Specialised Security Services (SSS) is conducting a national investigation into a company in Gqeberha,
Eastern Cape, accused of distributing diesel mixed with paraffin.
The company, operating under the name Pinnacle Fuels, supplies diesel on a large scale,
including major transport companies.
Issues with vehicle performance led to laboratory tests, which revealed that the diesel provided by Pinnacle Fuels contains 47% paraffin.
This fraudulent misrepresentation, where the diesel is sold as 100% pure, is a serious offence.
SSS is investigating cases involving millions of Rands in damages caused by this contaminated diesel.
All companies sourcing diesel from Pinnacle Fuels are urged to have their fuel tested by an accredited laboratory.
The paraffin mixture can cause significant harm to vehicle engines, potentially leading to costly repairs and operational issues.
Mixing paraffin with diesel can damage vehicle engines, particularly those designed to run on pure diesel.
Engine damage:
Paraffin lacks the lubricating properties of diesel fuel.
Diesel engines rely on proper lubrication to ensure that the fuel injectors, pumps, and other components operate smoothly.
When paraffin is mixed with diesel, the reduced lubrication can lead to excessive wear and tear on the engine's moving parts, potentially causing irreversible damage to the engine.
Reduced performance:
Diesel engines are designed to run on a specific fuel mixture that delivers the right amount of power and efficiency.
A diesel-paraffin mix has lower energy content than pure diesel, which can reduce engine performance, sluggish acceleration, and fuel efficiency.
The engine may struggle to perform optimally in the long term, especially under heavy loads.
Fuel injector problems:
Paraffin can cause blockages and reduced efficiency in the fuel injectors, which are responsible for delivering fuel to the engine in precise amounts.
This can lead to poor combustion, engine misfiring, and increased exhaust emissions.
Due to the improper fuel mixture, fuel injectors can become clogged or damaged, leading to costly repairs or replacements.
Higher exhaust emissions:
Diesel engines are built to run cleanly and efficiently with pure diesel.
When paraffin is introduced, incomplete combustion can occur, leading to higher levels of harmful emissions, such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and particulate matter.
This affects the environment and could cause the vehicle to fail emissions tests.
Damage to fuel systems:
The mixture of paraffin and diesel can damage critical components of the vehicle's fuel system, including fuel lines, pumps, and filters.
Paraffin may leave deposits or residues that can clog the system, leading to costly maintenance and frequent replacements.
Increased risk of engine failure:
Over time, the constant use of a paraffin-diesel mix can lead to a complete engine breakdown.
Components like the cylinder walls, pistons, and valves may experience accelerated wear due to improper combustion, leading to a major engine failure.
Warranty voidance:
Using contaminated fuel may void the vehicle's warranty, as manufacturers usually specify the type of fuel the vehicle should use.
If damage is traced back to the use of non-compliant fuel, such as a paraffin-diesel mix, the warranty may not cover the cost of repairs.
