Did you know that the cause of most tractor diesel engine problems originates in the fuel tank? In this post, we will look at diesel fuel-related problems in your tractor's engine.
There are several symptoms to look out for that may preclude any problems occurring in your tractor:
Sludge build up in the tank- excess smoke
- dark hazy fuel
- unpleasant odor emissions
- loss of power & RPM
- clogged filters
Did you know that over 90 percent of slime and sludge build-up in gas tanks are mainly caused by fuel and oil breakdown residue? This sludge leads to corrosion in the injectors, pumps, and storage tanks.
Adding a diesel fuel additive like Bell Performance's DEE-ZOL can prevent all of these symptoms from occurring. DEE-ZOL is a lab-proven, low-cost solution to diesel engine sludge build-up.
