A blend of additives to give complete protection from the undesirable effects of Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel (ULSD) and BioDiesel:
- Prevents degradation and the growth of diesel bug
- Increases Cetane number for easier starting
- Contains a lubricant, detergent, and demulsifier
- Reduces fuel system and injector deposits to zero
- Reduces emissions and improves fuel consumption
Suitable for all diesel engine types and all diesel fuels. Dose DFC at the rate of 100ml per 100 litres of fuel, overdosing will not harm your engine
WHY YOU NEED DIESEL TREATMENTS
Diesel has fundamentally changed. Modern diesel is distilled from a poorer quality substrate and environmental regulations require the addition of biodiesel and the removal of sulphur. Biodiesel degrades in a fashion you would expect of an organic product and removal of a natural biocide in the form of sulphur has opened the hatch to microbial contamination by yeast, mould and bacteria - a triple threat known as "Diesel Bug". In addition, modern engines now operate under much greater stress with a reduced tolerance for imperfect fuel.
Most diesel fuel is used within 18 – 24 days of leaving the refinery so there is no requirement to prepare it for longer term storage in boats and tanks.
Whilst diesel fuel additives won’t improve consumption or power, they will preserve them.
THE BIG PROBLEM IS WATER
Water is by far the single most destructive contaminant in a diesel tank. Modern diesel particularly in the form of biodiesel absorbs moisture from the air. If the tank has a drain plug extract the water regularly.
Free water gives rise to microbes, the Diesel Bug. Diesel emulsified with water undermines the natural lubrication of diesel, wearing and rusting engine, and can result in clogging and injector failure.
Kill Clean Protect
IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM
Diesel Bug Test kit is used to check for microbial contamination of diesel fuels in boats, storage tanks, etc.
KILL DIESEL BUGS
If you have diesel bug Marine 16 Diesel Bug Treatment will kill it!
CLEAN DEPOSITS AWAY
Marine 16 Diesel Injector Cleaner is a once only treatment to remove deposits that have found their way into the fuel pump and injectors.
PROTECT FROM DIESEL BUGS
We worked in the lab to create a unique additive package, built specifically to counter the problems of modern diesel and the ever increasing Bio content. To keep your diesel fresh and fit for purpose use our Diesel Fuel Complete.
