I know the end result is to be 15PPM, but I read in a trade magazine that, because of the residue in the pipeline, the refined product has more like 5PPM at the refinery-it is true? Wayne I do not know for sure since I do not work in ourcude unit but have heard 8ppm.. I will ask tonight when I get to work and hopefully have you an answer in the AM..

The LSD fuel has more sulfur than the trap can handle over extended use. Trap can clog and cause restriction. The '07 5.9 CTD is one exception to the rule (no trap) so LSD is O.K. The 6.7 cummins and the 3.0 engine that will be in the Grand Cherokee (early '07) have the trap. Gary. That's true but starting in Jan '07, you'll see the 6.7 in the Rams. These engines have a very elaborite regeneration system in the exhaust system, that runs every 10 hrs of engine operation. When it runs, it cleans the trap out & reburns the soot. It sounds weird when it running in the regen mode but still drives fine. "It's funny how one project eventually leads (or forces) you into another one. It's really just one endless project designed to induce insanity and bankruptcy."

I did a fuel sample/ drain yesterday, checking for water and the fuel still has that yellow/blueish sheen in daylight. Didn't see any water. 2014 Durango R/T 2004 Dodge Ram 3500 SRW SLT short quad Cummins 6 speed 1998 Dodge Durango SLT 5.2 1971 Plymouth Duster- <<<<<MOPAR SPOKEN HERE>>>>>
