I was running late this morning, quickly threw my stuff in the car and fired it up. The fuel gauge was just a bit above empty. I don't have time to deal with this, so I drove off, hoping for the best. Not that I have time to run out of fuel and deal with that nightmare, but I didn't think much of it. I fueled up with 9 gallons of WVO on Sunday and typically I can get 4 days of driving from it. Today is Thursday, so I should be good until I get home tonight. Over the next 10 miles, my confidence dropped. "What if I don't have enough fuel to get home?" I don't have any veg oil in the trunk to do a fillup. And I don't want to stop at a gas station to buy diesel. Yeah, the car will run just fine on a tank of diesel or a mix of diesel & veg, but the reason I use veg for fuel is to get away from petrolium.

A few miles later, the fuel gauge, just a tad above empty, jumped up to a bit below 1/4 tank. That's more like it! The 300d was holding out on me. Or it found some extra fuel laying around. Either way, I feel better now, and know that I've got enough fuel to get home.

For best results, keep the tank filled above 1/4 tank.
