Yep - it doesn't have to be old fuel either - Dad got a semi transport load this past season from the local supplier and we immediately started having problems in several things.

It is so dry and arid out here that you normally don't ever have to worry about water or condensation getting into the diesel (as I understand it, there has to be a little water somewhere in the fuel to get the bacteria started), that it took us a while to figure out what was happening. When we confronted the supplier, they said "yes, we HAVE had some problems" and the guy pulled a case of algae kill treatment out from under the counter and gave it to Dad.

They offered to send a truck out to recycle and filter the fuel, too...
