High Sulfur Fuel Effects in a Two-Cycle High Speed Army Diesel Engine.

Abstract

The effects of increasing the fuel sulfur content while using a constant lubricant (MIL-L-2104C) were determined. Key areas of engine distress were identified and baselines were established using high (1.0%w) and low (0.4%w) sulfur fuels. Effects of more frequent oil drain intervals were determined. (Author)
