Can it cause any harm to engine or tank?
Can you see anything red coming [...]
I always thought the Americans shyed away from diesel and even their big trucks ran on unleaded? With fuel prices ever increasing has diesel power caught on in the US? If so what cars are you driving over there?

The battery manufacturing issues are a myth. [...]
I’m looking for 5-10 yr old cars and truck that run on diesel that hold their value. I found a 05 Mercedes e320 CDI that is worth 250% of original value and a VW Jetta that is 164% original value. My husband asked me to do this search so I’m not sure what he is [...]
