Dear Liquid Intelligence Customers,

Australia Post has recently sent us an email explaining that they will not be picking up from ANY business' from NSW, ACT or VIC on Monday the 6/9/21 to try and clear their backlog of parcels from the recent lock downs and their limited staff on site due to COVID.
This will unfortunately put a delay on shipping from our factory next week.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused and we will work hard to try and get your items delivered in a reasonable time frame.
Please call us on Monday 6/9/21 TOLL FREE 1800 441 163 to place an order so we can arrange the fastest possible shipping method for you.

This is the email Australia Post has sent to us:

As you know, across the country we are all managing the sustained challenges of the COVID pandemic. With two of our largest States and some 15 million people in lockdown, the fluctuations in customer online shopping have significantly increased.

We are also dealing with the impacts of the Delta strain and in any given day, we have close to 500 people out of our workforce as they follow necessary self-isolation and testing before clearance back to work.

This is putting increased pressure on our network like nothing we have experienced before, as we manage staff shortages, temporary facility closures, and parcel volumes as high as Christmas peak period.

To help us clear excess parcel volumes in NSW, ACT and VIC due to these impacts, we will be suspending customer collections in these areas.

All Parcel Post collections from customers and merchants in NSW, ACT and VIC will be paused from 7am Saturday 4 September until 7am Tuesday 7 September.

The safety of our people is our highest priority and this temporary measure will allow us to responsibly clear record volumes in parts of our network.

Our team will be processing all weekend to reduce these volumes to a safe and manageable level and help free up capacity with ULDs and pallets.

Services provided for Express Post, Premium and Startrack Express remain unchanged across our network. Lodgements at Post Offices and SPB's will also continue to be collected and collections in all other States remain the same.

Normal medical shipments (normally lodged Parcel Post) will still be accepted subject to confirmation and by arrangement.

We're sorry for the inconvenience

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this may place on you and your customers. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we continue to navigate these challenges together.

Stay safe,

Gary Starr

**IS YOUR DIESEL FUEL PUMP LEAKING? Here’s Why & How We Can Help Eliminate That Problem With Another Liquid Intelligence Smart Solution**

As part of an initiative to reduce pollution from diesel engines the government reduced the sulphur content in diesel fuel from 5000 parts per million to less than 50 parts per million.

The production of this new low sulphur diesel started in 2002. The new diesel caused changes in the composition and chemical properties of the fuel, other than lowering its sulphur content… those chemical changes had a detrimental effect on diesel fuel pumps seals.

The most commonly used seal in diesel fuel systems prior to 2002 was nitrile. The nitrile rubber reacted to the changes in the new fuel composition by shrinking them over time causing the pumps to leak.

Most current generation diesel fuel pumps that were manufactured after 2002 had O rings that were made of FKM (also known as Viton) and those seals are not affected by the chemical changes in low sulphur diesel.

However, some OEM manufactures changed from Nitrile to NBR (BUNA-N) seals which has proved not to be as resistant to the new fuel composition as Viton is. So, we are also now seeing relativity new fuel pumps leaking from these seals as well.

**How We Solved This Problem To Save You Time And Money**

All Nitrile and NBR seals will eventually shrink and subsequently leak… but only a small proportion of the seals chemical composition depletes. Those depleted chemicals are called the volatiles… and they are the bit that had given the seal it’s structural integrity, elasticity and volume.

Those volatiles are made up of a wide range of chemicals, but the major constituents are a group collectively called phenol esters.

The liquid Intelligence 229 formulation contains a combination of those phenol ester additives… and history has proven that these phenol ester additives can rejuvenate dried and hardened nitrile or NBR rubber seals.

So, if the seals and gaskets are not mechanically unsound but just dried and hard…. then there is every chance that the 229 will eliminate a fuel leak caused from seal depletion…

Whilst this type of seal repair is not an exact science most people that use the 229 can expect the seal to stay rejuvenated for years… but this can vary depending on the seals composition and condition. To get the best results Liquid Intelligence 229 is used at one litre per 10 litres of diesel fuel.

It generally takes two to three days to rejuvenate a seal… but can take longer.

However, given that almost every diesel pump with seal depletion can present with different symptoms. We usually first like to discuss the problem to gauge its type and severity, so we can confirm if the 229 could work successfully for you… we can then also suggest an individual method of applying and using 229 that best suits the vehicle and its specific problem. This way we nearly always ensure the best possible long-term results.

There are also instructions on our website for applying Liquid Intelligence 229 Diesel Fuel Pump Seal Leak Fix. Please visit our website and read more about the product and application. If you have any questions before purchasing, please don't hesitate to call us on our TOLL FREE NUMBER 1800 441 163. There is someone to help from 7am to 7pm 7 days a week!

REMOVING THICK OIL SLUDGE FROM A COOLING SYSTEMS CAN BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT.
Mechanics say that it’s almost impossible to get a cooling system totally clean, after this has happened. Even when they have been flushing for days using very strong corrosive cleaners, there is still lots of oily gunk left behind. Liquid Intelligence has formulated a quicker, simpler, more complete method of cleaning sludge from cooling systems.
We found that by using a chemical reaction we could convert that oily sludge into a water soluble soap based compound that could be simply flushed away leaving a totally clean cooling system.

