Diesel Bug Problems - Microbial Contamination of Diesel-best auto zone


Diesel fuel is the very lifeblood of industry worldwide...
There is a however a hidden living world inside diesel fuel; diesel is a complex delicately balanced distillation product of crude oil. It is not a mineral fuel it is organic. It is not just fuel for engines, it is also fuel/food for a host of microscopic fungi, yeasts and bacteria. These are commonly referred to as "diesel bug."
Diesel is a marvelous environment for growth of these bugs. There is water for germination, a carbon source for food, dissolved oxygen and sulfur for respiration and trace elements for growth. These living contaminants of fuel cannot be left out; they enter the fuel as spores in water or air. In a single sample of diesel, laboratory analysis is likely to reveal as many as 27 different varieties.
One harmful fungus is invariable present in great numbers Cladisporium Resinae.
Once present in diesel fuel this bug can be responsible for a costly array of problems all of which can lead to total system failures. Of particular concern is emergency power units. Here Cladisporium can multiply freely while the unit is unused and cause a total failure in an emergency. The same situation may be true for any diesel appliance where fuel has been stored for some time e.g. Marine craft, on site storage units, farm machinery, road maintenance plant, country garages, 4WD's etc.
The powerful acids these bugs can produce blow diesel pumps, can corrode and pit; pumps, fuel tanks, hoses and can destroy costly injector nozzles. Even small amounts of contamination leads to poor fuel economy, shortened service intervals, excessive blocked filters, poor performance and increased costs to maintain plant Microbial contamination of your fuel can cause consequences every bit as horrifying as an infection of your own bloodstream.
There is now however a simple one step plan that can help eliminate bugs from your fuel. The DE-BUG fuel treatment unit. This unit is easily fitted in the fuel line of your diesel appliance before or after your existing filtration, once installed is guaranteed to significantly reduce diesel bug.
