diesel fuel!
 
I would like to know what is differant about diesel fuel other then less sulfur? The new fuel seems to black smoke less. I would like to know if there is anything I can add to my fuel to get the black smoke back?

The new ultra low sulfer fuel is less lubercating and harder on your engine I have heard that lucas fuel add. helps
get back some smoke and better lubes upper cylnders also improve milage i was thinking about trying some my self the guy said to double recomended mix on your first two tank fulls

It's a good idea to add something for lubricity. Some use 2 cycle oil...not sure if that adds any smoke or not?? Never done it.
A lot of the fuel additives actually help to reduce smoke by getting a more efficient burn.

no died wont make it smoke more. why do you want smoke? less smoke and more boost is better

more boost up untill a certain point, then ur just going beyond what the turbo can flow efficiently. but more air the better

well if you want to be technical yes i was just stating a point

also the ULSD has a higher temp of gelling which doesnt really matter anymore at least for the next 8 months. but add two stroke or another fuel additive to lube your engine better and you really dont need more smoke because your just wasting fuel
