What to Do If There Is Water in Diesel Fuel?
1 Answers
Since oil and water are immiscible, with oil being lighter and floating on top while water, being heavier, sinks to the bottom, the two form distinct layers that are easily visible. Before collecting the fuel, release half a bucket of oil from the bottom outlet of the fuel tank to check for water and other impurities. If there is only a small amount of water, simply drain this portion.
