I am a newbie to diesel power. Ford 3000. In reading discussions I wonder about the following; 1. Is the problem with the new fuel that it does not provide adequate lubricity to injector pump seals etc.? 2. Would an injector pump that has been recenly rebuilt have seals that would not require addititives to the fuel? I.E. transmission fluid. 3. Are there other concerns using new fuel formulations in older diesel engines? 4. Are there any issues with valve train or cylinder walls/piston rings with new fuel? Thanks in advanced for any help. Im old but trainable. Sam
