2. Cetane improver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cetane_improver

   The cetane number is a key property of diesel fuel, as it measures its aptitude to self-ignite in the combustion chamber. [8] The auto ignition temperature of diesel fuel is around 220 °C (428 °F) at atmospheric pressure. Cetane improver additives are used to decrease this temperature and lead to quicker combustion, by increasing the cetane ...

   Nitromethane, or "nitro", is a high-performance racing fuel; Acetone is a vaporization additive, mainly used with methanol racing fuel; Butyl rubber (as polyisobutylene succinimide, detergent to prevent fouling of diesel fuel injectors) Ferrous picrate, used in diesel fuel to increase fuel conversion efficiency and reduce emissions

4. Winter diesel fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_diesel_fuel

   Winter diesel fuel (also known as winter diesel, alpine diesel, or winterised diesel) refers to diesel fuel enhanced to prevent it from gelling in cold weather conditions. In general it is achieved by treatment with additives that change the low temperature characteristics of the fuel.

5. Top Tier Detergent Gasoline - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Tier_Detergent_Gasoline

   The repair for this type of problem depends on the severity of the deposits. In milder cases, a mechanic may solve the problem by adding a can of fuel-injector cleaner into the gas tank. However, in some cases, the fuel injectors must be replaced. Deposits formed on the intake valves may be removed via walnut shell blasting.

6. Techron - Wikipedia

   Techron is a patented fuel additive developed by Chevron Corporation and sold in its fuel operations (including Texaco and Caltex).It contains a polyether amine-based detergent, which is purported to dissolve deposits in automotive engines and prevent them from building up.

7. Diesel exhaust fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_exhaust_fluid

   The injection rate of DEF into the exhaust depends on the specific after-treatment system, but is typically 2–6% of diesel consumption volume. This low dosing rate ensures long fluid refill intervals and minimizes the tank's size and intrusion into vehicle packaging space.
