Boron Motor Silk MSDA-16 (16oz / 500ml ) Diesel Treatment

MotorSilk® Diesel Fuel Additive is a formulated additive for ULTRA low-Sulfur diesel fuels (Sulfur has been reduced from 500PPM to 15PPM). The product provides greatly enhanced lubricity to low sulfur diesel fuel because of an active chemical process which creates a micro layer of extremely low friction film.

Cetane number in typical ultra low sulfur diesel fuel is improved by 8 to 10 numbers; in addition detergency, corrosion protection and fuel stability are improved. Reduced starting time, reduced injector pump wear, and lower emissions and fuel consumption are byproducts of these features. Designed to protect injectors and pump with a permanent Boric Oxide surface under 0.01% friction coefficient.

Diesel Fuel Treatment

Today’s low ultra sulfur fuels (15ppm) may cause premature pump and injector damage or failure resulting from the lack of lubricity which sulfur provides, also expect a drop in fuel economy of ½ MPG and power loss. The Hydrated Boron Molecules in the diesel fuel treatment provides a surface friction coefficient less that 0.01% while it protects 100% of the fuel system from the adverse affects of sulfur, corrosion and carbon.

Any carbon or varnish deposits are permanently removed allowing for the highest injector performance which is the captain of the engine.
The Cetane number increases 8-10 numbers for higher performance during ignition. Associated with higher Cetane fuels are easier startups, enhanced driving performance, better fuel combustion and less noise. Today’s engines are designed for 50 Cetane fuel and anything above that is usually a waste, at a level of Cetane 40, delayed ignition, noise, and fuel and power loss occur.

"Deposit control is a crucial part of brand differentiation strategies designed to enhance diesel engine performance and reduce emissions. Efficient operation of diesel engines depends on proper operation of the fuel injectors, so control of deposits in this critical area is necessary to ensure optimum performance, minimize fuel consumption, and control engine smoke". –Chevron

FEATURES/BENEFITS:

· Eliminate diesel knocks and rough starts
· Easier cold starts at low temperatures
· Maintain the correct pressure rise rate in the combustion chamber
· Permanently remove any carbon, coke or varnish buildup
· Less emissions produced
· Better fuel economy of 5% plus as a result of a shortened ignition delay and surface cleanliness and lubricity

Cetane:

This colorless, liquid hydrocarbon holds excellent ignition qualities, and is a term closely associated with diesel operation in cold weather. Fuels are compared to Cetane to determine their ignition quality. Higher Cetane values improve the engine’s cold-starting performance and reduce white smoke. When diesel fuel first enters the combustion chamber, there is a lag time until the fuel ignites, but that lag time can be shortened with a high Cetane number.

Most electronic diesel engines require a Cetane rating of 45 or higher. In cold temperatures, a vehicle will respond to a high Cetane rating with better engine performance, better fuel economy, and better exhaust emissions.On the other hand, a low Cetane fuel (below 40) will cause white smoke, poor fuel economy, and the lack of power in cold weather. Minimally, 40 Cetane is desired, and can be found at most fueling stations, but premium diesel fuel (above 45 Cetane) will provide increased power and fuel economy. You will not find the Cetane number on fuel pumps, but can ask the attendant at your area fuel stations to determine which location carries premium fuel.

LUBRICITY:

In addition to providing energy, diesel fuel doubles as a lubricant for diesel injection equipment, such as rotary distributor pumps and injectors. Fuel must be capable of lubricating the system components in order to prolong the fuel system. Because of the diesel’s dual purpose, the viscosity or weight of the fuel is vital to its performance. In normal temperatures, higher viscosity fuels, such as Diesel Fuel Number Two, or DF2, will perform better than the thinner, lower-viscosity fuels in automotive diesel engines, which can be hard on the injectors. International’s Power Stroke Diesel engine’s electro-hydraulic fuel system design is much less vulnerable to lower lubricity fuel than mechanical systems. And this bodes well for the vehicle’s performance in cold weather.

A test called SL BOCLE, which can be performed at your local International dealership, will measure the fuel’s ability to lubricate and express the lubricity in grams of load. Many engine manufacturers require a minimum SL BOCLE rating of 3,100 grams, and that is the common rating found at diesel fuel stations, the higher the value, the better the lubricating ability, Lubri-silk diesel is 5,800 grams.

USAGE:

MotorSilk Diesel Fuel Additive may be blended to all diesel fuels. The additive is diluted 1000 to one in the final mix. Thus, one 454ml (16oz) bottle of MotorSilkTM Diesel Fuel Treatment is formulated to treat 454 litres (125 gallons) of diesel fuel or bio-diesel fuel. Refer to your Owner’s Manual to determine your vehicle’s fuel capacity and add an appropriates portion of the MotorSilkTM Diesel Fuel Treatment bottle with each fill-up, For larger gas tanks, use additional MotorSilkTM Gas treatments to maintain the proportions described above.

Remove the cap and seal from the MotorSilkTM Diesel Fuel Treatment bottle and carefully pour it into your vehicle’s diesel fuel filler tube in the appropriate amount as mentioned above.

NOTE: If you are unable or uncomfortable installing the MotorSilkTM products, most auto repair or Oil change shops will install the product for you.
