Well I've heard of putting gas in diesel tanks, but I think I may have made the stupidist blunder of all.
I couldn't find RedLine so I bought some Howes Lubricator from a truck stop that was recommended by a truck driver. The bottle for the additive looks just like (only smaller) Kit Carnauba Wash and Wax. You guessed it.. I put about a 1/4 cup (at the most) of the car wash stuff in the tank. I then added the diesel treatment (a lot of it) and filled up the tank.. hoping to dilute the situation. In any event, does anyone have any ideas on what damage could be done? I know I can drain the tank etc., but will 1/4 cup of the wrong stuff mess everything up badly? I thought about driving the car and when it uses 1/4 tank, then fill it up again to keep diluting it etc. How about some opinions, please??? ..about the problem, not my stupidity ![]()
