Premium Diesel Fuel

KLASEN OIL COMPANY offers a PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL that is a formulation of the most effective elements yet discovered to treat the complex effects of diesel fuel on engines and fuel delivery systems. It contains water solubilizers, flow improvers, pour depressants for wax crystal modification, cetane improvers, biocides, and corrosion inhibitors.
 
As a “middle distillate fuel”, diesel fuel contains certain amounts of water, carbon and gum residues, sulfur, paraffin wax and other impurities which are not removed in the refining process. These factors-either alone or with the help of various weather conditions-can cause substantial problems in the operation of diesel powered vehicles.
 
WATER is present in all diesel fuel. In addition to the moisture that remains through the refining process, additional water is often introduced from condensation and improper handling or storage. The presence of moisture causes corrosion, fuel blockage by freezing, algae growth, clogged filters and ultimately injector nozzle deterioration, incomplete combustion, increased fuel consumption, and complete operational failure. Klasen Oil Company’s PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL is extremely effective in absorbing water. By combining molecularly with the water and then dispersing the resultant product throughout the fuel, the effects of water in the fuel are totally neutralized.
 
WAX crystals form when the temperature falls below the fuel’s “cloud point”. Wax crystal formation can vary effectively clog fuel lines and filters in cold or freezing weather. Klasen Oil Company’s PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL retards the formation of wax crystal “chains” and the “gelling” and filter clogging that results, thereby reducing the pour point approximately 20°F. Freezing weather “pour point” and “fuel flow” problems are thus prevented.
 
CORROSION remains a problem, although substantially diminished by removing the water, because of the presence of sulfur in the fuel. 
 
Sulfur content has increased dramatically in
recent years as lower grades of crude are being used to produce diesel fuel. Klasen Oil Company’s PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL neutralizes the resulting sulfuric acid and coats all metal surfaces with a microscopically thin but tough molecular protectant that stops corrosion in its tracks. Increased engine wear resulting from contaminated crankcase oil is also thus prevented.
 
ALGAE and bacterial growth, which is aided by warm weather and the presence of water, is stopped dead by the very effective algaecide agent present. Year round use of Klasen Oil Company’s PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL is extremely effective in eliminating the filter clogging “sludge” that is a common occurrence in untreated fuel.
 
CETANE ratings have decreased steadily in the past few years. While most engine manufacturers require 45 cetane fuel it is difficult in most areas of the country to obtain fuel with a rating of more than 40-42 cetane today. Lower cetane fuels can cause reduced operating efficiency and substantially reduce the life of the engine.
KLASEN OIL COMPANY’S PREMIUM DIESEL HAS AN AVERAGE CETANE RATING OF 50.

PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL IS AVAILABLE “OFF ROAD-HIGH SULFUR” OR “LOW SULFUR DYED OR CLEAR”
