Bad times...now what?
#35
However - it is true that used engine oil *will* eventually destroy the CR system. It will destroy a VE pump also, it'll last a little longer, but will eventually destroy it, I've seen it done. In VE pumps, the fuel filter no matter how good cannot filter out some particles and will destroy the vane pump inside of them, the pump then cannot produce enough case pressure nor even pick the fuel up from the tank. I also call BS on this because you reckon you've changed the filter once - I remember a friend who used to run it in an XUD9, could manage to drive the 7 miles to work and on the way back, the filter would be so blocked, it'd require a new filter on the way home, otherwise it'd just stall.

It's also the acidity of engine oil that will destroy the seals from the combustion process.

Also lol at the fact you're saying it runs badly on red diesel - it's the same stuff - until about 2/3 years ago it had a lower Biodiesel proportion in it, but these days it is exactly the same stuff, just taxed differently, remember there's brand new tractors with just as modern High Pressure Commonrail systems onboard running on exactly the same fuel, Volvo Penta D3 & D4 engines are the same engine as the Volvo D5 installed in cars and they run happily on cherryade.

Only reason I'm posting this is so that people aren't out there going "this bloke did it and says it's OK" and wanging 50l of the finest tar into their tanks and wondering why after *some* period of time the entire lot is wrecked.
