Need help, bad fuel?
To-night I filled up on diesel and now the truck won't rev above @ 1200 rpm.
It smokes like crazy, pops and carries on, this was about 3 miles after I filled up with blended Biodiesel (didn't see the label until hanging up the nozzle).
Have tried the 911 stuff and no real help.
It smokes really blue and smells like a diesel does when you start one out cold, without warming it up.
It idles normally, too.
I liken it to an old gas burner with really bad points and an over rich carb.
Any idea how to fix this in a quick way?
Down on funds and a tank of fuel wasted is a big deal.
Thanks for any help and sorry to make a plea for help after a long hiatus.
