your take on this diesel additive test?

[BJN644]

BJN- PS had more wear in my engine then MMO..For me, there is no need for PS; then again I only start at -20 F..

Even my 131 said non-2007 Comp but this is a tractor and you need to play with ratios. Again, for me I would NEVER use PS again based on my UOA. YMMV

So you are saying that using Power Service diesel fuel additive showed increased engine wear in a used oil analysis?

YMMV

But my oil test said stop using it and UOA came back fine...Done with it.

Unless your tractor was designed for ULSD Fuel why are you guys not running Off-Road diesel in them?, For my Kubota it says right in the manual to use #2 fuel in it, plus in WV off road fuel is 55 cents cheaper a gallon.

#2 off road = #2 on road( + color)

You don't even need b2 . The diesel manufactures recommend a diesel quality of 460 so b1 would be enough although a minimum it is better than what we are running. Someone gave me a few gallons of biodiesel and I mixed it with 1qt per 32 gallon tank of diesel. There was no difference in mileage and I never noticed any difference in any of my additives.

I looked at the study. Opti-Lube was rated as one of the best additives. I have been using Power Service but thought I would try the Opti-Lube. I looked at Walmart, O'Reillys', and Advance... they did not have it. Who sells the stuff?

I bought my gallon this spring and it came with two different dispensers and a nice pen...

Just got mine Wednesday, came with 2 dispensers also.

I feel ripped though, I didn't get any pen.

Another product not listed in that article is made by Texas Refinery Corporation, their "DZL-PEP Artic". It has a HFRR score of about 413, so that puts it right up there just above the number three spot. Treat ratio is 1:1000. Can't have too many sources of good products, eh? (And no, I am not affiliated with them in any way, shape or form).

I wish they would have tested a sample of diesel straight from the pump since all diesel manufacturers puts additives in the ULSD before they deliver to the station, I would like to see how this compares to the untreated diesel that none of us can get anyway.
