Default Can I use regular diesel on 2010 Ford F-250 Powerstroke?

Hello,

Can some one help me with this?

I'm from kuwait and i'm planning to order 2010 Ford F-250 PowerStroke from the united states. And i'm facing one problem which is we don't have Ultra low sulfur diesel here in kuwait.

So, is it possible to use regular diesel or low sulfur diesel Instead of ultra low sulfur diesel on this truck?

If no, what is your recomendations for me?

Thanks.

I believe you can if you delete the DPF. I'm not 100% sure

It is, but like others have said I would do a DPF delete. I know they sold some of these trucks overseas without the DPF installed... I know Mexico got some.

You could run it as is, but the DPF is going to clog insanely fast and you're going to get HORRIBLE fuel mileage and it will be very underpowered going into regen all the time.

Hit up one of the vendors for a DPF delete kit, and the appropriate tuning to match it. Then you can have a fire breathing 550+rwhp truck that can get get upwards of 20mpg if you drive it nice.
