Forecourt Technologies To Eliminate Petrol In Diesel Engines

By Clare Leith


Placing petrol in diesel engines is a worldwide occurrence that can amount to significant costs in terms of repairs. There is a way for both consumers and petrol attendants to prevent having the incorrect fuel type inserted, which means greater savings in both time and money. The Diesel smart Cap offers the latest Forecourt Technology to provide a solution for such mishaps.

For both countries that offer a self service or have fueling procedures performed by an attendant the Smart Cap can prevent the possibility of contamination. For a large number of people human error, poor communication, and inattention are all responsible for causing such problems. This is a costly mistake as it will contribute to damages of the engine and its components.

When the wrong fuel type is used it will cause major engine damage once the ignition is turned. All valves, plugs, gaskets, and similar parts will be affected once it is thoroughly lubricated with petrol. Most insurance companies will also not cover the expenses associated with contamination and you may face litigation issues due to employee negligence.

With the installation of a Smart Cap it will serve as a solution for the protection of the fuel tank. This mechanism will only work when the correct fuel nozzle is inserted from the diesel pump making it difficult to top up with petrol. Consumers will be able to use a key to lock and release the mechanism to ensure communication with attendant services.

If you have proceeded to fill the tank with the wrong fuel type, the next step is not to turn on the ignition. The Smart Cap is a solid mechanism that cannot be removed by unskrewing the fitted apparatus by hand. It will also indicate problem functioning when it has been tightened too much.

The Smart Cap consists of a purple and bright orange design that is clearly marked diesel on the outside. This innovative and cost effective mechanism presents as real solution for those who have experienced incorrect fuel insertion and to assist diesel engine drivers in protecting against such consequences from materializing. It is important to make considerations for the expense associated with fuel contamination.

To prevent inserting petrol in diesel engines all drivers are advised to use a Smart Cap by Forecourt Technology. It includes a uniquely designed mechanism that makes it impossible to insert a petrol nozzle into the diesel fuel tank. The device encourages communication between driver and attendant, eliminating confusion and contamination.
