From my meager understanding of all this Fredmburgess is correct. Many many state that once they switched to biofuels there cars improve dramatically when it comes to smoother idle and quieter running. The experts attribute this to the better lubricity of biofuels.
Second sulfer reduction in american diesel has been touched very little compared to european diesel. I dont hear squat from Europe about needing to imporve fuel lubricity of there older diesel rigs. Maybe Im not listening for it? Has anyone heard from europe bboards or friends if they are adding lubricants etc. to their fuel to replace the sulfer that is now of lower content in diesel fuels?
I also feel Fred is correct in that their are other products available now besides sulfer that are better for lubricity and better for the environment. Heck... just put a quart of off the shelf pure vegetable oil in your car. When you fill up. Im sure that is plenty extra lubricity compared to the sulfer reduction in diesel fuel.
