So, being I'm younger this seemed odd to me, figured I'd ask if anyone else ever heard this..
In a manual for my diesel pickup, as I was leafing through it, I saw it said don't use galvanized cans to store fuel in as an additive in fuel will dissolve the galvanizing and in turn damage injectors..
Could/would this really happen? I mean I guess if it's in print, it must, right?
I can see where the zinc/galvanizing can leave a deposit on the injector tips, keeping them from opening/closing as they should.. But really, would the coating come off the can, just like that?
I will add it was getting later in the day yesterday when I read that, and I was beginning to wonder what I was gonna learn for the day.. Guess that was it.
