I am having some fuel dilution issues on a few engines with my fleet.
One example:
Cat 3512 with 4700 hours current. 3400 hours on the oil.
86 gallon sump.
By-pass filtration.
The current sample has a 6.4% fuel dilution. Last sample was The current visc@100 degrees is 11.84. The previous was 12.93.
The TBN is 5.67. The previous was 8.0. At what point is the dilution % to high?
