Fuel Dilution Testing

Fuel Dilution Testing is a critical process in oil analysis that measures the amount of fuel—gasoline, diesel, or other hydrocarbons—that has mixed with lubricating oil. This contamination can significantly reduce oil viscosity, impair lubrication performance, and lead to accelerated engine wear or failure.\r\n\r\nThe test is commonly used in predictive maintenance programs for internal combustion engines, generators, and heavy-duty equipment. It provides early detection of issues such as leaking injectors, incomplete combustion, or excessive idling, helping maintenance teams take corrective actions before serious damage occurs.\r\n\r\n
