Diesel is sometimes water pumped, and there end up traces of water in the product. Bacteria can grow in this and they leave really snotty deposits. It can be fatal to gas turbines when they run duel fuel applications. There are products that will keep this from happening.

BP will pay something (probably not enough) and they will just have to take what they get, and get on with life. > Are you personally making any money out of this tragedy? > If not, you have no reason for this point of view. ***** I call it as I see it. I have no monetary interest in this in any way.
