Search "lubricity study" then go to some of the 24V Cummins forums. My 1SD had plastic gloves that appear to have been given to the original owner for the purpose of keeping oily diesel off the hands. Current ULSD is much dryer.


The VP44 on the Cummins needs lube but is a different animal than our pumps. 2-stroke helps the VP which costs1,000 and takes 4 he's to install. It also doesn't hurt injectors.

Power Service is too dry and hurts.
