Diesel fuel test kits

FuelTurbo diesel clarity / contamination and water test kits Part # FT test

Our low cost diesel fuel test kits are very useful in diagnosing the levels of contamination in the diesel fuel. The kit will visually show you the level of contamination of sediment / algae / bacteria and water content. They are two tests in one, easily used and results in only 5 minutes. The test bottle is crystal clear and has 4 visual sight indicators that allow you to ascertain the general quality of the diesel fuel. A special water finding chemical strip will show you quickly if water is present in the test sample. The clarity alone will assist in diagnosing the general condition of the diesel fuel and any water present in the sample will indicate the conditions needed that will allow algae / bacteria to form and grow in your fuel.

How to use

1. Remove a sample of fuel and fill test bottle.
2. Insert a water test strip from the sealed bag, refit caps to the bottle. Shake test bottle for at least 60 seconds and allow to rest.
3. Observe the 4 visual sight indicators and water test strip through the back side of the test bottle.

If you cannot see the 4 indicators your test sample has failed the visual /clarity test. You should not see floating particles in your fuel and any slime present is a good indicator of algae / bacteria problems. Additionally the water test strip will lose its colour if water is present in the sample. If you can see all 4 indicators but test strip loses its colour the sample has failed the test as water has been detected in the diesel fuel.

You should be able to see all 4 indicators and if the test strip maintains its gold colour and no particles of contamination are visible your test sample has passed and the diesel fuel should be considered in good condition...
