Anyone experience fuel hose turning diesel orange? If my bulk tank isn't used for a week or two, the first gallon or so that comes out is orange. After it's fine. I have a section of 1" blue Arctic grade hose that came with the pump (came off a fuel truck) and then 3 sections of Arctic grade Fill Rite hose. Doesn't seem to be causing trouble in the fuel systems, but I don't get what's happening.
I've had fuel hose turn both diesel and gas orange. Switched to some kind of plastic fuel hose rather than 'rubber' ones. I have a couple of old machines that run off external ( 5 gallon) tanks with the hose stuffed and taped in the spout. I was hoping it was the exterior of the hose causing the problem....
Yeah. I recall running into that on your old Sitka fuel dock before the new dock went in. I blamed it on the Continental Redwing hose that is common in SE.
Those boots will turn feet orange.
Ulsd & diesel blends sitting in the hose act as a solvent , yesterday's hose may not work or rated with the new fuels.
This is the blue arctic hose. The stuff that makes you look like you got in a fight with a smurf if you touch it
