I'm wondering the same question, I have 2 full tanks of home heating oil in my basement that is sitting there for the past 4 years now, is this oil still usable? I'd like to pump it out and give it to someone who uses heating oil.
Yes, you can store diesel fuel in a home tank. It will be important that you store it in a tank designed to hold diesel fuel and that it is stored outside in a location that will not create hazardous or safety concerns. You also need to maintain the tank and the fuel properly.
If you are referring to a kerosene space heater, it can be used with diesel fuel, but it ill give off a very strong odor, and the wick will become clogged much faster. If you are referring to a house furnace fuel tank, then yes. The fuel found in most home "oil" furnaces is the exact same thing as off-road diesel.
No. Do not put unleaded gas in a diesel tank.
2001 ford diesel has a 36 gallon tank
Yes you can; According to "FlashOffRoad" "Kerosene is routinely added to home heating oil, in large quantities. The furnace doesn't know, or care. The furnace oil pump does not have the same clearances (they are more crude, greater clearances, lower pressure...) and the kerosene won't hurt them. Most will (and often do) run on straight kerosene--here in NH, if the oil tank is outside, the mix will be either 50/50 or straight kerosene. Kerosene doesn't have the same heat values either, you won't get the same amount of power from a gallon of kerosene as from heating oil, or diesel fuel." See full article for more detail <http://flashoffroad.com/Diesel/DieselFuel/about_diesel_fuel.htm> Personally though, I wouldn't add more than 10 gallons per 275 tank full just to be safe.
no
it is under the car,near the diesel tank
yes if there is hole in the diesel tank in motor
the diesel tank capacity for a 2001 306 Hdi is approx £80 so around 55litres
Yes if your tank is empty but not if it has some diesel in it, But not if your car runs on gasoline.
A small amount of hydraulic oil mixed with a full tank of diesel fuel, nothing.
The water sinks and pools at the bottom of the tank
