Default Oil Fired central heating problem

Seriously then - if you have a tank full off kerosine contaminated with
sugar then you have a major problem. It will cost a serious amount of
dosh to dispose of a tank full of the stuff but you really have no
other option. You need to talk to the company who supplied the fuel
who should be able to organize it for you. - sorry.


Utter crap. If the tank has a significant amount of oil in it (anything
more than a few hundred litres), you'd need a very large amount of sugar
to make any difference to its burning behaviour.

If it only has a small amount of oil in it (100-200 litres), filling it
up with oil will dilute the sugar to a point where it'll make no
difference to the combustion.

I thought the OP was a troll - just in case it isn't, i very much doubt
that anyone's added sugar to your oil. I think you have another fault.
How much oil is there in the tank?
