<p>The color of fuel indicates the fuels age or bacteria growth. The dark color is coming from one or the other.</p>
<h4>To fix old diesel remove the water first.</h4>
<p>Less than 50 gallons of fuel consider <a href="https://dieselcraft.com/products/">Mr Funnel</a> to remove the water.<br />
<img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-8950" src="https://dieselcraft.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/MR-FUNNEL-300x286.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="286" srcset="https://dieselcraft.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/MR-FUNNEL-300x286.jpg 300w, https://dieselcraft.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/MR-FUNNEL.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></p>
<p>Once the water is gone he can then filter out the solids. BUT filtering may take LOTS of filters so we are back to how many gallons do we have?</p>
<p>If you have an older engine with mechanical injection as long as the big solids are removed the engine will be fine&#8230;but get the water out&#8230;no engines like water.</p>
<p>If you have hundreds of gallons you need to use an additive to speed up the cleaning and a fuel &#8220;polishing&#8221; service or machine. <a href="http://dieselcraft.com/fuel-tank-cleaning-chemicals/">http://dieselcraft.com/fuel-tank-cleaning-chemicals/</a></p>
