Is anyone using Royal Purple’s new Max-Tane? It appears to be very comprehensive - good for year round use.

Max-Tane™ Total Diesel Fuel Performance | Royal Purple - Synthetic Motor Oil & Performance Lubricants

 

This is the first I've seen and or herd of this product.

I've been using PM-22 since my truck was new and at -25 for a few weeks I had no jelling. Truck started and ran fine.

 

I also use PM-22, and I think it's a good product. Since PM-22 is not an anti-gel like PM-23, and not readily available at stores, I started using Power Services (White Bottle) as we're having a cold snap.

It's good to know that in PM-22 is holding well in sub zero temps. Perhaps I'll just stick with it and call it good, instead of switching back and fourth. Hence my inquiry about Royal Purple's new additive - it has all the properties we're looking for in one bottle.

 

Thanks for the info. If I can get it locally I may give it a try.
10 and 20 oz bottles will work much better with a 50 gal tank than the 8 and 16 oz bottles of stanadyne I am currently using

 

I have a bottle of it, and spoke to Royal Purple reps about it. The stats on it are really good.

I have yet to fill up with a fresh tank, but when I do, I will use it and report back.

 

Please do! I am very interested in your assessment. Unfortunately, I am unable to find the product locally. Amazon.com has it, but it's several weeks (so they say) before it's available to ship.

 

Sorry ignore this post

 

Think I'll grab a couple of the 20oz and give it a try. I don't run any additive right now.

 

I'll report back early next week.

In speaking to them, this product has been on the market for about 18 months, just in the 20oz size as they were getting feedback on it, but they redid their formula so it is double the concentration, so the 10oz bottle is good for a tank.

They said they are working on expanding their distribution. I am typically a big fan of their products.

 

Are you saying the 10oz isn't the same as half a 20oz? According the their site the mix is 10oz into 50g or 20oz into 100g. My cost for the 20oz is only about 25% more than the 10oz.

 

No, they increased the concentration on all their sizes.

The 20oz container used to be good for 50gal, now it does 100gal.

 

I added an ATTA, AT80R external added two 20 oz bottles to that tank. Then added separate bottle or third bottle to the main tank. I do this combination every time I fill up and again I have had no jelling. I buy the PM-22 in the 20 oz Bottles by the 24 count for the Ford dealer. My receipt is for 213.84.

 

Did you find some Steve?
Can't locate any around here ..... RP web site says you can get it at Canadian Tire, JB Power Center or Part Source ....... none of them have it or even have it in their system......

RP did add this to the web site

Max-Tane

But all was not lost, I did find this stuff. It's a 2 part system and one half is GREEN so it's gotta be GREAT

 

I get it from my supplier that shows they have stock in the warehouse of the 20's. I'll have an order coming in from the warehouse next Thursday so I won't get it until then. I checked Dix Perf out your way and they show no stock of the 20's or the 10's.

 

Thanks Steve
