The purpose of it is to clean fuel injector clogs and fuel lines
I recall that there were 20 of them
In short, yes. All diesel engines should be able to use this. Using it twice on a 1986 Detroit Diesel 6 you can see I've used it twice. It is 2L. put it through your system the first time, you should change your fuel filter since it performs most of its work on your fuel tank and fuel lines headed to the engine before you turn on the engine.

This would be a great diesel car if you weren't worried about high repair costs. In any case, my very friendly BMW service representative told me the computer had reported some carbon build-up in the engine. I would have to remove the header and pay $2400 for the examination of my beast. It's up in the intake side, they said. Additionally, there was no estimate of how much the repair would cost. Well, I guess. That's really great! It goes without saying that I am overwhelmingly pleased. A Techron charge was added to all tanks just for good measure. While I would have to spend more money on fuel to get this thing out, it gets up to 40 miles per hour on the highway and accelerates like a rocket, (PS I am not affiliated with It happens that I used to work for one of their competitors, so there were no remunerations for recommending them.
Techron is a gas additive that has been used by me for more than 35 years, and it is perfect to use every 5000 miles to keep fuel injectors clean and increase gas When I went to purchase my small diesel RV, I did some research and learned that Chevron was just starting to make Techron for diesel engines. It's so new that none of the local auto parts stores have it in stock.
At the next fill up, just after my new diesel passed 5000 miles, I poured in a bottle of Techron Diesel. My trip was approximately 2200 miles, and I kept tabs on my actual mileage, which averaged at 17. I admit that this is not scientific in any way. Between 3 and This car gets one mile per gallon. Twenty gallons of Techron were used in the tankful. Last three tankfuls of fuel were spent traveling west with a slight constant quartering headwind across relatively flat terrain (Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado eastern plains).
As the high-performance rig is not used daily, it was important to ensure it had clean injectors and fuel system. As a result, our gas mileage went up by five miles per gallon and has stayed the same for two tanks, as well as a smoother running engine. In general, I do not write reviews since they tend to be off topic or express opinion rather than presenting actual facts. Those looking to use this as a sprinter will be thrilled to know it truly works better than they could ever imagine. This is a great product! We have found it available at Chevron stations, but Amazon is currently the only place we have seen the diesel version.
The Diesel version of their product is a great improvement as well as I have been using their gasoline version when combining the two and have gained 2 - 3 MPG and noticed quicker throttle response when adding it every other tankful. When I worked for Jaguar cars in the USA, we told our dealers that this was an easy method to clean the injectors and improve their performance and driveability.
The Van I have is a 2017 Mercedes Sprinter, and I want to make sure I'm using only top quality fuel system cleaner Techron D Concentrate for Diesel Engines (Chevron). Each time I drive three (3) thousand miles I apply the bottle. If you have a diesel engine with a DPF filter, I highly recommend taking this action.
This app runs in my Windows 7 computer. Three things * The mileage didn't increase * I installed a new fuel filter so that it hasn't gotten dirty in the time I ran it * it hadn't improved the power * to summarize, I don't believe it makes a difference.
As a result of carbon buildup, the intake manifold was diagnosed. I could see a noticeable performance difference after using this product, even though it will not resolve that problem.
When the engine is idle, white smoke appears. In terms of MPG, it also improved.
