Problem-Contaminated Fuel
Lower sulfur
content in fuel creates 3 major problems:
Increased bacterial contamination,
Reduced fuel lubricity
and Reduction in fuel quality.
Microbial organisms that enter your fuel systems (through vents,
standing water tank bottoms or contamination during transport
or delivery) live in the water and feed off the hydrocarbons
in your fuel. As they grow, their waste produces water, sludge,
acids and other harmful by-products that remain in your fuel
tank and affect engine performance and cause damage due to corrosion
and acid waste from microorganisms.
The reduction of sulfur in modern fuels automatically reduces
the lubricity of fuel, which is crucial and relied on for lower
maintenance and long term operation.
"Whether you captain a commercial vessel, or own and operate
your own recreational power or fishing boat, liquid fuel catalysts
that combat fungas and other microbial life have become essentional
in keeping your craft operting at is best performance level."--AJ

Symptom--Poor Performance
If you are using
diesel or gasoline products, you most likely have a bacterial
contamination problem and you are not aware of it. And you most
likely have a lack of lubricity in your fuel from the reduced
sulfur in todays fuel products.
The most noticeable problems these conditions cause are:
Black plugged fuel filters
Hazy dark fuel
Sludge build-up in the fuel and storage tanks
Low RPM’s and smoke
Poor engine performance
Lower horsepower output
Slower acceleration
Hard start
Slower fuel flow (hesitation)
Injector tip wear
Corrosion build-up in the entire fuel system
Engine wear (cylinder walls, valve seats, etc.) |
Solution--AJX Perfect Fuel Products
Keeping petroleum
products dry and clean is crucial to the performance of any
diesel or gasoline engine. A sterile fuel system means lower
maintenance costs, and keeps your craft in peak operating condition.
Most of the problems associated with bad engine performance
are caused by contaminated fuel and can easily be avoided by
adding AJX Perfect Fuel Products and following a simple maintenance
program.
The proof is in the filter....
“After 24 hours your filters will be tan or brown,
and after 72 hours you should get between 500 and 700 hours
on a filter. This is your proof the product really works. Tell
your friends.”—AJ "YOU BE THE JUDGE" |
