Hi Richard, As many folks have already noted, ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD) has been the standard since 2010. I use Biobor JF which is a Diesel Biocide and Lubricity Additive. I think most people don’t realize that Biobor is also a lube additive.
On another note mentioned by others, I faithfully use a Mr Funnel fuel filter when adding fuel to the tank. It will slow you down when you are fueling at a dock side pump, and most of the times the fuel is fine, but the times when you find water in the filter are a real eye opener. - Paul E. 1981 C&C 38 Landfall S/V Johanna Rose Carrabelle, FL http://svjohannarose.blogspot.com > On Oct 12, 2015, at 8:27 PM, cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com wrote: > > Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2015 12:39:13 -0400 > From: "Richard N.
