I own and operate (Fuels&Lubes Tech.,LLC). We specialize in fuels testing and in particular in fuel related problems resolution.

Fuels today are better than what they were back 20 years ago.

Fuel cleanliness begins with the refinery. If they don't maintain their truck rack filtration systems, then look out. And it is the same with station maintenance, if they don't keep their tanks clean and change out the pump filters on a regular basis, you will have problems. Every now and then an independent distributor will do some home boy blending, using components, solvents, he picked up at the local paint shop, and introduce any area wide problem. Also let's not forget the guys making bio diesel, a lot of them don't know what they are doing and some off spec materials get in tanks. Last but not least we have some states that institute mandatory bio/ethanol requirements and that is splash blended causing above average additions or slugs to be mixed into our fuels.

The single biggest fuel problem we see is caused by sabotage.

Vandals who dump sugar into ex boy friend and girl friends vehicles. Or into someones vehicle who has wronged them. The second leading problem we encounter is from bacterial growth caused by water laden tanks and that all comes down to cleanliness.

THE END
