Schied Lightning NTPA Legal Diesel Fuel April 09, 2015 08:53AM
What is the verdict on this fuel? I know its been out for a while, but is it worth running over farm fuel with an additive such as Cenpeco puller lube? I pull mostly brush pulls at county fairs and festivals. Any noticeable power increases? I'm running about 500hp. Does it lube the fuel system as good Cenpeco does? Thanks.

If you are local to a countrymark station buy their Premium Dieselex-4.

Is there a good diesel fuel additive that adds lubricity and maybe some cetane?

I don't know about tractors, but I add about 4 oz of power steering fluid along with some Kleen. It's night and day difference in performance in my Duramax.

Two stroke oil helped with the older engines in my big trucks, I don't like the idea of using transmission or power steering fluid as you don't know what the additives will do do the injection system. I believe there is testing somewhere that compared most comercially available additives for lubricity and the two stroke oil was above anything else, can't say it does anything for cetane though.

Correct, soy is a very good lubricity additive!

B2 has plenty of lubricity to offset the ultra low sulfur diesel, no other additives needed.

I found this very interesting study on adding 2-stroke oil to diesel:

We use hydraulic oil or any oil with out detergent's like they have in motor oil and some 2 cycle oil's the detergent's are hard on injectors. A cheap 20wt or 30wt hydraulic oil you buy at your discount farm store works good. We have used it for years in over the road trucks and pulling pump's. Some guy's like to by cheap non detergent power steering oil and it is fine also. Just to have the quart case to care for easy access. One quart to a 100 gal is what we have used. It's does extend the injector life if they are set correctly.
