<VV> OLD FUEL?

[FrankCB at aol.com]

You're talking about putting diesel fuel into a  gasoline burning vheicle??  
Chances of diesel raising the octane rating of  gasoline are about the same as 
me getting a date with Paris Hilton!!!!   What kind of driving conditions in 
what sort of vehicle are giving you only 13.5  mpg???  My Minivan can get 28 
mpg (regular gas) on a long trip of 300+  miles on major highways.  I would 
instead suggest you make efforts at  improving your vehicle's efficiency and your 
driving methods to raise you  mpg.

Just  wondering, does old diesel fuel act the same as gas and break down to 
varnish,  or is it different? I ask because I have 2 gallons that are about 3 
years old.  I want to try a little diesel in the tank and then fill up so it 
mixes good.  It is supposed to raise the octane level, and give you better 
mileage because  it has more hydrocarbons that plain gas. I will try anything to 
get better  than 13.5 mpg. Any ideas?
