Note:
Metallic fuel additives can cause fuel system/
injector fouling and after treatment device fouling.
Perkins discourages the use of metallic fuel additives
in most applications. Metallic fuel additives should
only be used in applications, where their use is
specifically recommended by Perkins.
Note:
Diesel fuel additives or conditioners may not
improve markedly poor diesel fuel properties enough
to make them acceptable for use.
Note:
For best results, your fuel supplier should treat
the fuel when additives are needed.
Diesel Fuel Conditioner
In case a fuel conditioner is needed to improve
certain fuel properties, consult with your fuel supplier
or with a reputable provider.
