Anyone running a gm 6.5td, what fuel additives are you using. With the low sulpher diesel, ive been advised to use an aditive on every fill up but haven't a clue which is best for this model.

You could add some synthetic 2 stroke oil to make up for the missing lubricants

.. ive been advised to use an aditive on every fill up .. By whom?
Where are you?
All UK specification diesel has lubricity additive as standard and there should be no need for any additional treatment.
If you are in the USA or outside the EU then you may need to investigate further.

Just purchased a Suburban 6.5td from Belgium and was advised by him to put in an aditive on fill ups. If people have been running this without aditives, then I aint gona bother and will just use the premium fuel just to be on the safe side.

US diesel is reported to be pretty rough stuff so seems little point in wasting your money on premium diesel.

Cheers guys, I can relax now. This is the car I purchased and is being delivered next Thursday thanks to Shiply. ibb.co/FHDqCQXThe interior is nasty and I am in the hunt for a set of full Leather seats. If anyone know of any leads, would appreciate a heads up. |
