Fuels and Fuel Testing

As the leading fuel testing and research laboratory, Sterling Performance is specifically equipped to address all your fuel testing and qualification needs, regardless of industry.

We test using a variety of fuels including Liquid, Gaseous, Conventional, Alternative, and Corrosive fuels for the Automotive, Marine, Commercial, Off-Road, and Small Engine markets, to name a few. See our Industries.

Testing is done according to standard and customer specific protocols; including EPA and CARB.  We work with you to ensure the best and most appropriate tests are performed so your results and product testing are done right. We are an EPA recognized laboratory and regularly attend EPA board meetings.

Below is a partial list of fuels we test. If you do not see a specific fuel listed call us; we either have it or can get it. Most fuels in-stock for quick response time!
