I hope the additives the suppliers are adding to low sulphur diesel is working. It May be a good idea to keep a history/copies of fuel purchase recieipts should a claim arise.

The oil must be of certain type of your going to try it. Myself and a lot of others tend to run castrol 2T. That's my way of compensating for our low Sulfur rate anyway.

Yeah I use about 250ml ever 3rd tank. Used to do it every tank but probably isn't needed.
