What are the effects of using low-quality diesel on vehicles?
1 Answers
Using low-quality diesel can lead to clogged diesel filters, injector nozzle blockages, and engine carbon buildup. The following are the impacts of using low-quality diesel: 1. Diesel filter clogging: Prolonged use of low-quality diesel causes impurities in the fuel to adhere to and clog the diesel filter, resulting in poor fuel supply and reduced power. This not only shortens the replacement cycle of the diesel filter but may also damage the fuel pump due to impurity blockages. 2. Injector nozzle clogging: Some impurities in low-quality diesel adhere to the diesel filter, while others bypass the filtration and directly pass through the injector nozzle. Over time, the injector nozzle will also become clogged, affecting vehicle performance and causing premature failure of the injector nozzle. 3. Engine carbon buildup: Impurities in impure diesel fuel turn into carbon deposits inside the engine cylinders after combustion. Excessive carbon deposits can lead to unstable idling, weak acceleration, and increased fuel consumption.
