#9 Have we got the dreaded DIESEL BUG? | Narrowboat maintenance while the canals are in LOCKDOWN 🐜

We've had issues with our engine since we first broke down in Penkridge last summer (see our second vlog) and while there some parts that need replacing, the main cause of our problem seems to have been water in the fuel. In this vlog we check our diesel tank for water and.other nasties like the dreaded diesel bug using a pump to extract the red diesel and the residue from the bottom. We're no diesel bug experts, that's for sure! So please leave us a comment if you can provide any insight into what lurks in the depths of our diesel tank 💬 Are you looking to check your tank for water or diesel bug too? Below are links to the products we used in the video as well as the Diesel Fuel Treatment we have ordered from Amazon to treat diesel bug. The copper attachment seen in the video can be fashioned from a piece of copper tube. 🛒 Check out products from the vlog here on Amazon: Fluid Extractor Pump: https://amzn.to/2yeKFqj Copper Tube to fashion attachment: https://amzn.to/2z7ovXv Diesel Fuel Treatment to prevent diesel bug: https://amzn.to/2XG4MYP ⏱ Missed the last episode?
