Diesel Fuel Anti-foam Additive Usage
I'm installing a polishing system on our 75 gallon diesel tank patterned after one Maine Sail showed for his new tank a while back, and it should turn over a full tank in just over an hour. The Inca brand tank has extra ports for a generator (feed and return) and a single 'aux' port, what ever that is. I'll use the generator ports even though they are not optimal as in the tank Maine Sail built. I'm concerned that the return fuel will create foam since there is no internal tubing in the return port to near the bottom of the tank.
Can the fuel become aerated enough to cause trouble for the injector pump? Would the use of anti-foam additive help? I found mention of its use in a forum of diesel truck owners.
Thanks, Dan.
