Rob, the absorbent pads can collect the fuel (and they don’t absorb water). I had very good results with these: http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/gas-guzzler-sweep-hydrocarbon-absorbing-pad-0381326p.html. They come in at least two sizes; the large (and thick) one and smaller (and more useful) (at the link).
If you are looking at eliminating the odours, then there is the Pure Ayre (http://www.pureayrecanada.com/products/marine/) product that does a decent job. good luck Marek 1994 C270 Legato Ottawa, ON From: robert via CnC-List Sent: Monday, August 28, 2017 08:48 To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: robert Subject: Stus-List Diesel Spill A few weeks ago, I spilled approx. a half a cup or 200 mls of diesel in the engine compartment that made its way under the cabin floor boards to the bilge. I have flushed several times with Dawn liquid detergent and hot water, however, there is still a trace of the diesel which I would like to eliminate. Every time a pump the bilge now, there is a hint of fuel in the discharge which is annoying to all. Is there a specific product anyone has used successfully to eliminate the diesel that is more effective than liquid soap?
