I second that on the Power Service 911, it is dangerous stuff it will make your engine run very hot.
Diesel fuel in winter for new 1026R
Just wondering what is best (in this part of eastern Nebraska, typically out moving snow in 15-25 degree temperatures):
1. Just use #2 diesel
2. Use #2 with an additive, or perhaps with kerosene or gasoline added?
3. Use only #1 diesel in winter (I guess it will be available somewhere... )
In terms of starting the tractor, I had the dealer install a tank heater before I took delivery... so, starting will not be an issue (if the fuel will run).
Am not used to operating a diesel in the winter... been moving snow with gasoline! Any suggestions on how best to "manage" the diesel fuel for the 1026R will be appreciated!
