Below are a couple of examples of poor fuel management that Equipco have been engaged to resolve in the last few months:

$23,000 repair to Kenworth Temora NSW

In September 2023 we were asked to visit a transport company in Temora after they had received two major truck repairs. Testing of their fuel tanks showed diesel heavily contaminated with both water and sludge, causing these breakdowns. We installed a filtration system, provided training, and scheduled ongoing maintenance to prevent future issues.

$20,000 damage to new Landcruiser

Another example involved a new Landcruiser at a remote farm property that had been filled with contaminated diesel. The contaminants damaged the fuel injection system, requiring expensive repairs. Equipco installed a portable filtration solution to clean the farm's stored fuel and implemented a monitoring process to prevent recurrence.
