It is so dry and arid out here that you normally don't ever have to worry about water or condensation getting into the diesel (as I understand it, there has to be a little water somewhere in the fuel to get the bacteria started), that it took us a while to figure out what was happening. When we confronted the supplier, they said "yes, we HAVE had some problems" and the guy pulled a case of algae kill treatment out from under the counter and gave it to Dad. They offered to send a truck out to recycle and filter the fuel, too... HH
