Is it best to have my fuel tank as full as possible when I put my bus in storage? What should I add to the fuel, if anything? Thanks!

A full tank reduces condensation which turns to water. A biocide will deter nasty bacteria growing in there. I would advise both since I have been troubled by bad fuel in the past.

Da Book has a complete procedure for putting your DD to storage ,
esp usefull if its going to be months or before re use begins.

Mark, Garry Dean, among others, has both maintenance and part manuals for coaches. They aren't cheap, but still the best investment a mechanic/ owner can make. Garry's number is (919) 383-4780.

Best biocide I've used is Howe's Diesel Supplement. At one time mine was so bad, I changed primary and secondary filters five times within one hundred miles. (You could also try your local airport for Prist, but you probably won't want to pay the toll.) Cheers...JJ

Be sure to fill the fuel tank again AFTER you get home , that way the tank will be really full.

We use Bio Bore , which is a boat product , can for a few years is about $12.
