Environmental Factors
Ambient temperatures - The engine may be exposed to extended operation in extremely cold environments or hot environments. Valve components can be damaged by carbon buildup if the engine is frequently started and stopped in very cold temperatures. Extremely hot inlet air reduces engine performance.Air Quality - The engine may be exposed to extended operation in an environment that is dirty or dusty, unless the equipment is cleaned regularly. Mud, dirt and dust can encase components. Maintenance can be very difficult. The buildup can contain corrosive chemicals.Buildup - Compounds, elements, corrosive chemicals and salt can damage some components.Altitude - Problems can arise when the engine is operated at altitudes that are higher than the intended settings for that application. Necessary adjustments should be made.Improper Operating Procedures
Extended operation at low idle
Frequent hot shutdowns
Operating at excessive loads
Operating at excessive speeds
Operating outside the intended applicationImproper Maintenance Procedures
