I used some additive that's suppose to boost cetane during the trip. BTW, the car is a 78. Any data for that year?

One thing to remember is in early '80's the fuel was 50 + cetane through out the US, now days it hard to find diesel with more then 42 cetane. What I'm saying is you max stress tested the engine and it held togather, hope nothing was over taxed in the engine. These are tough little cars and should serve your daughter well.
