What are the dangers of low sulfur diesel fuel ?
Never ever use a Octane Boost in a diesel engine. Octane actually reduces the cetane number. Cetane is to diesel as Octane is to Gasoline, but they are not to be used in each other. Use a good reputable company that has been in business for years. You want to use a company that has a solid reputation in the additive business. I would stay away from companies, that promote their products through Truck Pulls, or Stadium Sponsorships. I would lean toward companies that supply fuel additives to the refinery or fuel suppliers themselves. This will give you the ease of mind that the product has been field tested and proven from refinery to end user. There are a lot of backyard start up companies with out the proven years of field experience trying to ride on reputable additive companies.
That is a true article, however. Bosch has to admit to the use of additives. All fuels after they are refined are sent to large fuel storage facilities called Terminals. This is where your local fuel supplier picks up a load of on / off road fuel. Now on the on road end of it, fuel is injected with a lubricity additive. What Bosch says is that, they neither recommend nor test due to warranty claims. From a lubricity additive standpoint there are three general categories of LA technology 1.) Mono Acids 2.) Carboxcylic Acids 3.) Synthetic Esters... Each have their advantages / disadvantages, keep in mind the owner of the terminal or refiner have done oversight testing on to which chemistry they choose based on price and performance.
i used redline because its an emulsifier , and gives my Fuel filter a chance to stop water particles from making it to my engine , the set back is a higher possibility of gelling how ever i would rather do that than use an demulsifier and try to pass small particles of water threw my injection system and into my engine
