[QUOTE="RustyC, post: 617396, member: 1997"] Exactly. Diesel is way more oily/ waxy than gas. The transfer/priming pump, high pressure pump and injectors depend of that oily nature of the fuel to lubricate those components. As a Cat diesel mechanic I'll give my option and what I would request if it was my truck. Electric fuel pump in tank, high pressure pump and injectors plus fuel and filters be replace without question. That is what I would do if I had to stand behind the repair. To the op. You chose to support the station and in turn you are now in this situation. Not your fault today or 10k miles from now. Push to get these components to be replaced. They all depend on the fuel for lubrication and now have a severely shortened life because of the gas contamination. [/QUOTE]
