It's been a while since I looked at it but ULSD has been a problem for injection pumps and was a frequent topic on Cummins forums for a time. Discussions have slowed down possibly because the vehicles are older and there are fewer of them with most of the problems documented. I run 1 oz of 2-stroke/gallon of fuel in the Cummins and have 100,000 mi on the injection pump without problems. 2-stroke is easier to find than Stanadyne and less concentrated so easier to avoid over dosing.
