New low sulfur fuel diesel in older engines, Is it causing any problems? Are diesel was running low and the women filled it up at a station we dont normally go too and Im pretty sure we got a summer mix. Anyway it ran like crap for a while and I ran it low added seafoam, and changed the filter... Then filled it up at a good station with good fuel... It seems to be running better but still seems a little off. My dad was talking with a mechanic and he said the new low sulfur fuel is hard on the older diesel motors. He said some guys are dumping some two stroke mix in the fuel, or some ATF.... Has anyone heard of this fuel being hard on the motors or what to add to them... This was in a 99 7.3 with 185k on the ticker. Like i said its running okay now but still seems a little off... Hard to explain how its running...
