We are going to the Cape in June and have heard conflicting reports on the quality of the diesel fuel available.
Has anybody had any problems with diesel fuel quality at
Cape York

Done the cape 20 odd times and to date not had a problem.
Usually have 6 4x4s with us and never had a issue with any.
All the best

Did CY last year early (May) and there were no issues fuel wise. One car in our group ended up with a little water in the deisel water trap. Who knows were it came from though, may have been prior to CY. By June most
places will have emptied there storage tanks at least once, it is a busy place.
