The engine must only be used with diesel fuel oil which
conforms to one of the following:
a. BS 2869:1988 Class A2.
b. BS EN590:1995 Class A1.
c. USA Specification ASTM D-975-77 Grades No.1-D and 2-D.
d. BSMA 100 Class M1 for marine use.
The fuel must be a distillate, and not a residual oil or blend.
Vaporising oils are not suitable as fuels for Lister Petter Power
Systems engines.
The user is cautioned that although the engines may operate
on fuels outside the above specifications, such operation may
well result in excessive wear and damage.
CAPTION
The fuel injection equipment is manufactured to
very accurate limits and the smallest particle of dirt
will destroy its efficiency. Fuel free from water and
contaminants is of the utmost importance.
Low Temperature Fuels
Special winter fuels are often available for use at ambient
temperatures below 0°C (32°F).
These fuels have a lower viscosity and limit the formation of
wax at low ambient temperatures.
CAPTION
Wax formation can rapidly reduce the flow of fuel
through the fuel filter element.
