Hi,

Just got my new Diesel checked out at Diesels Only and it's really clean.

They sure like fuel additives down there. Any recommendations on this board? Do I need any?

Can I still get the "old fashioned" diesel here in Denver?

Thank you,

I like additives.
Alot of people dont.

I would try to stick with Lubromolly, and Diesel Kleen.

You mean dirty diesel that will turn your engine oil acidic and increases pollution in our wonderful city? Nope. As of December 2010 ALL diesel is ULSD.

If you want the old type diesel, go to a marina or fuel company & bring cans. It is still availible for marine & heavy equipment.

As far as I know the sulfur is a natural impurity in the fuel. I don't know if they changed anything beyond the sulfur content. I can't see how sulfur could possibly make your car run better.

Good question though I'm sure forced knows

The complaint has been that the process that removes the sulfur degrades the lubricity of the fuel. This issue has been dealt with by adding 2stroke oil by motorists. And more recently lubricity is increased by adding 5-20% biodiesel to dino diesel. I'm sure that all varies by region too.

Thanks Forced,

Coming from you, I now know what say is true. My question was based on a bunch of literature at the emissions shop. That literature said that the new fuel is harder on our engines, etc.

I appreciate your straightforward knowledge on this issue. I've read a ton of your posts and can tell that you know what you are talking about.

A dirty running engine with LSD and a clean running engine with ULSD.

Quote:This issue has been dealt with by adding 2stroke oil by motorists.
No. The issue is dealt with at the refinery by meeting set lubricity standards before it can be delivered. Its further dealt with by the fuel stations when they add their own proprietary additive blends. The end user adding even more additives has no benefit.

2-stoke oil has no place being used in diesel, its not designed to mix with anything but gasoline. In a 21 gallon tank, adding even 16oz is only 168:1 ratio. Such an amount is the highest reasonable volume likely to be used per tankful and makes zero difference to the lubricity of the fuel. Fuel lubricity doesn't even matter much for our engines, the injection pump is lubricated by engine oil.

Quote:That literature said that the new fuel is harder on our engines, etc.
It isn't. Its actually far better for them since it reduces the amount of sulfur and soot produced by the engine that contaminates the oil and cokes the injectors, pistons and rings. That also means you can run a longer oil change interval, further saving money and reducing waste.

Forced why do you write this when you know it is not true?
Fuel lubricity is very important for the life of the IP elements and the injectors

And in the beginning of this treat you wrote that no additive is needed since they don't work, but later you wrote that fuel stations add additives to improve lubricity.

Wow: are you saying that additives work for fuel stations but not for us? or are you saying that fuel stations are mistaken because fuel lubricity isn't important(according to you)?

Thank you for the link ronnie. That had good information.

A good friend of mine works as an industrial chemist out of a testing lab in Long Beach California. His work is to assay and qualify the output of the refineries. It includes tests such as was mentioned in the link for lubricity.

Most of the fuel runs down the pipeline to holding tanks and is "untreated" or unmodified. It is blended with additives by the end user for different markets and uses.

The diesel fuel in the holding tank is tested before dispensing to ensure it meets the minimum requirements required by the Federal and local (AQMD and CARB) authorities especially the required maximum sulfur content.

Different end users blend additives at their respective facilities before they are tanker trucked out to the retailers. Many lower cost retailers buy directly and blend only the required additives ( such as a percentage of alcohols in gasoline). Retailers such as Chevron and Shell have a heavy dose of additives.

The value of the various additives is not without debate, but as to who tests the fuel? Testing is done all along the distribution channel to ensure a consistent product for performance and environmental reasons. No one wants to brave the fines and penalties and lawsuits that can occur if you decide not to test and document. A battery of tests on a million gallon batch of fuel is nothing compared to the hammer blow fines the EPA can levy if you distribute sub standard fuel. Here in Southern California, there is a lot of testing.

As to the issue of lubricity. The link ronnie shared backs up what my friend remarked about lubricity - bio diesel has considerably more lubricity than ULSD alone. A small blend in the B2 or B5 range is economical and effective in improving the lubricity of ULSD dramatically.

There are also additives that help with the bacteria issues & recently I have hears issues of an actual virus that is breeding in diesel, but I have no further information (other than the owner of a large boat manufacturer I know & trust).

A virus needs a host, so it would need some critters in the fuel in order to cause problems.

I can be wrong, don't take everything I say as verbatim, please fact-check first.

Here is i tip, fishing vessels, ferry's etc have strict rules for safety, so if you find some that use additives for their diesel and engine oil, you can be quite certain that it is of good quality and worth to try. I got some from a car ferry mechanic and so far it has been working great. The additive is called a clean burning catalyst. I use it in one of my cars where I mix 25% WVO with the diesel, and the combustion chamber and valves stay clean.

Jesse, check out Ronnie's link. Doesn't look like the 2 stroke oil did well.
