In regards to the fuel density compensator...David
Doyle has an article in this months Military Vehicles
that states that the compensator helps the engine run
more efficient but is not actually required for
multifuel operation. At least that is how I read it.
Not to be a smart aleck, but how hard is it to smell
it before pouring it in? However don't be too
embarrassed, read on.
Just today I was fueling up the milk truck that I
drive on occasion and was in the cab straightening
things up when I saw a plume of diesel fuel outside
the passenger window. What a mess. Just got done
cleaning the truck too. Next time I'll use a bungee
cord to keep it from falling out.
