Power Service diesel treatment had some clouding at -20F, Howe's a bit more, Hot Shot's the least, Stanadyne 2nd place. Those 4 probably wouldn't have stopped an old MBZ from starting/running at -20. He didn't specify, but I hope the diesel he was testing was full-on summer fuel. Amsoil synthetic 2-stroke oil might be an interesting idea for lubricity, and it did great in his rustproofing test.
Power Service 9-1-1 (he didn't mention mix ratios of any of the products) didn't pour, nor would the untreated diesel. Amsoil 2 stroke oil flowed gloppily, but 9-1-1 didn't flow at all. For all I know he might have mixed the Amsoil at 50:1, which nobody does in diesel fuel in real life. > On November 6, 2019 at 11:30 AM Curley McLain via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > > So what's their conclusion?
