Super Low Sulphur Diesel and Cat engines???
Howdy again, Thanks for the help with my locked safe issue. Now I know
you just stand back and throw 450.00 at it and it will open. Now on to my next question/topic. I own and operate a gas station/tire store in Gunnison Colorado and have been talking to various fuel suppliers and addative distributors about ultra low sulphur diesel and winterizing this fuel. Most are saying that due to the differences in the chemical makeup, getting this fuel to reach a CFPP lower than -25 to -30F is going to be a problem (at lesat in Gunnison it will be). Availibility of #1 diesel to thin it is supposed to be a problem this winter as well, not to mention that this approach apparently no longer has the same favorable effect that it used to. So today while talking to a new rep, he mentioned the low lubricity of the ULSD and the problems older diesel engines, Cats were noted, have running this stuff. He noted injector pump failure specifically. Anyone have any input or experience they can share? Thanks gang, Doug Engel in Gunnison, Co. '81 FC35SB |
