• Two new products from Cummins are aimed at easing winter operation problems. The Cummins drivers' handbook published this week contains lots of practical advice on cold weather operation of Cummins-powered vehicles. Among suggestions in the Cummins book are "do not switch off the engine within the first few kilometres after starting", and "do ensure that the lubrication oil grade conforms to Cummins' specification for winter temperatures."
The fuel heater kit intro duced by Cummins subsidiary, Fleetguard earlier this year is now available from Cummins and Fleetguard distributors.
The kit comprises a filter head heater (made by Texas Instruments) complete with Fleetguard FS1212 Superfilter, a wiring loom, dashboard switch, and fixing brackets. Cummins claims that the kit will give protection from wax formation in fuel down to 5°C below the cold filter plugging point of the fuel in use. The Fleetguard fuel heater kit costs, typically, 285 plus VAT,
