Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of works on the use of alternative fuels. Reliability indicators of the elements of the compressed natural gas and diesel fuel supply system have been studied to substantiate the maintenance system. On the basis of statistical observations, the performance indicators of intensity of the event flow λ and probability of failure are obtained. It is shown that the elements of the gas and fuel supply system have high reliability. At the same time, the fuel supply system elements have slightly lower reliability than when a diesel engine is running on pure diesel fuel. It is recommended to maintain the dual-fuel gas-supply system of the diesel engine according to the regulations used for engines running on mineral fuel with additional control of the gas-supply system elements.
