1. Free methanol in FAME may result in corrosion of aluminum and zinc FIE
components.
2. Free water in FAME may result in plugging of fuel filters and increased
bacterial growth.
3. High viscosity at low temperatures may result in fuel delivery problems,
injection pump seizures and poor injection nozzle spray atomization.
4. FAME may have adverse effects on some elastomers (seal materials) and
may result in fuel leakage and dilution of the engine lubricating oil.
5. Even bio-diesel fuels that comply with a suitable standard as delivered will
require additional care and attention to maintain the quality of the fuel in the
equipment or other fuel tanks. It is important to maintain a supply of clean,
fresh fuel. Regular flushing of the fuel system and/or fuel storage containers
may be necessary.
6. The use of bio-diesel fuels that do not comply with the standards as agreed
to by the diesel engine manufacturers and the diesel fuel injection equipment
manufacturers, or bio-diesel fuels that have degraded as per the precautions
and concerns above, may affect the warranty coverage of your engine.
