Default fuel

Shell fuel has had its problems in the past and alot of sites ended up with a fine rusty mash sitting in the bottom of there under ground tanks real hard to clean out, I worked in the industry for 10 years the stuff in the under ground tanks as some mechanics would have come across in cars drys in to a fine powder looks like rust, ive heard it still gives problems now and then mostly straight after a fuel delivery stirs every thing up, it settles real quick but you may have been unlucky Gordon, You here people bag out united fuel but the united BOOST 98 with 10% ethanol is the best ive found in my octaine detector ute (12.8 to 1 ) Give it a go if you get the chance
