Propel's Diesel HPR Fuel
#16
I'd thought it would have been more. I stand corrected. The place I buy it at is a WNY Carwash chain. It's $3.15 now but I get a 0.08 cent discount for having their monthly Super Kiss wash package and also get another .04 cents off by tying my ch3cking account to my account there. When I drive into PA on I90, it's much more than that. Kentucky last year was about 2.60ish or so.

Diesel prices are ranging from $3.69 a gallon up to $4.09 a gallon depending on where you buy it.

Thanks for that link, bobcat. I'll read it tomorrow.
Better be careful because if CARB,climate change peeps, AOC and her crew as well as others, petroleum would be banned. Problem is that alternative power sources as well as other green solutions are NOWHERE near being able to replace cheap, plentiful petroleum energy in terms of availability, sustainability and cost. Rest easy...
I'll never see it in the near future unless I'm 3000 miles to the West with my 16.
I like the fact that you guys have 50 cetane fuel, ours has a sticker on that says 40 cetane MIN. What are you boys paying for a gallon of diesel out there?

It's considered a renewable fuel I guess.

scary, in reading the ad for the new fuel...it reads to me like kerosene....which would make all the claims about oder , Nox, etc true....but kerosene has no lube value. what is the lube value of this new fuel. Its not bio blend because bio blends do have greater lube value and at the same time higher in NOx. unless I missed the lube value part.

For using this fuel, the autoignition and flash points are what you should pay attention to. Bio diesel has a significantly lower autoignition temperature (700F to 800F) than 100% diesel (>1200F) which is important in the regeneration cycle of the DPF. Bio-diesel has a much higher flash point (266F) than normal diesel (126F) which is important in the combustion chamber. For these two reasons is why I think they limit the biodiesel content in the manual to B20 which still maintains similar autoignition and flash points to that of normal diesel. While the HPR Diesel promises to meet all the ASTM D975 for ULSD, they don't mention anything about its flash point or autoignition temperatures.
Bio fuel has high Nox than number 2 diesel, and the general thought is the B20 rating is due to the max Nox emissions goal.
