The constantly changing temperature of the fuel in the tanks caused condensation.
The condensation gets into the filters, pumps and injectors.
When the truck is shut down, the condensation can freeze in the tank and filters.
The moisture in the tank will cause microbe activity in the tank and the results are sludge and clogged filters.
Here are the symptoms:
- Sooty exhaust
- Excessive fuel consumption
- High rate of injector failure
- Low power
- Difficult starts
- Excessive fuel pump wear
Fortunately the solutions are easy.
