Here we had a product called marine gas oil or various other names that was not diesel but could be used in diesel engines. There was a price savings. However, some found it more susceptible to algae growth. Our Corps patrol boat developed a serious problem with algae and we stopped using it. My understanding was that the CG here stopped as well. I go to a station where I see a lot of trucks and of course use a conditioner. I especially use a sulfur conditioner since my engine was built before the new low sulfur rules. Can't remember what it is right now. Ron Wild Cheri C&C 30-1 STL

The article did not go into detail as to whether or not there is actually a difference between the two. I always thought that a 'diesel engine' whether marine or otherwise burned the same fuel Was this simply the 'writer's interpretation' in that diesel used for marine purposes is somehow different from diesel used for say, diesel powered automobiles? This is probably a stupid question and if so, tell me.
