Marine diesel fuel
I'm in California, and I have a 1990 model sailboat with a Volvo
two cylinder diesel engine. My question is ..... is there a difference between "marine diesel fuel" that you buy in a marina, and the typical diesel fuel for cars and trucks? Will car/truck diesel fuel harm my marine engine? The reason I ask is that I vaguely recall that changes in deisel fuel formulation for over the road vehicles, made to meet emissions regulations, might harm marine engines, and accordingly that diesel fuel sold in marinas is different than that sold for cars/trucks ??? |
