I agree with the clean dry fuel, but those are low pressure (comparatively) fuel systems, not the new 30,000 psi units.


30,000 psi is used to hydrocut metal. I wonder if the pressures are really that high or is that just what the pressure would be if the injector failed to open?

sry...off topic...

I don't know, that's the pressure they are using in that 80+ page HPFP thread (actually 2000 bar and 1 bar = 14.7 psi)

You do that, Newsie. If you keep bloviating, maybe I will be able to get a good deal on a nice diesel Ram or 7.3 Super Duty.

Of course, short of having a record of every tank of fuel, you have no way of knowing if a truck ran on bio-diesel. Even fuel records might not tell the whole story if a station doesn't call out a bio blend on the receipt.
