Fuel-supplier is misleading you guys and the mechanics aren’t lying. There is a problem with the lubricity of ULSD and Stanadyne and other major manufactures state that in their statements check their web sites. Its simple hydrotreating takes out other properties in the fuel and makes it dry like D1 diesel but even worse. Ask yourself this if it weren’t a problem would engine makers have to go back and change the engines for 2007? Would injection system manufacturers complain about relaxed standards? Stanadyne says there are no real regulations on fuel quality and what little that is in place is not sufficient to guarantee true protection, its not motor oil its fuel and different specifications apply.

Check Stanadyne’s web site if you don’t believe me. D975 standard is a joke. http://www.stanadyne.com/new/ppt/showfile.asp?id=3437
