Instantly it felt like it had some more pep to it. After calculating my mileage, i gain a little over 1.0mpg. Most likely its about the same as dieselkleen.
Forgive me for being the eternal skeptic, but it's normal to have variances of 1 mpg or more between each fillup. And that's without changing driving style, additives, or anything whatsoever.

When there are thousands and thousands of miles of logged mileage tracking and testing (both with and without the additive), and the additive shows a consistent and higher fuel mileage average, then I might be inclined to try it. So far, I haven't seen any additives that have proven mileage gains in those tests.

Was getting ready to start a Monster Diesel thread when I saw this one. I enjoyed another good episode of American Chopper last night (wish the family would heal and get back together).

I'm thinking of trying a bottle; when the founder started using the chemistry analysis, that caught my attention. Perhaps it's "snake oil" and perhaps it's science. Time will tell.....it always does!

A few years ago I ordered some items from a company in New York and just to be nice they included a gallon of some kind of diesel additive. When the items that I ordered came and they were absolutely worthless, it made me wonder about the quality of the diesel additive that they sent. Needless to say, it never went into a diesel engine. I am just a little skeptical of new untried products but am waiting to hear the results that you guys come up with. I guess somebody has to try them so they won't be untried.....

I was wondering about this product as well. I started a thread under the General Diesel folder and I appreciate Gasgrunt (Chris) for directing me to this thread. I too, did not see on their website where they said they would send you a free sample. I hope some of you don't have this confused with "Film Fluid" free samples. I know it works.

When you request literature it tells you that they will email you when your free sample ships. I did this two weeks ago I haven't received literature, an email or a free sample. But I am sure after being on national TV they might be a touch busy.

That may be because they spent so much money having OCC build the chopper that there is no $$$ left to produce the product

Apparently they have updated their web site, because it surely didn’t tell me they were going to send me a free sample. I'm sure you are right being on OCC probably quadruple their sales
