HOW TO USE

Recommended Frequency: Add to diesel fuel before wax starts to form (near freezing temperatures). Use at every fill-up. Use the performance dose for additional cetane boost, fuel lubricity, and a lower pour point. Performance dose is required when temperatures are below 0°F.

WHY IT WORKS

Fuel treated with EDT+ Winter Defense becomes a “PREMIUM” diesel fuel. The cetane improver in EDT+ consists of special nitrates which are pro-oxidants, and which speed up the oxidative process of fuels during combustion, giving more power and improved mileage. EDT+ provides significantly increased ignition efficiency with all diesel fuels. In addition, EDT+ prevents gum and sludge formation. Corrosion is prevented by an inhibitor which produces a protective non-deposit-forming film on metal surfaces in the fuel system and which neutralizes corrosive acids formed during combustion. An important component of EDT+ is a special demulsifier which disperses condensed moisture. Condensed water in fuels is a major cause of rust, icing in cold weather and the growth of microorganisms in warm weather. Operation of diesel engines is noticeably improved when corrosion and growth of bacteria are prevented. EDT+ contains an exclusive polar lubricity additive to prevent wear without altering fuel viscosity.

THE SCIENCE

EDT+ is extremely effective in middle distillate fuels to improve combustion and ignition efficiency, enhance fuel economy and maintain fuel in a clean, stabilized condition. The sulfur content of this diesel fuel additive does not exceed 15 ppm

The reason for better performance with EDT+ is that cetane improvement in the fuel gives 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 with EDT+ eliminates potential damage to piston rings and rod bearings

Power and fuel economy are increased as fuel burns more evenly and cleanly. Misfiring is controlled. When ignition improves, emissions are reduced, and noise levels are lowered. Controlling the pressure build-up allows more complete burning of the refractive molecules in the fuel, which steal power and produce deposits and wear.

Benefits

EDT+ WINTER DEFENSE prevents paraffin wax precipitation during cold weather, by minimizing the size of the wax crystals and allowing the fuel to travel through the fuel filter at temperatures 20°F below the cloud point (wax solidification point) of the diesel fuel.

WHY DOES DIESEL FUEL GEL?

Diesel fuel, especially the common #2 Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel sold by service stations, will ‘gel’ if the paraffin in the diesel fuel starts to crystallize and freeze. With long enough exposure to cold temperatures, it produces a solid wax-like substance that can clog the entire fuel system. The fuel solidifies and loses its ability to flow. Diesel fuel gelling is similar to how a wax candle remains solid until lit, at which point the wax progressively becomes a free-flowing liquid. Then, as it cools, the wax becomes solid again.

AT WHAT TEMPERATURE DOES DIESEL FUEL GEL?

Diesel fuel gels when temperatures fall below 10 to 15 degrees Fahrenheit or -12 degrees Celcius. If engine complications occur at temperatures above 10 to 15 degrees Fahrenheit or -12 to -9 degrees Celcius, the issue is likely due to ice rather than gel. However, gelling can occur at temperatures as high as 20 degrees Fahrenheit if the engine runs on low-quality fuel.

FUEL ADDITIVES PREVENT DIESEL GELLING

Newer fuel additives serve as easy, low-cost and hassle-free solutions to prevent fuel gelling. With the right fuel additive, you can avoid and solve engine complications without making expensive repairs. Using only the highest-quality fuel additives is essential to protect your vehicle effectively.

Additives provide temperature coverage to help prevent your diesel fuel’s wax from thickening, but you should choose an additive that also improves your fuel’s water dispersion, lubricity and cetane to ensure it’s successful. Many preventive offerings are available, with some top choices immediately available such as EDT+ Winter Defense and Diesel Winter Anti-Gel promoting coverage down to -40 degrees Fahrenheit. Diesel Winter Anti-Gel lowers your fuel’s cold filter plugging point (CFPP) to prevent your fuel lines and filters from clogging.

Real results from real people

“The Hot Shot products work just like Hot Shot says they do — even better than I would have expected. I have over 35 years’ experience in diesel truck maintenance as a mechanic, and for engine life longevity and minimizing the odds of problems, the Hot Shot program is part of my regular preventative maintenance.”
