Except for......

"You won't be sorry for using it...."

Maybe. I know a guy that runs a local diesel specialty place (Bosch Certified If you want to know) and they totally warn against Power Service..He said in older diesels (and some newer) the PS has agents that will attack the rubber parts of the IP. They recommend StanaDyne engine treatment. Does the same thing as Power Service. I have used both, power service (in one tank) then a tank of nothing, then stanadyne in one tank. Power service gives me about 2 MPG extra, stanadyne does about 2.5 - 3 MPG.

It's a little more $$, but still cheaper than rebuilding your IP.

Here is the shop I use. Stateline Diesel, Edwardsburg MI, 269-663-8571

Also, it isn't just them, several Indie truckers I know refuse to use Power Service as well.

Just my $.02
