I see a lot on here about the different additives but does anyone know who makes the PM22A for Ford? For sure Ford doesn't make it.

I sell it. Ford has kept the manufacturer of this product quiet. I would imagine there may be a patent involved.

I buy PM22a in the gallon container, however, they are really difficult to pour from without spilling. Does anyone know of a pour spout that would work for the OEM metal 1 gallon cans?

I agree. Pouring from those containers is messy. I decided to transfer the contents to an easier pour container.

Here is the link to the MSDS

Hydrotreated light petro distillate is basically kerosene. It shows it in a concentrate of 60 to 100 percent. So if you take away the other added chemicals it is basically about 98 percent kerosene. My 2 cents. I would never use tranny fluid or motor oil.

Daily Double,

I can't say for sure, but I always thought it was an interesting coincidence that Gold Eagle's "DieselPower!" line of diesel fuel additives seemed to hit the market about the same time that Ford started marketing and selling their own line of additives. Their additives even appear to come in identical bottles, so, if I was a betting man, I'd say that the Motorcraft PM22A "Cetane Booster and Performance Improver" is likely just a re-branded variation of Gold Eagle's "DieselPower!" Heavy Duty "Cetane Boost and Performance" Part No. 15224 Deprecated Browser Error
Keep in mind that while the Motorcraft additive may just be a re-branded Gold Eagle product, it's possible that it could have a different, proprietary formulation. Also, before Ford started selling their own diesel fuel additives they recommended Stanadyne's additives: http://www.stanadyne.com/docs/puba/Mb2046.pdf
another interesting comparison is: http://www.stanadyne.com/docs/puba/99625 PF poster.pdf

Hope it helps,
K.N.

Here is another thread on the subject

Who makes PM-22 for Motorcraft - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

My post #19 in that thread:
"1. What is the lubricity improvement factor for PM-22 and PM-23? (If I have fuel with HFRR = 570 WSD, how much
improvement should be expected with PM-22 or PM-23?)​
Gold Eagle says their refernence fuel is 520 and at the recommended does both these will reduce this down to 300-425."

Above is from Ford E-MAIL in NHTSA INRD-EA11003-50107P.pdf. There is a lot of information in that link; and it will not all put a smile on your face.

End of post #19......

Below is link to the "FORD 1-20-2012 APPENDIX G, NON-CONFIDENTIAL ENGINEERING REVIEW" on NHTSA website. Mostly a string of Ford internal E-Mail threads regarding lubricity and HPFP failure. They even intentionally introduce water to a 6.4's fuel system to follow the indicator lamp (and ultimate failure of the injection system).

open above and search for "Gold Eagle" or read the entire document

I always figured the stuff was Stanadyne.

It smells, looks and feels like the Ford stuff, Ford used to recommended Stanadyne before offering their "own" product and Stanadyne isn't new to working with the OEM. VW "strongly recommended" Stanadyne use in the earlier generation VW diesels like the ALH engine from 99-03.

It might not be the same but is sure seems like it to me.
