In close to 2 years now, I've lost 1 O-ring and maybe a half a mile a gallon.

Diesel Kleen, comes in a grey bottle for the summer and the white for the winter. You can get it at Wal-Mart.

They say you should run some sort or additive to "lube" the injectors since the ULSD doesnt have the same sulfer content. I dont know how much of that is true and I guess only time will tell, but ULSD has been out for a while now and I dont know of anything going wrong from it other than loss of some power and MPG's.


The d-max owners can beat me in the 1/4 mile all day long, but the next day Ill still be towing 10,000 lbs up a 7% grade and not having a problem.

I'll race any D-Max on the road to 200,000 miles to see who makes it.

I vote option "A". Doug Gibson doesn't know what he's talking about and he failed English class in high school.

ULSD has been on the market for a couple of years now and our trucks run just fine on it.

Scott you forgot option C) A moron on drugs.

I vote "C"

Yea that would work too lol

Hell the only engine I think that would be able to work as long and as hard as the 7.3 is the 5.9, but the body would fall off the dodge 1/2 way through the engines life

Little fun fact of the day (most people in school prolly already know) but "C" is the most common answer on most tests....I used to pass by just filling in all "C"'s and turing it in, wasnt a pretty grade but I would usally pass when I did it. The teachers got smarter
