  • Adding ATF to your diesel fuel, one of the most controversial arguments of diesel additive. A waste of time or a forgotten savior. You decide lol

    I worked at a Dodge dealership back in mid to late 90’s and when we changed fuel filters on the 5.9 Cummins we always filled the filters up with atf. 👍🏼

    Its amazing how many people out there have no clue....I've got a 2001 7.tree with 800 thousand miles all original everything...still stroking to this day....I've added ATF,15W-40, PURE SYNTHETIC LUCAS, USED MOTOR OIL,2STROKE OIL, HYDRAULIC FLUID, Kerosene, been driving it for almost 24 years now......she will still outrun any dodge or Chevy....

    I love the content man! Your videos with the Black 6.7L Powerstroke helped me when my Dad sold his 2019 Ford F-250 Lariat 6.7L Powerstroke deleted and tuned for a 2021 Ford F-150 Ecoboost. He bought a 2022 Ford F-250 King Ranch 6.7L Powerstroke yesterday so I am relieved from my pain. Love the vids! Keep it up!

    Had an old friend years ago that ran big diesel trucks hauling grain , and he swore by atf in each tank of diesel. When I bought my first gen 5.9 back in the early 90's I used atf about every other tank full .I sold it with almost 400K miles and it NEVER gave me any issues and was still a great engine.

    I bought a '03 f350 diesel dually 4x ran horrible, I was laughed at by 2 shops that said scrap it. I found Spanky from Spankies mobile diesel in Boulder City, NV and after a complete exam, and tightening the FICM it ran great, however..still had hard starts, glow plug issues, Spanky said add ATF to tank, after a couple of tanks and 2 qts of atf, no more hard starts, smooth as new. I sware by using ATF.

    I ran ATF fluid in my Duramax. A lot more than many would suggest. I’d run up to 15gal in my 26gal tank. Any more and it would start to smoke white. Smoother engine for sure when running and no gelling. I never had an issue so I can’t say it’s a problem. Factory injectors made it to 250k miles.

      @@Kenny407 you could say I mixed it with diesel. On my ‘03 it had a 26gal fuel tank and I would pump in as much as 15gal of filtered ATF. I got all of my information from the guys running waste oil in 7.3 Powerstrokes. It really made the engine quiet and ran so smooth. No cold start issues and no mileage loss. Can’t say I gained mileage either. Hands down I’d do it again.
      It also helped that when I was doing it, the transmission shops were giving it away. Now that’s not so much the case. At least where I live.

    I'd recommend seafoam in the fuel instead, it's cleaned up my injectors before. About 4 oz per gallon is what I used. Considering you could have a lot of sludge buildup in the engine, you may want to run some marvel mystery oil at 20 percent of your oil volume for about 100-300 miles of really hard driving. Change the oil after that and see if it helps at all. It may take several flush outs but I've seen a forum where a cummins owner did this and it cured his rev problem. Other than that it's gotta be computer related

    Different injection system obviously, but I've run almost 100% used ATF in my P-pump 12 valve. Free fuel for me. Runs totally fine can't even tell the difference. I save all the ATF from transmission flushes at work. Drove a whole month for free one time.

    Oil and fuel do mix. Ol timers will tell you 30W is best 2 stroke mix. Mixes pretty damn good. ATF seems to incapsulate the debris in the fuel system. All I no is guys that tell me they put atf in every other tank have 300k plus miles on injectors and they are quite(healthy). I’ve do it in the Ol 7🌲. Kinda scared to do it in the 6.7. But I do think hot shots LX4 is prob the beat preventive maintenance on those trucks for the CP4🤷🏼

    It's definately injectors! The hang up your experiencing is fuel leaking into they cylinder that's is creating the engine to step down the way it is. This is bad for your cylinders because it causes extra heat generates in there. Yes, you do need new injectors. I'm speaking from experience on this one.
