I have a 1999 7.3 and was thinking about tring this product called diesel secret and was wondering if it would damange the engine? Is this stuff safe to use in any 7.3 or any diesel engine? dieselsecret.com
Far as I can tell, it's a veggie-oil mix with (I think) kerosene and a few other allegedly secret additives to keep the veggie-oil from thickening at lower temps. I've thought about try this, at least in the summer months. Should work. Diesel's run great on veggie.

I ordered the basic starter kit, that comes with the manual and a bottle of additive, gonna try the first batch with some fresh veggie oil before I go for the used stuff. Should be here sometime this week. I'll keep you guys posted
Do a search on the Alternative Fuels sub forum down below. It's already been beat to death. Veg oil blending can work, as it does for me, but no Secret ingredient is needed.

I wouldnt waste your time with DSE. You can certainly run veggie without putting in kerosene, gas and their secret ingredient as I have been doing it. Their product is nothing more than something that keeps bacteria from growing, it can be bought at any auto parts store.

My experience with DSE has been that it clouds when cold and will settle out.
I have centrefuged it and still clouded and settled.
Next move is the old proven system
