Of course there is a possibility that unsaturated compounds interact in the

to expect big problems. But, there are other ways for the fuel to get in

your blanket condemnation could indeed harm the good guys. For one
thing, though you might be well aware of the difference, you

Hello.
You are doing the right thing. But, remember that a high FFA content
usually is managed with NaOH or KOH in excess or by a pre-staged acid

Hi,
I don't believe that the Duramax, the engine designed by Isusu, was introduced
by GM until 2001. The 6.5 engine you are referring to in the 1995 model year is
a totally different engine. Unless, of course, someone changed the engine to
the more recent Duramax.
