Diesel fuel lube additives 1-6 best to less best

Here are some - with #1 giving the best protection - but perhaps the not the best buy.
I have to post this in separate pieces since this forum keeps blocking it when I submit it in complete form.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this research was to determine the ability of multiple diesel fuel additives to
replace the vital lubricity component in ULSD (Ultra Low Sulfer Diesel) fuel.

THE RESULTS: These results are listed in the order of performance in the HFRR test. The baseline fuel used in
every test started at an HFRR score of 636. The score shown is the tested HFRR score of the
baseline fuel/additive blend.
Also included is the wear scar improvement provided by the additive as well as other claimed
benefits of the additive. Each additive is also categorized as a Multi-purpose additive,
Multi-purpose + anti-gel, Lubricity only, non-conventional, or as an additive capable of treating
both gasoline and diesel fuel. As a convenience to the reader there is also information on price per treated tank of diesel fuel
(using a 26 gallon tank), and dosage per 26 gallon tank provided as “ounces of additive per 26
gallon tank”.

So, fill your tank if you pass through Minnesota, do your engine a favor. :)

With a heavy heart I find I must change my fuel supplier. He is a life long friend, but only believes the Mobil /Exxon BS line and refuses to consider handling any biofuels. He never misses a chance to bash biofuels with some of the most outrageous negitive claims, This inspite of the fact that 95% of his customers are farmers who make their living(and pay their fuel bill) growing the crops that make Ethanol and biodiesel.
