  • When this topic popped up, we were really interested in learning more about reducing regens and extending the life of a DPF. Kyle from Hot Shot’s Secret joins us to talk about real world studies they’ve done and data showing how to do both. And, it’s easier than you may think.

    I have been using Hotshots EDT. I have been testing it for almost a year and found that I actually dont see improved fuel economy. What I do see is more consistent mpg. I didn't purchase this product for mpg, I use it for the safety of the lubricity in the high pressure fuel pump. I have a 2019 Ram Cummins and 2015 Jetta TDI- the results have been similar between two completely different applications. During oil changes I use Hotshots diesel extreme. I am not marketing anything simply stating my results. My results have been positive.

      Do fill renewable diesel in California? The mileage goes up manly from how much clean up is needed. Did you use another product before and switched or what mileage did you. Start using first time ever?

    From what I've seen regarding number of regens is 3 times in a tank of diesel. With Hot Shots Diesel Extreme and Everyday Diesel Treatment, there is two regens in a full tank of diesel. MPG overall stayed about the same. I'll continue to use them. Just keeping it real 😎✌️

    Thank you for another informative interview. New to diesel you have exposed the land mines that can be monumentally expensive down the road. Your discussions talk about things never on my radar. My Duramax LZO 3.0L in my 2023 GMC was the reason I purchased my truck. I do care about cost savings and mpg but I care even more about not having huge repair bills down the road. I am doing everything I can every tank and every oil change but I’m sure that there is more to learn. Keep the great content streaming. I would love to hear y’all discuss my situation in depth from A-Z. First time diesel owner, from the gas world, brand new truck,misconceptions that with diesel it’s fill it and forget it. I use Hot Shot’s in my fuel and oil and will continue to gain every advantage at helping myself as well as my engines systems for the future.

    I run hotshots every tank for my daily 6.7 powerstroke and I can probably say it regens once every other month. When it does go into regen and I'm almost home I keep driving until it's done. 80k so far and only the cold side charge pipe has failed 😅

    Will definitely try your products. I've spent way too much cleaning injectors and DPF components only to find after 5000 miles that I burned 1/2 a gallon of 100% synthetic oil and it's like molasses. My fuel filters were also replaced prior to 5000 miles and they were disgusting. I agree in preventative maintenance and your products seem promising. It's good to see you guys are on top of it.

      2 big things were lubricity and the lesser known benefit was that it helped stabilize the fuel so deposits (carboxylic salts) didn’t fall out of suspension and create internal diesel injection deposit issues.

    • @danielhardwick4074
      @danielhardwick4074 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      LOL lovely question, but actually the issues isn’t with the OEMs. Both European and US manufacturers association agree that fuel lubricity should be able to wear a scar of 460. Yet, the US government standards for fuel lubricity are 520. In Europe, the Bosch failures are well under 5% because the fuel is at a 460 µm. If you give me your email, I will send you a presentation I did on the subject matter.

    I don't own a diesel anymore but I still drive a bit. I get a little nervous driving a truck with 500,000 miles(Freightliner ,Detroit 15 liter) . I got caught with the engine light coming on and it started down rating itself each time it was shut off. So 2oo miles from home, in a day cab, it wouldn't come off idle.
