Reduced Customer Complaints 

A proactive service program with Fueltec Systems, all but eliminates transferring bad fuel. 

Elimination of Down Time 

Fuel Storage tanks that are properly cleaned and maintained with Fueltec’s Mobile Systems suffer far less down time then tanks that are only serviced when pumps slow down and water is found on tank bottoms. 

Eliminate Expensive Emergency Service Calls 

Emergency service calls are sometimes done with vacuum service trucks to remove the tank bottom water. Using vacuum trucks without fuel/water separators can lose as much as 300 to 500 gallons of product along with the water. 

Filter Cost Savings 

We can remove the filter clogging moisture and bacteria from fuel storage tanks thereby reducing the need to change dispenser filters by as much as 80%. 

A pro‐active fuel tank cleaning program will prevent unexpected engine shut down. 

In diesel fuel tanks colonies of filter clogging bacteria and fungus will grow at the fuel/water interface. The by product of these colonies is acidic sludge which corrode tanks and engine components. 

Engines may be exercised regularly and operate properly and to specification. However inside the fuel tank, out of sight, free and emulsified water is slowly accumulating from condensation, leaky tank openings, and even fuel deliveries with high    water content. As the evening temperature falls the water begins to condense out of the fuel and build inside of the tank. 

When the fuel/water interface grows high enough to reach the engines fuel supply tube which may be one or more inches above the tank bottom; the filter clogging microbes will be drawn into the fuel system and stop the engine. 

 All boats, gasoline or diesel accumulate water in their fuel tanks from condensation, leaky tank openings, tank vents, and even fuel deliveries with high water content.  

Ethanol Blended Fuels:  

Many small boat owners fill their tanks with ethanol blended (E10) gasoline at local gas stations. 

When E10 is blended, 10% ethanol (115 octane) is mixed with a low octane gasoline. This combination will give you the    required octane to safely run your engine. However, if there is any water in your fuel tank, the ethanol will combine with the water and leave you with low octane gasoline to operate your engine.
