That black specked gunk is what we are fighting. Every tractor that we use regularly in the cold has been effected.
The loader tractor is on its 7 th filter in two days. I have pumped the tank dry twice and flushed it out when empty but still getting the specks of black stuff in the filters.
On the feeder wagon tractor I just removed the tank and washed it out with muriatic acid an hot water. That got the stuff out of it. Took all the paint off the outside too but it is clean. On Monday it took three filters just to empty the first load of feed.
Fuel man delivered fuel Friday afternoon. Everyone he filled with that load is having trouble. HE claims the company will stand the costs. My question to him was what about lost time and labor of cleaning everything???
The main fuel tank is getting replaced with a new tank in the morning. I am not chancing what ever is in it on any other tractors.
Other than the one feeder wagon tractor and the loader tractor I just switched tractors around to ones that we did not fuel up.
Then we have been working between chores to get the effected ones flushed and cleaned up.