The most common visual symptom of a leak from an oil or transmission cooler that has been going on for a while is a thick milky sludge in the coolant. In the early stages of a leak, there may just be an oily sheen on top of the coolant. But if these symptom go unnoticed, which they quite often do, then the oil will continue to build up into a thick sludge, causing the vehicle to eventually overheat.

Of course the damage that caused the problem first needs to be repaired, and then the oil/coolant sludge removed from the cooling system. Flushing the sludge from the cooling system is not easily done, in fact it’s normally a very difficult and time consuming task even for a professional. Most attempts at removing this sludge have included the use of strong detergents, and even solvent or caustic based degreasers, plus all sorts of general purpose cleaners and home remedies. But nothing has ever really worked at removing this thick gunky sludge from cooling system.

The main reason is that engine coolant channels, radiators, hoses and heater matrixes get totally blocked up with high surface tension greasy sludge, that just won’t shift using traditional cleaning chemicals and methods. In fact it’s quite common for a mechanic to have flushed a cooling system for days with very strong acid or alkaline based cleaners and still not get all the gunk out. And there is always good chance that those harsh cleaners will corroded and do further damage to a cooling system.

Liquid Intelligence 238 Cooling Systems Oil Sludge Remover would be the safest and most effective product for this job. Because it’s a totally safe non-corrosive treatment, that contains highly active emulsification properties, making it the most effective and application-specific oil sludge cleaner available. Here’s why!

The Liquid Intelligence 238 treatment has uniquely different emulsification properties when compared to detergents and degreasers. It uses an innovative pH neutral dispersion method to break even thickest water/oil emulsion sludge and convert it into a water soluble soap based compound. And that then will allow the converted sludge soap to be simply flushed from the cooling system using a normal garden hose. Leaving the cooling system squeaky clean and oil free.

If you would like to have a chat about the technical and practical aspects of using the Liquid Intelligence 238 in a vehicle please give us a call. You will get personal service from one of our qualified technical staff, some of which have more than 40 years’ experience in the industry. We are available on: 1800 441 163 or 02 8188 2060 from 7am to 7pm seven days a week.

DIESEL BUG FUEL PROBLEMS IN VESSLES
WHAT IS FUEL CONTAMINATION AND HOW CAN WE HELP?

Diesel Bug fuel problems in a boat can be reduced by filling the tank to the top to minimize the surface area in the tank where water can condense. In addition, always add biocide to the tank, that will minimize the growth of bacterial sludge. In fact storing diesel fuel in a vessel without a biocide is like playing Russian Roulette, here’s why...

Australia now depends almost entirely on imported diesel fuel. Singapore currently supplies a great deal of our diesel fuel needs. And as bacterium, yeast and fungus microorganisms are found absolutely everywhere, and since they are ever-present, it’s easy for them to enter diesel fuel during transport and storage. Particularly when imported diesel is shipped, transported, pumped and stored numerous times from the Asian refineries to the user in Australia. Each freight and storage movement multiplies the risk of the fuel becoming contaminated with bacterium, yeast and fungus microorganisms.

The microorganisms that thrive in diesel fuel are generally aerobic, meaning that they require oxygen, which they can get from the condensation water at the bottom of the fuel tanks. Diesel fuel tanks are always subject to water build-up from condensation. When a fuel tank is warm, the air expands and is forced out. As the tank cools at night, humid air is sucked back into the tank and it’s moisture then condenses on the cooler tank walls and collects as water in the bottom of the tank.

And microbes are of course microscopic, that means that even the smallest amount of water in the bottom of a fuel tank, is enough to help microbiological diesel fuel contamination to occur and colonise. So, most vessel diesel tanks will have at least some bacterium growing in them.

As these microorganisms develop, hot conditions can lead them to growing faster. When you factor in humidity as well, the risks of diesel fuel contamination gets higher in coastal regions of Australia. So any imported diesel fuel from Asia will carry a greater risk of it already being contaminated with some bacterium, yeast or fungus when you purchase it.

Our Liquid Intelligence 205 Microbial Field Test Kit can detect bacterial contamination BEFORE it has a chance to develop.

As an example, these images of our microbial field test kit show a positive test result for bacterium, yeast and fungus contamination in diesel fuel.

This type of bacterial contamination often starts small and unseen in the bottom of a fuel tank. And doesn’t necessarily cause a problem if the fuel is used within a few months. However vessels, vehicles, equipment or bulk diesel fuel tanks that get used infrequently could easily develop a serious diesel bug infection in time. And serious contamination can cost thousands to fix and will completely take any equipment out of operation. But early detection of a diesel bug could allow the fuel to be treated using Liquid Intelligence 201 Diesel Fuel Bacteria & Fungi Biocide. This treatment would sterilise the diesel and fuel tanks, eradicating the bacterium and preventing that potential costly equipment down time.

If you would like to have a chat about the technical and practical aspects of using Liquid Intelligence 201 please give me a call.
