All on highway diesel is ULSD now. I am selfemployed and work on Cummins and Pwrstrokes. All of my customers have started using Diesel Kleen by Power Service. You can buy it at Advanced,Autozone etc. It comes in a silver quart bottle that is around 8.00.It has a lubricant in it called slick diesel and also raises the Cetaine value as much as 6 points(like octane in gasoline). All of my customers have picked up from 1 to 2 miles per gallon by using it.If your tank is around 35 gallons pour 1/2 quart in it everytime you fill up. The lubrication alone is worth the extra 4.00 per fillup plus the added fuel mileage. Since ULSD has come on the market I have been swamped with injector wear and failures in powerstrokes and lift pump/injection pump failures in cummins.Not to mention fuel leaks caused by oring deteriation from the low sulfur.

Pouring in ATF will help lubricity? I have a bunch of Honda fluid. Lots of Honda gear lube too.
Running untaxed diesel is hazardous to your wallet if the DOT dips your tank!

That has been my impression, but I haven't been everywhere to know for sure. ULSD was in the ground here at least 12 months before it was law. It was all you could get, clear(taxed)diesel for at least a year before like I said.
