In some instances, the introduction of ULSD fuel to older vehicles may affect fuel system components or loosen deposits in fuel tanks.


Yeah, I heard Cummins had an issue with that. Don't remember all of the details though.

Come on now, let's quote old Yul/Pharoah right - "So let it be written, so let it be done." :lol:

Found that part about asphaltenes cooking out and forming tar when diesel is subjected to high temps interesting. Perhaps another good reason for having a fuel cooler installed.
