I like the idea of putting it into a stabil bottle so you can measure it. Just wish they were bigger.

Also I would guess the main reason that the ford product wasn't tested was that it either wasn't available 4 years ago, or simply because it's a Chevy/GMC forum so why would they bother.

I'll start a new thread on the proposal to have our own testing performed, depending on the interest, and willingness to support financially by the manufacturers and forum members, I'll run the show on it. I would think that just finding a testing lab, and getting the different products to test would be most of the work involved.

Once I create the new thread I'll post a link here so anyone following it will find it. I'll go and register on the dieselstop, and the PSD forum as well to try to garner interest and support for it.
Good Idea. Thanks . . . . .ken

But I agree. new additives have come out, possible new formulas for older additives.
That was me, yes $430.00 per test here in Canada, see .pdf.
I would contribute to a new run of tests as well.....

Thanks

Also, that is with a 40% discount as we have an account with Intertek (but prob anyone off the street could get the same price).

I have been racking my brain trying to figure out how to hide it in a job but testing of diesel fuel will stick out like a sore thumb to the bean counters here)
