Water Finding Paste (85 gms). Detects harmful water in Fuel / Heating Oil Tanks

Product Information

When water enters the fuel system, it can disrupt the combustion process and cause engine misfires or stalling. One of the first steps in treating water-contaminated diesel fuel is to bleed the fuel system. This process involves removing the air and any water present in the fuel lines and components. Water contamination can also affect the fuel filters, clogging them and reducing their efficiency. To restore optimal filtration and remove any residual water, it is essential to replace the fuel filters and flush the system.

Authorisation for the return of products which fail to meet current published manufacturers specifications must be requested in writing within 28 days of delivery. VWR will assist customers, at customers’ expense, to obtain any manufacturer’s warranty consistent with that granted to VWR.

However, it is important to choose additives that are specifically designed for diesel fuel and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for proper usage. Fuel Tank Maintenance It is strictly limited to repair of the apparatus in VWR’s workshops or to the customer. If the repair is not possible, it is limited to the replacement of non-compliant or defective good. By express agreement, absolutely excluded from VWR warranty are any damages, particularly for labor costs, loss of earnings, disturbance of business, etc. The spare parts are under warranty 3 months after their installation if such installation was performed by a person certified by VWR. Another symptom of water in diesel fuel is engine misfires or stalls. The water can disrupt the combustion process and cause the engine to misfire, leading to a rough running engine. In some cases, the engine may even stall completely, leaving you stranded on the side of the road. Engine misfires and stalls are not only inconvenient but can also be dangerous, especially if they occur while driving at high speeds or in heavy traffic. Increased Fuel Consumption Water in diesel fuel can also make it more challenging to start your engine. The water can interfere with the ignition process, making it harder for the fuel to ignite and for the engine to start. You may find yourself having to crank the engine multiple times before it finally starts. This can be particularly problematic in colder weather conditions when the presence of water can cause the fuel to freeze, making it even more difficult to start the engine. Engine Misfires or Stalls

If you suspect significant water contamination in your diesel fuel, draining the fuel tank becomes necessary. This method allows you to remove the majority of the water that has accumulated at the bottom of the tank.All intellectual property rights in or arising out of or in connection with the products and services shall be owned by VWR. Regularly draining water from the fuel system is a crucial preventive measure to minimize the risk of water contamination in diesel fuel. Water can accumulate in the fuel tank or settle at the bottom of the fuel filter, potentially causing damage to the engine. VWR’s warranty applies exclusively in the event of deficiencies resulting from a defect in design or from a hidden defect affecting the goods delivered and rendering it unfit for use. When the external temperature begins to increase during the summer months, the tanks internal temperature is cooler than the outside climate. This causes moist air to cool inside of the tank and water vapour in the air to produce water on the inner walls. Since water is heavier and denser than most liquid fuels, this produces a layer of water that settles at the bottom of the tank. maintain the products in satisfactory condition and keep them insured against all risks for their full price on VWR's behalf from the date of delivery;

The fuel filter plays a crucial role in removing contaminants from the fuel before it reaches the engine. Regular inspection of the fuel filter can also help identify water in diesel fuel. Begin by locating the fuel filter, which is typically located along the fuel line between the fuel tank and the engine. Carefully remove the fuel filter and inspect it for any signs of water contamination. If you notice any water droplets or a significant amount of water, it is a clear indication of water in the fuel system. Fuel Sample Testing We recommend ensuring your tank is topped up year-round to help reduce the risk of condensation in your tank and also reduces the risk of your tank running dry. Not filling your tank can leave room for air which can increase the chance of condensation.

Health & Safety Additionally, keeping the fuel tank clean and free from debris is important. Sediments and contaminants in the fuel tank can contribute to water contamination. Periodically cleaning the fuel tank and removing any accumulated debris will help maintain the quality of the diesel fuel. Draining Water from Fuel System
