• The diesel fuel sits for years without being fully used.
• The fuel is vented to atmosphere so it is constantly being exposed to airborne bacteria.
• CSA 282-05 dictates that the fuel be cleaned or replaced yearly.
• During load testing only small amounts of fuel are being used from the relatively clean day tank.
• The fuel tanks are difficult to access.
• The fuel tanks are prone to moisture from leaking, condensation and ventilation.
• The tanks are corroding due to moisture buildup.
• The pumps and injectors are prone to damage due to fuel contamination and moisture.

Standby power has become a necessity in today's marketplace. Power grid problems have forced us to think about backup power. Large data centers, hospitals, municipal, and federal facilities are all installing very expensive backup generators and support systems to prevent human loss as well as data loss. However, all of these systems have one common problem, poor fuel quality. We do not know the quality of fuel that is delivered. We do not take shelf life into account. We do understand filter stoppage. We have grown accustomed to having clogged filters.

In the blackout of 2003, diesel failures were at extreme levels. The primary cause by far of those failures was poor quality fuel that was clogging filters, ruining injectors and causing the engines to stall, smoke and not produce the power required to run the generator. We have accepted the dead of night service calls and emergency response tactics used in order to keep our equipment operating in a time of need.
