Lubrication Engineers Additive

[greasezerk]

Went to fuel up my Dodge today. Pulled up to the pump and opened my toolbox to grab a bottle of additive. I had a 1/2 bottle of Ams diesel fuel additive. The high temp here has been below 20 degrees for 3 days and the low has been 0 with a 8 below 0 windchill. The ams additive was still in liquid form like it should be. I had a really pushy Lubrication Engineers salesman try and try to sell me a few of their superior products such as grease for 8 bucks a tube and i had to buy a whole case to get that price. He kept knocking Amsoil and how their products are inferior, not as good as his product hype. Well he gave me a bottle of their L.E. Diesel Fuel Improver so i could try it and be impressed with how well it would clean my injectors and blah blah blah. Well i had 1/2 of the bottle left and it was gelled up super thick and nearly frozen. Did a side by side comparisson with ams and it was like the Mobil 1 commercial comparing conventional and synthetic oils at below freezing temps. This stuff says it "makes starting easier in all weather" This stuff does not work for me. I have had better results with power service and howes. Im gonna call their home office tomorrow and poke a finger in their ribs. I think i will keep the contents in the bottle so if i ever see that salesman again............

Some of the diesel fuel additives will cloud and gel in extreme cold weather, even though they will prevent gelling. I had this happen to a bottle of Standyne a couple of years ago. I called the company and they explaind that when it was mixed with the fuel, it did in fact help prevent gelling. But in it's virgin state in the bottle, below freezing it will cloud over and in fact gel if the temps got low enough.
Not an expert in this area, just relaying what I was told by another company.
