UPDATE! - August 14, 2007 - BTU values of fuels and chemicals. http://mopar1973man.servehttp.com/pics/btu's%20values.jpg So is it possible that any kind of cetane booster / injection cleaner containing these chemical can IMPROVE you performance? It's not possible. They have considerable reduction in BTU value and extremely low flash points like gasoline. Please take the time time and look up you favorite additive in my MSDS listing. Also for those of you that are switch to BIO Diesel / Ethanol fuels (Gasser). Take notice that both fuel product less power compared to the Dino version. So it will reduce your fuel mileage some... The higher the BTU value the higher HP/TQ…

I been using 2 cycle oil when I'm not running B20. Found another comparison run by diesel heads that tends to confirm, again, that it is not a bad idea to be using a little 2stroke oil. http://dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=177728

You all need to take a look at this... http://relentlessdiesel.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=24 I'll let the pictures do the talking. First one is a customer of mine who bought the ~$3000 kit to make biodiesel in his garage. He drives an '03 Common Rail Dodge. He ran BioDiesel exclusively for 6-7 months. He has dual fuel filters on the truck. He quit running it because of the cost of replacing the filters offset the savings in fuel. They constantly plugged up and required changing. The picture is of his Fuel Control Actuator valve we had to replace. This part is a component on the Bosch CP3 injection pump. This is after all filters and heading straight i…

Can anyone help me? I was talking to a representative about my truck the other day :| :red and he breifly mentioned that I have a 45RE Auto Transmission. Cany You tell me what that means exactly. :smart I bought this truck to tow our 5th wheel trailer, about 6tons, and I was wondering if I should upgrade the torgue converter. :$: I am a novice to mods and really don't know too much about transmissions either so any help there would be greatly appreciated. :cheers Thanks,mab

I was using Stanadyne Lubricity Formula for lube and a water demulsifier. I have recently switched to Super Tech 2 stroke for lube, but I still like the idea of a water demulsifier to keep water out of the pump. I do not want a water emulsifier, because that would allow the water to blend with the fuel and go straight to the IP. I would rather help the fuel filter/water separator do its job, than sneak water past it. Does Power Service, or anything else, demulsify water? Thanks :cheers

Currently dino diesel here is $3.179 a gallon... Then B2 Diesel is $3.259. So now if I was to fill up my truck (35 gallons) tank it would be (3.179 x 35 = $111.27) and Bio diesel is ($3.259 x 35 gallons = $114.07) that is a expense of ($114.07 - $111.27 = $2.80) extra. Remember I'm going to lose MPG so I'll be buying more fuel more often... Now I buy a gallon of 2 cycle oil and it cost about $8 bucks. It will cover 128 gallons of diesel. It will cost me (128 ozs / $8 = 0.06 per ozs.) So if I fill up with dino diesel at ($3.179 x 35 gallons = $111.27) then add my 2 cycle at 128:1 ratio. (35 x $0.06 = $2.10) so my total bill will be ($111.27 + $2.10 = $113.37) which …

I found this on another web site... I copied as it was posted and brought it here... The following are the preliminary results of a research study on diesel fuel Lubricity Additives. There is likely to be further commentary and explanation added at a future time. PURPOSE: The purpose of this research was to determine the ability of multiple diesel fuel additives to replace the vital lubricity component in ULSD (Ultra Low Sulfer Diesel) fuel. HISTORY: ULSD fuel is the fuel currently mandated for use in all on road diesel engines. This fuel burns cleaner and is less polluting than it’s predecessor, called Low Sulfer Diesel Fuel. Low sulfer fuel con…

Now I got one for all you to look at now... Go over to my MSDS page and check out all the fuel additives... Look at the MSDS listings. Remember if its toxic and can't be eaten or drank it should be listed. These listing are for emergency personal to know how to handle say a fire, poisoing, etc.Now that you looked at MSDS sheets now go over and look at the chemical listings. I've got most of the CAS# numbers and alternate names now for most chemicals. :?: QUESTIONS :?: _____________________________________________________________________________________Now tell me how many products do you see here that are lubricants??? :?: Now tell me how many are cetane boosters??? …

Wel gang... I'm going to show to graphs... First off a bit of history... From day one when I bought the truck I was told by people to get PowerService +Cetane Boost and run that with the truck to protect the IP/LP pumps. I ran PS till 50K mile when I lost my first LP & IP pumps. After losing both of them I start looking at better solutions that PS, MMO, etc... Hence the start of 2 cycle oil research at 85K miles. I din't have the dosing ratio figured out in the early time but by 95K miles I had figured it out! MPG graph... Take notice the PS up 50K is flat no change and after 95K miles it take off! (2 cycle oil) Cost per mile... Notice the red…
