My conclusion is most everyone is right on the magic juice they use because most all contain 30% 2-ethylhexyl nitrate
My plan is just to go ahead and find some other diesel heads and order a 55 gallon drum of the stuff at the fraction of the price of the OTC . Maybe change the ratio to 50%...
the wiki has it that http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/aldrich/293784?lang=en®ion=US&gclid=CMiR4Na-6coCFQIOaQodiS0FXQ works to boost cetane and if I was running a fleet of diesels or even was an OTR trucker I would buy it direct from the link for the quarter of the cost of the OTC...
ok I netsearched it to death most ALL cetane boosters contains 2-ethylhexal nitrate and or di-tert-butly peroxide plus some cleaner cleaner chemicals. This can be done at the plant and is done depending on the state or country you pump your diesel. So either way we have to suck it...
I can't find a real scientific engineering study on the effectiveness of cetane boosters such as "Diesel Kleen" "Sea Foam" and others.
I can find the product web sights and forum anecdotal accounts but no private lab results.
