Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner
Note: Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner, part number 256-4968, is the only fuel conditioner/additive available to the end user that is tested and approved by Caterpillar for use in Caterpillar diesel engines.Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner is a proprietary metal and ash free formulation that has been extensively tested for use with distillate diesel fuels for use in Caterpillar diesel engines. Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner helps address many of the challenges that various fuels worldwide present in regards to fuel life/stability, engine startability, injector deposits, fuel system life, and long term engine performance.Note: Diesel fuel additives/conditioners may not improve markedly poor diesel fuel properties enough to make them acceptable for use.Note: For maximum overall benefits, ask your fuel supplier to add Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner at the recommended treat rate before fuel delivery, or you may add Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner at the recommended treat rate during the early weeks of fuel storage. Follow all applicable national, regional, and local laws, mandates, and regulations concerning the use of diesel fuel conditioners/additives.Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner is a proven high performance, multipurpose diesel fuel conditioner that is designed to improve:
Fuel economy (through fuel system cleanup)
Lubricity
Oxidative stability
Detergency/dispersancy
Moisture dispersancy
Corrosion protection
Cetane (typically 2-3 cetane numbers)Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner has been validated through lab and field tests to improve/reduce diesel fuel consumption and emissions for typical fleets through fuel system/injector cleanup, and to help maintain new engine performance by keeping fuel systems clean. Note that while fuel system/injector cleanup takes place over time, maintaining fuel system/injector cleanliness is an ongoing process.Data indicates that average fuel economy improvements across typical fleets may be in the 2-3+ percentage range. Note that improvements may vary based on factors such as engine model, age and condition of the engine, and application.Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner also reduces the formation of gums, resins, and sludge, and disperses insoluble gums. This can dramatically improve fuel storage life, reduce fuel related engine deposits and corrosion, and extend fuel filter life.Note: Use of Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner does not lessen the engine owner and/or fuel supplier responsibility to follow all industry standard maintenance practices for fuel storage and for fuel handling. Refer to the "General Fuel Information" article in this Special Publication for additional information. Additionally, use of Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner does NOT lessen the engine owner responsibility to use appropriate diesel fuel. Refer to the "Fuel Specifications" section in this Special Publication (Maintenance Section) for guidance.Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner is suitable for use with biodiesel/biodiesel blends that meet Caterpillar biodiesel recommendations and requirements. Note that not all fuel additives are suitable for use with biodiesel/biodiesel blends. Read and follow all applicable label usage instructions. Also, refer to this Special Publication, "Distillate Diesel Fuel" article, which includes Caterpillar biodiesel recommendations and requirements. Caterpillar strongly recommends the use of Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner with biodiesel and biodiesel blends.When used as directed, Cat Diesel Fuel Conditioner has proven to be compatible with existing and U.S. EPA 2007 on-highway certified diesel engine emission control
