Isuzu Ready to Run on B30
AUTOMOTIVE producer PT Isuzu Astra Motor has reiterated that Isuzu vehicles are ready to run on B30, fuel with 30 percent biodiesel content. Currently, Indonesia is implementing B20 mandatory program and is preparing to next level with B30. Prior to that, Isuzu has developed its vehicle to run smoothly on B30 and conducted test in Japan. Isuzu also complies with the government policy to use biodiesel. `Currently, the government is implementing mandatory B20 program and will use B30 in the near future. We comply with the policy. Recently, we tested vehicles in Japan. We brought the fuel from Indonesia to Japan and then our engines ran on the fuel for 1.000 hours. We will inform the test result soon,” General Manager Sales Division PT Isuzu Astra Motor Indonesia Yohanes Pratama said in FX Sudirman, Jakarta, (21/11/2019), as reported by Detik.com. Yohanes said, Isuzu engines didn’t face any problem running on B20 and B30. However, other components such as fuel hose, fuel tank, and filter need a few adjustments. Isuzu is making adjustment to prevent residu in tank or filter. “We are attempting to keep the tank and filter clean from residu. When the engine runs in higher RPM, the crusts in engines will be burnt.”  *** (Sumber: Detik.com)
