You got it Ray. In my neck of the woods that has long been converted from farm country they don't even know what diesel antifreeze is and try to sell me the pink stuff - bad news.

So, I use the old fashon green stuff and put in the additive DCA-4, or the Ford equivlant as powerstroke pickup engin is an IH. The bottle even looks the same.

Non-wet sleve engines dont seem to have the problem. It's definatly a problem with the 312, 414, 436, 466 IH engines, Ford pickup and GM pickup diesels. I understand that it's not limited to a specific brand name.

If you think or even wonder if you have a wet sleve engine I'd put in the additive.
