Re: ULSD Fuel
[ QUOTE ]
I've heard of using tranny fluid to lubricate and also help clean the motor. How much would be appropriate to use? Anyone know?

The use of automatic transmission fluid will not only raise the sulfur content of the diesel fuel significant but it also can cause the formation of injector deposits and fuel system deposits as the fuel is burned. These deposits can cause poor spray patterns, incomplete combustion of the fuel and increased emissions.
You will probably notice a slight decrease in fuel milage since the BTU level of ULSD fuel is lower than the LSD.
Schaeffer's Diesel Treat ( http://www.schaefferoil.com/diesel_treat_2000.html) 1 gallon container treats 2000 gallons compared to power services' 3/4 gallon container which only treats 300 gallons.
