Yes. This additive is beneficial to all diesel engines, including yours.
Only one or the other would I use. I'm a Master Certified Mechanic with over ten years of experience. I would stick with lubricity for a Ford (Navistar/Powerstroke, for example). You can use any of the other engines you want, but don't use them both at the same time. There is no such thing as too much information.
It does not, in fact. That would necessitate the use of either Performance Formula (All Season) or Winter 1000. In my CR TDI, I combine the Performance Formula and the Lubricity Formula.
No, this is solely for the purpose of lubrication. Sanadyne's Performance Formula all-season additive is the one you're looking for. It has an anti-gelling feature as well as a lubricity formula, among other things. On Amazon, type in 38565 Stanadyne. It is impossible to overlook.

I chose this product based on a story I heard: during the first Gulf War, the US Army discovered that using jet fuel was causing engine damage to many of their diesel vehicles (including HUMVEEs). As a result, they hired Stanadyne to come up with a solution. They not only invented a lubricant to protect the Army's vehicles, but it has also proven to be extremely effective, reducing the Army's fuel hauling to just one type (JP-1). 8) for each and every one of their automobiles And, according to what I've heard, Stanadyne is now used in airport vehicles to enable them to run on jet fuel. br>br>I mixed about 2 oz with a half dose of another performance/lubricant, and I swear it increased my mpg by a mile per gallon. I'm still putting it through its paces, but so far, I'm impressed.
I've worked in the transportation industry for over 20 years and can tell you that ULSD is pure garbage. I'll give you the same advice I give my customers: reduced lubricity, reduced cetane, and reduced life. br> Many other additives emulsify water; if you have one, use it; if you use additives, I'd bet you don't have to drain it nearly as often; this is not a coincidence; your additives are emulsifying water and passing it through your injectors. br>This additive will slick up your fuel without letting water in, and you'll notice a difference as well as protect your equipment if you use it on a regular basis.
Stanadyne's bottle is a complete and total shambles. I returned to Opti-Mat for a second time. Simply because of Stanadyne's bottle, lube! You only need a quarter ounce per two gallons of diesel, but you won't be able to do so with this bottle due to its physical limitations. Just trying to pour an ounce out of this horrible container will leave you with a stinky additive all over your bench, the floor, and hopefully not your pants and shoes. I'm sure I spilled more product on the floor than I needed to put in my car! When I got my XPD, I threw out this almost-full bottle.
Cummins common rail injection systems (03-05) This stuff is mandatory to at least fill up your fuel filter housing with it every time you change a fuel filter on current Dodge Ram 2500 and up. Diesel injectors will stick open at some point; it's just a matter of when. Moving parts can become stuck, resulting in long-term damage. Run this stuff on a regular basis to avoid a lack of lubrication. One of the most lubricating additives on the market. I have a Cummins with 300k miles on it that pulls four cars, and I've been running 8oz of this every five tanks or so. No issues with the original injectors. Whether you notice a difference or not, trust me when I say that it does make a difference in the long run and may even get stuck injectors moving again.
I have an older 1984 Mercedes 300D diesel with a mechanical fuel injector system that I use to keep the engine lubricated and, I believe, to increase the Cetane for faster starting. I've been using this for years, and it helps to replace the sulphur that used to be present in diesel fuel. Each time you fill up your tank, you add a small amount to it. br>br>I clean my injectors with a product called "Diesel Purge" every now and then, and I'm always amazed at how much better my diesel starts. This is the only two additives I use on my Mercedes-Benz diesel, which has over 200,000 miles on it and starts and runs perfectly.
I found out that I had a problem with. Overall, it was a success. I discovered that I had a vehicle issue, and this will most likely assist me in getting over the hump. Now that vehicle has been returned to 100% we will see if this makes any true adjustments.
I'm not sure if stiction is a real word, but it seems to accurately describe the friction that occurs when an injector is dirty. Stiction is no longer an issue with this product. For temperatures below 20 degrees F, use the stanadyne performance formula.
This is what I use to try to prevent CP failure. When I use my truck, I notice that it does not regenerate as much.
