Motor Fuel Testing

 

Motor Fuel Aging: Some things age gracefully, but fuel doesn't. Fuel ages because it becomes "chemically unstable". So what is the result of this aging process and incomplete combustion? Your fleet vehicles do not perform as designed. During an electrical power failure, emergency generators often start, sputter and then fail to operate under the full electrical load of your facility.  Remember that emergency generator test on Monday? Is your generator ready to perform? What usually happens is that the full  building load is being tested. The good news is, this aging process can be halted and even reversed. We offer recommendations and/or solutions for restoring the fuel.

Fuel testing and analysis has become a very important part of our day-to-day lives and can get right to the heart of a problem with operation of your vehicle or stationary generator. The dramatic changes that have occurred in formulations from gasoline to diesel have affected all of us. If you are having trouble with performance it could be the fuel you’re using. Injector deposits, worn fuel pumps all could be fuel related. Worse yet, someone may have vandalized your fuel tank without you knowing.

EPC will arrage to test your fuel through our contract laboratory. For more information contact us.
