Geeez....Just go to TSC or Wally World, get your Power Service, dump it in your tank and be done with it.

Where did you find that PowerService is an emulsifier??? Im not argueing, just curious is all.

 

[nosliw]

technically i'm wrong, it isnt an emulsifier. but from what i've read it acts the same as far as the way it handles water.

Hmmmm OK well i dont really know. it has worked well for my BioDiesel and well heck it is already hydro......(whatever the word is for able to absorb water) i run waterblock filters at every container exit point. I may have to mix up some PowerService White and water and see what happens

 

[nosliw]

do what you want.

i chose a demuslifier because of what it does with water. i started the research when i bought my duramax pickup.

probably a lot less of a problem with a TRACTOR, but i dont know. i'll stick to what i know is good. plus, i get it at a good price locally.

you may have to sign up to read the whole thread. definately worth it, though.

hygroscopic

So what did this test prove? Nothing in my opinion. They did not mix it with fuel. They should have added fuel, water and additive for it to be a real test. Chemical compounds can change and combine when these additives are added to fuel.

i think it was a good little test. what was the most important for me was the real-world SOTP meter.

is it as important for tractors? dunno.

if you guys like PS, that's great. i happen to not.

is it THAT friggin important? probably not! truck/tractor will run good either way. i left this thread to die, because i didn't think there was anything else that could be pulled from it.
