Common Fuel Tank Problems and How the Leak Defender® Can Help

At Heavy Truck Solutions, we understand the critical role a well-maintained fuel system plays in the efficient operation of heavy trucks. Fuel tanks often face several issues that can hinder performance. Learn below how the Leak Defender® can resolve these common problems effectively.

Worn Fuel Necks 

Over time, the threads on a fuel neck can become worn out due to constant use and exposure to harsh conditions. This wear prevents the fuel cap from sealing properly, leading to leaks and potential fuel loss. The Leak Defender® addresses this issue by providing a 2-piece adapter system that creates a completely new sealing surface, effectively replacing the old, worn fuel neck.

Fuel Leaks

Leaks from an improperly sealed fuel neck can lead to fuel wastage and environmental hazards. They can also create safety risks by increasing the chance of fire hazards. The Leak Defender® eliminates this problem by securely attaching to the worn fuel neck and ensuring a tight seal, preventing leaks and maintaining the integrity of your fuel system.

Difficulty in Fuel Cap Fitment 

When the threads on a fuel neck are damaged, it becomes challenging to secure the fuel cap properly. This can result in fuel vapors escaping and affect the efficiency of your vehicle. The Leak Defender® solves this problem by providing a reliable connection between the fuel neck and the cap, ensuring a secure and proper fit every time.

Ongoing issues with a worn fuel neck can lead to frequent repairs and increased maintenance costs. By using the Leak Defender®, you can avoid these recurring expenses. This product provides a long-term solution that extends the life of your fuel system and reduces the need for costly repairs or replacements.
