I would agree, The '07 Ford 6.0's are a pre-'07 approved engine so they don't have the requirement for the ULSD. But the 07 GM and Dodge had to get approval under the 07 regs.

Basically the 07 Fords are just left over 06's that Ford was using to buy time until the "08's" came out.

I've been using Redline Diesel Fuel Catalyst. I notice the engine is quieter after 1 shock treatment and the normal ounce per 20 gallons over 4 tank fulls.

I heard that with ultra low its good to add a small amount of tranny fluid when you fill up to put the lube back in. Has anyone else heard of this? I know we used to add tranny fuild to gas burners to remove carbon build up.

Just ad soybean oil in it. The stuff you get from Ford main ingrediant is kerosene,and soybeanoil. I make my own and get 2.5 to 3 mpg better. And i run over 3k miles a week. Pulled my injectors a few weeks ago 150k and really np carbon build up.

When the Switch was being happening over to ULSD I called the Power Service company to find out why Wally world stopped selling their large containers.

the Guy told me that it was a packaging label misunderstanding and Wally world Stopped putting it out because there was nothing on the packageing saying it was ULSD complaint. However the guy went into the science of how they made it USLD compliant..basically alot of stuff i didnt understand however he assured me that the power service formula was ULSD and safe to use. He did explain it to me very well however this was over a year now and i dont remember any of it.
