Please don't burn RUG in that car, there aren't that many of them left.

How recently did you start blending in the biodiesel? Also if you are blending 3 gallons of biodiesel, put the biodiesel in first and then the petroleum diesel.

Since I still have half a tank, I am assuming that I might re-plug the filter and must keep an eye on it. I was wondering whether adding a gallon or so of RUG would help "de-gunk" whatever might be left in the tank? Tim
