Prevent Costly Repairs with Proactive Fuel Maintenance

Fuel maintenance is often overlooked but plays a crucial role in ensuring reliable generator operation. Stationary fuel tanks are highly susceptible to contamination from water, bacterial growth, sediment buildup, and fuel degradation. Without proper maintenance, these issues can lead to costly repairs or fuel replacement.

Regular fuel sampling and testing allow for early detection of contaminants, enabling timely treatment with additives to maintain fuel quality and prevent system failures.

Fuel maintenance

What Are Some Common Fuel Concerns?

Diesel fuel begins to deteriorate within months of refinement, making proactive maintenance essential. Over time, fuel absorbs moisture, leading to microbial contamination, emulsification, and sediment buildup. As contamination increases, Cetane ratings drop, reducing fuel efficiency and performance.

Without proper fuel maintenance, particulates and sludge accumulate, clogging filters, injectors, and fuel pumps. The result? Excessive smoke, poor engine performance, and even system failure. Regular fuel testing and treatment help extend fuel life, reduce costly repairs, and ensure reliable generator operation.

Client Success

I want to thank the generator technician that came out to work on our generator system. I was contacted by my maintenance staff that our unit started and turned off during a routine test. He was unable to restart the unit. I contacted GEN-TECH through the after hours number and a technician was dispatched. After troubleshooting our system the issue appeared to be bad fuel. The generator technician educated me on the problems when Diesel fuel sits and is not tested for bacteria. They were able to get me up and running and started me on a fuel maintenance program.
