BigJohnny Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 I've only owned a car for about a year, and since I've been driving I've noticed that gas smells a lot more like kerosene now, where before it had a "gas" smell about it. Diesel is the same way, it smells much the same as gas, kerosene'ish ..... how has gas changed in the last 5 - 10 years other than nitrogen additives and shit? I only fill up at petro, but mostly only because its just around the corner from me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yahoo IM - kingsuv00If the listening level is too loud, please inform the driver, so he can promptly pull over, and let you out. not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more.

audiofanaticz Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 I dunno about gas smelling like kerosine, 2 completely different smells. but diesel and kerosine are almost idenical but I want to say kerosine is a cleaner fuel then diesel or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJohnny Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 (edited) Kerosene can be used as Diesel, I know they smell similar, but my regular gasoline also has a kerosene like smell about it. at least when i'm standing there filling up at the pump. I've added nothing to my fuel and used the same fuel since I've owned a car. Does Petro-Can put some kind of additive in the gas? I know there is some additive advertised on the pump.... most stations have something in it..... is this what the smell is?
