Before diesel-powered vehicle owners decide on on where, when and how to have their vehicles serviced, they can take the “easy” route of having local technicians service and maintain the vehicles. However, before taking this step, four issues should be considered: technical expertise; specialist facilities; trained technicians and quality. At ADCO, the difference in diesel service begins at the door of a franchised facility and the financial commitment it has made in technology. Typically, the investment at an ADCO franchise could be up to R20-million for facilities. Sulfur is a lubricant used in diesel fuel vital to lubricating engine components. The reduction of sulfur means the addition of other additives to replace it. Contamination of fuel through dirt and moisture ingress is a risk for pumps, which is why maintenance and inspection are vital to longevity and performance.
