    Hey Drew. Did you notice the odor of the fuel is different? Not sure what it smells like. But it doesn't have that strong petroleum smell.

    I was messing with a fuel line, got it all over my hands and some on the sleeve of my shirt. My wife would have complained immediately. Not a word. The smell even washed off on the first round

    I didn't notice, I even changed my fuel filter and drained water seperator the other day... Granted I don't seem to be able to smell a whole lot half the time anyway

    Smells like..... Not diesel. Still has a diesel smell, but nowhere near as strong. Smells more like something else that just can't describe LOL. I did notice last couple mornings that while it's idling to warm up it still has that typical diesel exhaust smell, but nowhere near as strong

    It smells more oily than Diesel. I mentioned the exhaust odor wasn't as strong a while ago. My local CarQuest sent in for a dealer kit.

    Quick update, after running the vehicles through the tests and adding a car to the equation as well. Initial results are well um.....

    garbage bloody snake oil.

    2012 cummins (stock) went from 15.6l per 100 km to 18.1l per 100 km.

    The service truck 09 ford with the 6.4l went from 25l per 100 km to over 30 per 100 km

    The 2013 duramax went from 17.4l per 100 km to 18.2l per 100 km

    Added the wife's truck 15.1l per 100 km to 16.6l per 100 km

    And my car 2000 ford focus

    Went from 10l per 100 km to 14.3l per 100 km

    Still waiting on lab tests to come back as I did not put a rush on it.

    All tests done from the same fuel station (flying J) in sherwood park, Alberta, Canada. And tests went as follows. First tank additive. Second and third tank no additive, fourth and fifth tank additive.
