Maintaining good working order of fuel pumps and injectors in auxiliary diesel engines requires the use of _______________.

A an injector test stand
B day tanks
C fuel/water separators
D fuel filters
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) fuel filters. Maintaining good working order of fuel pumps and injectors in auxiliary diesel engines requires the use of fuel filters. Fuel filters play a crucial role in removing contaminants, such as dirt, water, and other impurities, from the fuel before it reaches the fuel pumps and injectors. This helps to prevent wear and tear on these components, ensuring their proper functioning and longevity. The other options are not directly related to the maintenance of fuel pumps and injectors. An injector test stand is used to diagnose and service the injectors themselves, while day tanks and fuel/water separators are components used for fuel storage and separation, respectively.
