I was interested in seeing if he/she would read their owners manual, and report back on what it stated.
um, that blend would destroy any diesel vehicle...
10% gasoline used to be recommended blended into a diesel tank in extreme cold temps... but not anymore. mixing RUG and KERO would be very very very bad for a diesel car...
