What's the best way to add fuel additive for long storage so it's distributed in both tanks? Assuming I start with one tank empty and the other less than half full and then fill both tanks.
Should I:
- Add additive at beginning of fill, then drive for, say, 100 km. Does the fuel circulate through both tanks?
- Add 1/2 additive at start of fill; after ensuring first tank is full, add 1/2 additive and complete fill.
- Fill tanks then add additive.
Our Prado (D4D) will be sitting for a few months in N Qld i.e. warm and moist. It'll be driven every 3 weeks or so, but not far.
I've heard it's best to store vehicles with tanks full - is this still correct, or outdated info?
Thanks!
