to Atf or not to Atf that is the question... is it nobler to read what is said with an open mind or one that is closed and full of suspicion and doubt .
Both sides have merit in there opinion and examples set
but many run additives in the winter and seem to like them . Not many run additive free . Injectors that are taken in for refurbished after milllions of cycles usually are at the end of there life and are covered in crud due to normal use .
look at the packaging that many use for fuel additives and see the chemical and molecular similarities to compounds in ATF not identical to but similar . hydrogen and oxygen both burn but are different .
just like the religions of one man may be similar to another.... but different . there may be two camps here but only one goal the better understanding of the trucks we drive this thread and site has done that
I will test each and re post results in six weeks
using mechanical injectors on non inter cooled engines from Cummings b power plants stay tuned Larry and company
