Baja California ULSD Better News
Remember the old saw (ULSD as far down Mex 1, as El Rosario, but no further)? You can extend ULSD down to the gasolinera at the tiny town of JESUS MARIA. That's a mere 30 miles north of Guerrero Ne...

This summer I was driving long haul for an O/O. He also had a shop where he worked on other people's tractors. One day a fellow who worked up north brought his truck in to have the DPF removed. He had been using fuel that was not ULSD for almost 2 years. Probably meant for off road. The mechanic was instructed to disable the electronics for the DPF and remove the DPF to have it cleaned. I could not believe how plugged that thing had become. No machine can clean a DPF when it really is plugged. Very expensive to replace. As for Mexican trucks not allowed NOB with LSD. I do not see how. I buy fuel about 80 KM south of Nogales. I asked the owner and the driver of the tank truck about ULSD. Nope just regular diesel. Hundreds of Mexican trucks that cross @ Nogales fuel up at this spot every month. Their fuel is not ULSD and I doubt anyone ever checks them. But there must be ULSD somewhere in Mexico. Here is a quote from a Time magazine article
"U.S. exports of ULSD to Mexico more than quadrupled, from 25,000 barrels per day in 2009 to 109,000 barrels per day in 2012."
