Few days ago I came back from my trip in Oman and UAE.
Roro: I'm 100% sure about gas station in Turkmenabab, and I saw also gas station on the road to Darvaze (I think it was near Yerbent).
During my trips I had only 2 times problems with diesel.
First in Tajikistan when I bought poor diesel (with water) and had problems morning on 4 600 m (when was little freze)
Second in my last trip. It was sometimes -15C in Turkey or -8C in Iran.
I fill all my fuel in Iran but the diesel is not with water but rather poor value.
Morning in Dogubaiazit with -6C I had problems with Defender engine (2.4TD), but not any problem with Toyota HZJ 4.2. So definitivly it is not a water (it is more expensive than fuel in Iran) but poor, dirty fuel. After 2 hours with mixing new fuel and preparation for fuel we had succesivelly start.
