I bought a gray bottle of the diesel kleen about an hour ago and put in the tank. I have been doing the WOT runs a few times a day as I live out in the country and its pretty easy to do. I also ordered the gasket set and o rings for the egr valve to pull it out tomorrow and give it a good cleaning as well as new fuel filters. I also just ordered some Rev X to throw in as well and am going in Mon for the tranny service hopefully.

Having seen a VOA on Lucas shows no real additives other than a thick mineral oil. Also there is a demonstration on BITOG with before and after Lucas was added to an oil. With the Lucas added to the oil the oil litteraly turned into a froth. Having an oil full of air, (and remember air will compress) is not good for the HEUI injection system which operates the oil at a high pressure.
Stay away from the Lucas in the 6.0 psd engine. On the otherhand, the Rev X is outstanding for stiction prone injectors.
Good Luck...

Thanks Troy thats pretty disturbing stuff as we used to sell lucas by the case load to the OTR truckers and I have ran it in my 7.3 for the last year. But not running it in the 6.0 is duly noted lol.
