The website addresses questions related to diesel fuel cleanliness and its effect on equipment. Diesel that is technically within industry specifications is often too dirty for use in modern engines. It has to be cleaner than accepted levels, or it can cause any number of problems, from clogged onboard filters to complete injector failure.
“Many operators may not be aware they have a problem in their fuel tanks that can lead to significant downtime and expense,” said Scott Grossbauer, global manager of clean fuel and lubricant solutions at Donaldson.
“Worldwide diesel fuel supplies can be more than one thousand times dirtier upon delivery than what's recommended for use in modern diesel engines and, increasingly, owners find out too late that their diesel fuel has issues that can adversely affect uptime. MyCleanDiesel.com aims to educate all diesel users so they can seek out solutions before they experience a catastrophic incident.”
