Diesel fuel quality and protection from expensive fuel system repairs

The heart of the diesel engine is its fuel injection system and the biggest enemy of this equipment is poor quality fuel, or more frequently contaminated fuel.
Modern electronic high pressure diesel injection systems are susceptible to poor quality or contaminated fuel. Water is without doubt the main culprit, it somehow seems to find its way into fuel tanks all too often!
The cost of repairing damage caused by contamination can be huge, so prevention is better than cure. So how can you be safeguarded against costly repairs caused by poor quality or contaminated fuel?

  • Buy your diesel from a reputable, known source.
  • Replace fuel filters regularly, don’t wait until a light on the dash reminds you, by then it’s too late.
  • Consider installing an additional fuel filter/water separator assembly
  • Regularly drain the water trap/sedimenter if fitted on the vehicle.
  • Clean, clean, clean: Fuel cannot be too clean. It should be filtered at every movement; Bulk tank to fuel trailer, fuel trailer to vehicle tank, vehicle tank to injection system. Go overboard! Filters are cheap insurance.
  • Use a quality fuel additive to improve lubricity & protect against gumming & algae.
