How does Hot Shot’s Secret Diesel Extreme improve cetane?

May 21, 2014

will improve cetane in the fuel giving it a smoother, less erratic pressure buildup in the combustion chamber during the ignition delay period, which occurs between injection and ignition. Controlling this pressure buildup eliminates the potential damage to piston rings and rod bearings. Power and fuel economy is increased as fuel burns more evenly and cleanly. Misfiring is controlled. When ignition improves, emissions are reduced and noise levels are lowered. Control of the pressure buildup allows more complete burning of the refractive molecules in the fuel, which steal power and produce deposits and wear. Cetane improvement gives quicker starts and faster warm-up at cold temperatures. Hot Shot’s Secret Diesel Extreme will lower the minimum starting temperature of a diesel engine approximately 5°F.
