At Automotive Obsession in Bohle, we take routine servicing seriously—because what you don’t see can cost you. A recent job on a 2019 Ford Ranger is the perfect example of why preventative maintenance matters.

The vehicle came in for a standard logbook service. No warning lights, no rough running, no issues reported by the owner. However, part of our regular servicing protocol—especially after recent wet weather in Townsville—is to recommend a fuel filter replacement.

Upon removing the old fuel filter, our team inspected the fuel and immediately noticed significant contamination. The fuel had visible water content and sediment—clear signs of water ingress or dirty fuel. While the vehicle hadn’t shown any symptoms yet, it was only a matter of time before that contaminated fuel caused:

To protect the engine and avoid any downstream damage, we carried out a complete fuel system clean-up:

✅ Removed and fully drained the fuel tank

✅ Added Prostream fuel additive to eliminate any residual moisture and contaminants

The job was finished the same day, and the Ranger now runs smoother and cleaner than ever. The customer avoided a major repair down the track—all thanks to a proactive service step.

Here in North Queensland, sudden weather changes and high humidity mean fuel contamination is more common than people think—especially if vehicles are refuelled at busy or remote stations. You won’t always see the signs until it's too late.

Even if your vehicle is running fine, don’t skip your regular servicing—and definitely don’t ignore your fuel filter replacement.

If you’re in or around Bohle and it’s been a while since your last service, or you've driven through wet conditions recently—give us a shout. Let’s keep your vehicle running like it should.

Preventive Maintenance: Regular servicing helps identify and address potential issues before they become major problems. This proactive approach can save you significant time and money in the long run.

Improved Fuel Efficiency: Well-maintained vehicles run more efficiently. Regular servicing ensures that engines are tuned correctly, tires are properly inflated, and other key factors are optimised, resulting in better fuel economy and lower operational costs.

Extended Vehicle Lifespan: Consistent maintenance helps extend the lifespan of your vehicles. This means you can maximise the return on your investment and delay the need for costly replacements.
