Diesel System Cleaning Procedures
Filling and Mixture Setup
Follow the steps below to obtain the proper fuel mixture for use during the cleaning
procedure. Make sure the vehicle has at least 5 gallons (18.9L) of fuel before beginning this
process.
1. Start the vehicle. Allow the engine to reach normal operating temperature if possible .
NOTE:
The diesel engine cleaning system should be operated on a level
surface. For best results, engine should be up to operating
temperature and fuel filters should be changed prior to service. Check
the engine’s oil level and add oil if necessary. DO NOT PERFORM THE
CLEANING PROCESS IF THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL IS LOW. Check the
coolant and add if necessary. If the engine is hot, check the level of the
overflow tank. DO NOT PERFORM (and if necessary, STOP) THE
CLEANING PROCESS IF THE ENGINE IS OVERHEATING.
2. Turn the engine OFF when normal operating temperature has been reached.
3. Remove the units diesel reservoir cap, and add the Detergent for Industrial Diesel Tune to
the system’s reservoir. The desired ratio is 1:1 - One part cleaning detergent to one part
diesel fuel. (Use 4oz. (118ml) diesel detergent per 1 liter engine size)
Note: It is recommended that a full tank mixture should be used when working with
engines that utilize electronically operated injectors.
4. To add diesel fuel to the system’s reservoir using the 060-4500 adapter, see page 6-2 ,
FIGURE A. Reinstall tank cap onto reservoir, but leave cap slightly loose during the service.
IMPORTANT
When mixing the cleaner in an external container,
measure equal parts cleaner and fuel in a suitable
container. Keep container sealed when not in use
.
5. Attach the unit to a vehicle’s battery by connecting the red battery clip to the positive
(+) battery terminal and connect the black battery clip to a solid ground. 12 - 15 Volts
DC, 8 Amperes at 12VDC.
NOTE
If no lights turn on when the ON/OFF switch is turned on, check that the
battery clips are attached to the proper terminals on the 12-Volt battery
(BLACK clip to ground connection, RED clip to positive terminal). If the clips
are connected correctly, verify the condition of the vehicle’s battery.
