Testing Diesel Fuel; Fuel Filters - Worldwide Construction And Forestry Division 380GLC Operator's Manual

Testing Diesel Fuel

A fuel analysis program can help to monitor the quality
of diesel fuel. The fuel analysis can provide critical data
such as calculated cetane index, fuel type, sulfur content,
water content, appearance, suitability for cold weather

Fuel Filters

The importance of fuel filtration cannot be overemphasized
with modern fuel systems. The combination of increasingly
restrictive emission regulations and more efficient engines
requires fuel system to operate at much higher pressures.
Higher pressures can only be achieved using fuel injection
components with very close tolerances. These close

operations, bacteria, cloud point, acid number, particulate
contamination, and whether the fuel meets ASTM D975
or equivalent specification.

manufacturing tolerances have significantly reduced
capacities for debris and water.
John Deere brand fuel filters have been designed and
produced specifically for John Deere engines.
To protect the engine from debris and water, always
