I do understand that these additives do give more lubricity, but there are so many people that don't use additives out there and you don't hear about how they're engines are blowing up. I personally think additives are a waste of money.
Maybe it's just a coincidence
Maybe it's not

But there DOES seem to be an awful lot of people replacing their VP-44's lately. And these are only the ones that you hear about that frequent the forums. Only God knows how many others there are out there.

As far as the question of the "burn time" or whatever it's called, it was my understanding that 2 stroke burns better.

DB I think usesLucas and likes it. I haven't tried it.

I wish I knew what the magic formula was because these diesel prices are getting outa hand.

Nevermind, I found the study: http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/sho...d.php?t=177728

Definitely not favorable on MMO. I wonder how the Howes Diesel Treat would fare? They only tested the Meaner Power Kleaner stuff...

For those of you who run Howes, which flavor are you using regularly? The Diesel Treat or Kleaner?
