Fuel Quality Critical for New Tier 4 Engines

“Today’s Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) is very different from the diesel of just a few years ago. Among other things, it is subject to change and contamination as it moves from the refinery to the engine, making storage, temperature, age and filtration highly critical factors in maintaining fuel quality.” – William Bernhard, Technical and Safety Services Manager for the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM). While AEM has identified some of the problems that occur when ULSD meets a Tier 4 engine, AFS has identified field-proven solutions. Source: Fuel Quality Critical for New Tier 4 Engines
