Fuel System Analysis

 

Every good maintenance program should include regular fuel testing to determine fuel quality. Fuel that does not meet industry specifications or contains contaminants can dramatically decrease engine performance and fuel system life, cause premature filter plugging and impact fuel economy. Adding regular fuel testing to the maintenance regimen ensures fuel quality issues are detected early to avoid operation downtime.
