My question is: What is a proper lubricity additive? Have read the MSDS sheets on a lot of the current offerings in the market. Except for so called "proprietary" (and therefore not disclosed) ingredients,they all seem to be pretty much the same stuff, only the amount used seems to vary. Many of these ingredients are used as industrial solvents, how does that help? Finally, the dosing ratios are so small as a rule (additive to fuel ratio) does it even make a difference.
Beyond my pay grade so what do others think????????????
Based on current Warranty issues, if you introduce in a 3rd party product that is not Ford approved for the 6.7, you are playing Russian roulette.
Only use Ford 6.7 approved additives made by Ford and specifically recommended by Ford and only in specified amounts.
Keep your receipts, as you do for fuel, and if there is ever a dispute about the snake oil you used, you stick the Ford in their face.
Since your a petro guy, what is the magic ingredient added to the final fuel after refining to raise the lubrication of ULSD? Maybe we could start using the Canadian measuring cups :)
