Depending on your vehicle, your trusted workshop will recommend that you clean the filter with some of these processes. In diesel engines inside scania p310 2006 for sale, in addition, the filter must retain the humidity that the diesel can contain and that would end up causing corrosion in the metallic parts of the system. Unlike gasoline engines, the fuel system of diesel engines is very very complex. While simple fuel pumps are placed in a gasoline engine that generate up to 60 PSI of pressure (pounds per square inch), in a diesel engine more complex pumps are used whose function is to generate up to 32 thousand PSI.
Directly By Fuel
To achieve such high pressures, the fuel pump of diesel engines becomes a second micro engine inside the engine; this is because there are pistons in the fuel pump, in some cases cams, valves and crankshaft. In several cases these pumps do not have lubrication by means of oil as it happens in a conventional engine; the lubrication is generated directly by the fuel, since diesel by nature has a high viscosity. Poor maintenance of the fuel system has very serious consequences, since the lubrication capacity of the fuel is diminished when it is contaminated with water. That is why most engines have fuel filters called water separator filters, whose function is to remove moisture from the fuel through a filter medium which can be cellulose or some synthetic fiber that lets the fuel pass and separates the water by "straining" the water particles. This is sediment at the bottom of the filter from where it can be subsequently drained.
The place where the water separated from the fuel accumulates is a saturable tank, that is, when the tank is filled with water, there is a risk that it will return to the interior of the fuel system. When the system is saturated a warning called WIF warns of the situation and gives the instruction that the system needs to be purged. Like air intake systems, there are also solid contaminants in fuel that can affect the operation of the fuel system. An example is diesel engines with injectors that have small holes in the tip where they inject fuel and in some cases can be covered with particles of a little more than five microns in size; Therefore, it is of utmost importance, in addition to replacing fuel filters, replacing them with filters that meet the manufacturer's recommended flow and micron specification.
Necessary To Connect
The correct thing to do is to drain the water accumulated by the separator filter every morning and this will almost completely prevent the WIF signaling on the dash from lighting up. Finally, if during the pre-start inspections the operator drained the fuel filter and during the course of the day the filter was re-saturated, the amount of water exceeds what is considered normal, therefore the amount of water in the fuel tank and, if necessary, replace the fuel with a diesel of known quality. The filter is disassembled and, after covering all the holes, they inject a liquid similar to a decarbonizer. It is a slow process, since it has to go through the grids, which are also obstructed. It is then left for about * hours before being washed with pressurized water. Then you have to assemble it as soon as possible and drive with the car so that the hot gases dry the filter well and it can return to normal operation. After disassembling it, the particle filter is immersed in an ultrasonic washer. Through vibrations, the soot and sediment remains are released. When the process ends, it is also washed with pressurized water.
There are special liquids to clean it, but they are not very effective if the obstruction is very large. In the workshop it is also possible to force the regeneration to eliminate these residues. It is a process for which it is necessary to connect the vehicle to a diagnostic machine, so that the temperature of the engine increases and with it the temperature of the gases that come off the exhaust pipe. In addition, a scania p310 2006 price payer need to know, through the heat produced inside the exhaust pipe, the soot particles are burned and the filter is clean. They must be done by professionals in a controlled environment. And it is that, during the process, the temperature of the gases increases and also the emission of polluting gases, in addition to being able to cause a fire.
The Filter Care
The life of an anti-particle filter depends on many factors. The main one is the use that is given to the vehicle, especially if it is a diesel engine. When only short trips are made, such as those made in the city, the exhaust gases do not reach the appropriate temperature and the regeneration is not carried out correctly or even the process is interrupted. So a diesel is not a good idea to always drive in the city. Go at low revs constantly can be a cheap headache, ultimately spending more money than you thought you could save by betting on that fuel: To avoid this, you must comply with various issues i.e. Follow the maintenance plan indicated by the manufacturer in your car manual. Models with a particle filter usually use a Low Saps oil, (low in ash, phosphorous and sulfur). This oil is capable of withstanding the "dirt" that occurs when more fuel is injected than necessary during regeneration.
Although it costs something more, it is worth it. Do not stop the engine during regeneration; there are models with a warning light that informs of the process. If not, pay attention to whether the engine "snores" and / or increases instantaneous fuel consumption. The engine does not reach the ideal temperature and the filter does not. In addition, more solid particles accumulate on these paths. From time to time the engine will have to go through a regeneration cycle and will not be able to do it properly. Driving on the motorway (at specific speed and at specific distances, etc. ensures correct regeneration of the particulate filter. If you ever detect a loss of power, the filter may start to plug. Go out on the road for a while so that the car reaches temperature.
