rollazuki:
How cold does it have to get to wax?????
I thought it was about -18c



Can it happen at lower temps?

Disco Geordie:
Seems it can I'm the evidence :cry:

I used to drive a L/R in Norway and we had the Diesel and Parafin(?) mixed already, if we do it ourselves what kind of ratio should it be?

I had the same problem earlier this year with my series.
First thing the AA guy who came out to look at when it wouldnt start was "Have you been using supermarket diesel"
It seems that they put less anti waxing agent in cheeper diesel to keep costs down.

I think diesel will frezze at -18 but will wax at about -10 and with the way the weathers been up here the last couple of days it would seem thats the problem

Oh buy the way Neil
Thats a pint you owe me and Craig (EACH)

 :wink:
