Diesel Fuel Quality is a Question Not a Guarantee

Conclusion
There is no good time to find out that your engine won't operate or that half its life span is gone prematurely because of contaminated or poor quality diesel fuel. Since no one can predict a breakdown, the only safe method is prevention.
Realize now that you do have a problem, and manage it now, or deal with the unexpected catastrophe and reduced equipment life that comes at the absolutely wrong time and is not in the budget!

Bad Fuel Blows Up Engine, What Next?
(11/12/08 - 12:30 PM)
Excellent article, but I missed one critical thing. What recourse do you have when bad fuel blows up an engine?? We (QT Equipment) recently had this problem with a new chassis that was under warranty. The dealer and manufacturer (which will remain nameless for now) laid the blame on us. Without spending big bucks in attorneys fees investigating and going after everyone in the supply chain for diesel, is there anything else that can be done?
