Diesel engines

Diesel fuel on DIN EN 590

Tsetanovoye number not less than 49

Do not use biodiesel fuel (methyl air of rapsovy oil)

Operation in winter conditions

Winter diesel fuel which depending on its brand provides continuous work of the engine at temperature to - 15°С or to - 22°С.

Heating of the fuel filter

The car is equipped with the device of heating of the fuel filter. Thanks to it - 15°С, it is possible to use the fuel calculated on its application at temperature to at temperature approximately to - 25°С.
If at air temperature below - 25°С fuel became so dense that the engine is not started, let's to the car some time stand in a warmed room enough.
To diesel fuel it is not necessary to mix the various additives increasing its fluidity.
At temperature drop of external air is lower - 9°С to summer diesel fuel it is possible to add kerosene (in % from total volume)
