fuel gelling

No I have not. What additive do you or did you use?

 

I have not, But that does not mean its not possible.. I know some "additives" can bring the gelling point down, So instead of being safe up to neg 20 depending it can make it as much as Positive 20. With as much bio fuel as is in Diesel now adays anything is possible.

 

2 many ppl use lucas in fuel so they don't know wat their talking about, the only thing that cause fuel 2 gel is the cold and the colder the worst it is

 

read this thread.

don't know about lucas, most people use that other stuff. can't think of the name right now.

depending on where your at. if your up north. your going to be having problems. seems that some truckstops are still selling bio. which gells at 45 degrees. therefore, isn't used in the winter. yes, i used to haul the stuff.

if you fuel up in texas where it's warm, and you head to the north. i gelled up in casper wy. last year.

my last tank i filled up. northern utah. was pretty obvious it was bio. crap looked like pancake syrup. and the temps were 40 degrees. got to barstow cali. and had to change fuel filters.

where at, is your truck at the shop at? if it sat outside for a couple of days and your in the north. and you filled up from southern temps. i cn see it gelling from sitting around.

fuel can gell if you shut the truck down for 10 hours and use your webasto heater.

 

As cold as it has been in Amarillo my guess would be it gelled because of low temps.
