Default Low sulfur diesel

A buddy of mine (who owns aFord ... poor guy!)heard that the new low sulfur diesel will eat up the o-rings in a Dodge unless you use a diesel additive. Has anyone else heard this rumor? Is the diesel additive worth using and are there any preferred additives out there for Dodges?

Thanks.

Jeff

the frd guy is full of it the only trucks that will have a problam are th older 80s trucks with the natural rubber o rings
thereasons to use an additive it that they took out all the lubrication propertys by trying t make it "run cleanar" so it lubricates the fuel pumps

Removing the sulfer from fuel will not make It eat the o-rings.
We already know your buddy is not too smart. ( He drives a Ford )
