If I use the diesel fuel with sulphur content percentage higher than 0.5% ( 5000 ppm) , the engine oil change interval should be half or even early.
The sulphur content of diesel oil imported from Indonesia ranges from 2,000 to 5,000 ppm.
The sulphur content of fuel import from Singapore is only 10 ppm, also called ULSD
2. What exactly is “ULSD” fuel?
It is diesel with sulphur content of 50 mg per kg
or less. This is equal to a maximum of 50 parts per million or
expressed in a percentage it is less than 0.0050%. .
3. Will engines designed for using Euro 2 compliant diesel and Euro 3 compliant diesel suffer adverse effect from long term use of ULSD?
No, the reduction in the sulphur content will not
have an effect on vehicle performance except for lower emissions that
benefits the environment.
