[diesel_mercedes] Fungus In Your Fuel

 




Thoughts ? HELL YES ! .

Don't patronize the filling station on Lake Av. and Union Street in Pasadena , Ca. ! .

As long as there's no black crud in the bottom of your clear platic primary fuel filter , adding 8 oz. of Startron once a year is a very good prophylactic measure .

Good plan. I wonder if this is some failing of the particular retailer
that grows this fungus. Old, poorly maintained tank or some such.
Not that I have a choice here, but if you aren't having this problem,
being wary of strange retailers might be indicated.


Any thoughts, anybody?
