Why I must service my vehicle or machinery more often in East Timor?









 











     
 


   

        


                                    

                           



1.  Why I must service my  vehicle or machinery at 250 hours instead of the factory recommended 500 hours interval.
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.





You can have a longer vehicle and components life,  this prevent catastrophic failure and reduce machine break down time.
To  repair when you have a breakdown, You will need more spare parts and time to troubleshoot the cause of the breakdown.  And Parts cost money as well.
You  also save fuel. As the engine do not have to work harder

5. What are the items  that  You need to change during the servicing.
 You should change fuel filter, water separator, engine oil filter and engine oil of your vehicle or machine

In addition for all machinery, you also need to change all the hydraulic filters  or transmission  and oil when it is due for change.

You need to service your machine in order to protect your investment in the machine

Internet Fraud


BUYERS should especially be careful when  buying equipment from another country
There are many fraudsters waiting to  cheat you.My advice is If the price is too good to be true, it is most like not true.And is a scam.
Check if all the details match, the business name, the address, the email address, the names of the people, even the email provider.  We have our own domain name, most legitimate exporters do? Look to see the pictures of machines are taken mostly at the same location If people ask for deposits and will ship without whole payment, it will be a fraud
Better pay by letter of credit.Check with a manufacturer or country dealer in the machine you are buying, they will likely know if something is wrong? Google the names of the people involved facebook, Linkedin, twitter etc there should be some trace as these people will have personal lives, families and so on. When in doubt keep asking questions and searching on the internet.
Be careful, Fraudsters can be based in countries like Singapore, UK and Australia too.
They are not only from Nigeria.
No country is immune from them.
We are happy to give  you advice to help you avoid a costly mistake. Please keep buying, but do so safely.
