Reading old posts on DFA's and Molakule's post on ATF ingredients reminded me of a long-ago 3 month experiment. I asked an OLD diesel mech what he intended to do about the then upcoming lowering of sulphur and was told "the easy solution is 1-3oz of Dextron ATF per tank" to keep the pump lubed. I did this for about 3mo, had no ill effects but couldn't document any positive results, so I went on to another OTC DFA. All comments welcomed! Tom
 
For a year now I have been using "Diesel Plus" (I sell it as Diesel Power because someone had registered the name here) and have eliminated all pump repairs, smoke, and improved mileage by 10 to 15%. Between my 5 diesel vehicles I had been averaging at least two repairs a year at $900+ each.
