No B20 here (yet) cummins is still dragging there feet on letting us 6.7 users burn it. my state wants go go to B20 soon.All of our diesel fuel is B5 in Mn even if the pump is labeled or not, it's mandated by the state legislature.You don't see to many stations offering different choices on fuel in my area.

[dorkweed]

Are you sure it's B5 SnoFarmer???? For some reason I thought it was B2 in MinneSota.

[Mopar1973Man]

I thought the same thing too...:confused:

[SnoFarmer]

you could be right it still is 2%"The mandate requires a blend of 5 percent biodiesel in all diesel sold in the state by May 1 of next year. The percentage climbs to 10 percent by 2012 before reaching 20 percent three years later. Diesel fuel sold in Minnesota today contains 2 percent biodiesel, courtesy of a 2005 mandate, the nation's first when it was signed into law in 2002."

I had the 1693 error code along with the P0234 code a couple of weeks back when my lift pump failed but i don't know what the codes are or if it had anything to do with the pump failure.

The 1693 is a companion code. This just tells you there is another code. The 234 code is your "turbo boost limit exceeded". Someone else will have to chime in on if there is anything that needs to be done with that. At this time I have never had a problem with my turbo.

I just started running the 2 cycle oil in my fuel and I think the truck even makes more torque with it.

[guesswho512]

without it, people always know when i arrive at their houses. one coworker said he thought i was UPS or a school bus. with it....everyone says "i didn't hear you pull up".

[Mopar1973Man]

Funny... Because Mom says that all the time I did hear you pull up... But I can't escape the Dog (Diesel) he can hear the exhaust brake nearly a mile out as I slow down to turn into the driveway.

im using WMO in my idi with the stanadyne db2 ip at about 100-1 and it seems to help with cold starts as well as power. this ulsd really stinks.... pun intended.

[guesswho512]

i didn't have diesel until 08. but i don't think dodge or cummins designed my motor with ULSD in mind. bosch knows that poor fuel kills pumps. but did LSD smell different and sound different or is this the nostalgia of yesteryear?

[Racer Dan]

Some people do ask funny questions. I was putting Molyslip E engine oil additive in my race car drysump oil tank at the speedway and the guy pitted beside me said " hey is that stuff any good"? And I said "no not really", like why would I put it in my engine if it wasn't, lol! It is molybdenum disulphide. My diesel loves it too. In the USA I believe it is sold under the name "Mr. Moly" and there is a whole product line, not just the oil additive. It'll probably reduce the friction, increase the torque and hp output as well as your mpg. Quieter engine too but go to molyslip.com and decide for yourselves. I've been using it since 1977...

Some people do ask funny questions.

if i have heard one person say "ULSD stinks" or "it smells different"......than i've heard 10 people say it...since i have NO experience with it...i thought i'd ask.

It stinks, sucks and generally blows. IDK if it smells funny too.

[SnoFarmer]

ulsd doesn't stink as much as the diesel fuel did before ulsd. gas has a stronger smell. With this ulsd if I have some in a can I have to smell it twice to be sure it's fuel.Or maybe I'm just getting old.:confused:
