This 2018 International Durastar 4300 is a fuel tanker truck — sometimes called a fuel transport truck or aviation refueler — purpose-built to store, transport, and dispense aviation fuel directly to aircraft on the ground. International, a long-established manufacturer of commercial trucks and vocational vehicles, produces heavy-duty and medium-duty trucks used across a wide range of industries, and its medium commercial platform is widely found in fuel and specialty service applications. This particular example is a formerly government-owned aviation refueling unit offered in used condition from Denver, Colorado.
Power comes from a 6.7-litre Cummins turbocharged diesel engine producing 240 horsepower, paired with an Allison six-speed automatic transmission and equipped with an exhaust brake for controlled deceleration under load. The truck rides on a single-axle chassis with a 35,000-pound GVWR, broken down as a 12,000-pound steer axle and a 23,000-pound drive axle, with a 6.14 axle ratio and spring suspension. The wheelbase measures 216 inches with a 148-inch cab-to-axle dimension. Tyres are 11R22.5 mounted on aluminium wheels, and the truck carries a 50-gallon aluminium diesel fuel tank for the chassis engine. A block heater is fitted, and the unit is CARB compliant.
The cab is well-specified for an operator working long duty cycles. It features an air-ride cab and an air-ride driver's seat, tilt and telescoping steering wheel, cruise control, air conditioning, power windows and locks, power heated mirrors, and a radio. The combination of low recorded usage — just 2,051 ECM-verified miles and 462 ECM-verified engine hours — makes this a notably low-hours unit for its application.
The refueling body is a Garsite aluminium tank with a nominal capacity of 3,000 gallons, operationally limited to 2,850 gallons via a Scully Thermistor overfill prevention system. The tank model is 2.8MA-50A-MR-PNDAS, and a build sheet is available. Flow capabilities are extensive: 300 GPM underwing pressure refueling, 80 GPM underwing defueling, 70 GPM overwing fueling, 40 GPM overwing defueling, 400 GPM bottom loading, and 300 GPM recirculation. Two fueling sampling couplings are fitted, positioned both upstream and downstream for quality control during fueling operations.
Hose equipment includes a 1.25-inch by 50-foot overwing hose mounted on a Hannay electric reel, along with a 1.5-inch by 50-foot overwing nozzle. A brake interlock system with override is installed, preventing vehicle movement during active fueling operations. The truck carries stock number 18052D and is located at a dealer in Denver, Colorado.
