What is Diesel Kleen +Cetane Boost?

Diesel Kleen +Cetane Boost is a leading multi-function diesel fuel additive from Power Service. It is designed to improve the performance and longevity of any diesel engine. Its primary benefits include:

• Cleans Dirty Injectors: Restores lost power and fuel economy by cleaning both traditional and modern High-Pressure Common-Rail (HPCR) injectors.
• Boosts Cetane Number: Increases the cetane number of diesel fuel by up to 6 points, leading to faster cold starts, smoother engine operation, and reduced engine noise.
• Improves Lubricity: Adds essential lubrication to protect pumps and injectors from premature wear, especially with Ultra-Low-Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel.
• Reduces Emissions: Helps reduce exhaust emissions and black smoke by promoting a more complete combustion cycle.

Understanding Treatment Ratios

Diesel Kleen offers two primary treatment ratios depending on your goal:

• Standard Treatment (Performance): The recommended ratio for everyday use is 1 ounce of Diesel Kleen for every 3 gallons of diesel fuel. This ratio is ideal for maintaining injector cleanliness, boosting cetane, and improving fuel lubricity with every fill-up.
• Maximum Treatment (Cleaning): For a deep cleaning cycle to remove stubborn deposits, the ratio is doubled to 1 ounce of Diesel Kleen for every 1.5 gallons of diesel fuel. This is often used for an initial cleaning or periodically to restore peak performance.

Example Calculation

Let's say you have a Ford F-250 with a 34-gallon fuel tank and you want to perform a standard treatment for a performance boost.

• Calculation: 34 gallons / 3 gallons per ounce = 11.33 ounces.
• Action: You would add approximately 11.33 oz of Diesel Kleen to your tank before or after filling up with 34 gallons of diesel.

If you wanted to do a maximum cleaning cycle on the same truck:

• Calculation: 34 gallons / 1.5 gallons per ounce = 22.67 ounces.
• Action: You would add approximately 22.67 oz for a deep clean.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How often should I use Diesel Kleen?
For best results, Power Service recommends using Diesel Kleen at every fill-up to keep your fuel system clean and operating at peak efficiency.

Can I use too much Diesel Kleen?
Over-treating is generally not harmful to your engine, but it is not cost-effective. Sticking to the recommended ratios provides all the advertised benefits without wasting product.

Should I add the additive before or after fueling?
It can be added before or after fueling. Adding it before helps ensure a thorough mix as the fuel fills the tank, but adding it after is also effective.

What's the difference between the silver and white bottle?
The silver bottle (Diesel Kleen +Cetane Boost) is a multi-season additive focused on cleaning and performance. The white bottle (Diesel Fuel Supplement +Cetane Boost) is formulated for winter use, containing anti-gel properties to prevent fuel from gelling in cold temperatures.
