Hammerdown to TDV8 engines

Hi, I read something about Hammerdown diesel additive mixed in the diesel engine for a clean and soot free engine. Has anyone here on this forum tried this out and the results and experiences with this product? Based on what I have read about this, this must be the successful solution for TDV8 engines' problems with leaks and soot that cause EGR problems and turbo owners. Feedback, experience and opinions are valued. See link. http://www.lvpetroinc.com/dft1500.htm[/b] Range Rover L322 TDV8 07

All looks a bit out of date to me (C) 1997 site built with FrontPage4, links to distributors (Int.) don't work, google doesn't turn them up, mostly heavy metal references Wink Question

Oh, need to remove the [/b] from your link, otherwise it doesn't work .
Experience is the only genuine knowledge, but as time passes, I have forgotten more than I can remember Wink

DFT #1500

Diesel Fuel Conditioner

DFT #1500 "Hammerdown" is a multi-purpose diesel fuel conditioner*specifically designed to correct fuel related problems associated with the diesel engine. It is a unique blend of petrochemicals formulated specifically for today's diesel fuels. It is designed to maximize fuel performance while minimizing fuel problems. Since 1977, DFT #1500 has proved itself worldwide, both on land and in harsh marine environments.
DFT #1500 makes all fuels for diesel engines burn more efficiently, producing more power, while reducing CO, NOx and particulate (smoke) emissions. It removes and prevents hard carbon formation, a prime cause of reduced power and engine wear. It prevents the growth of bacteria and fungi that contaminate diesel fuels, controls gelling to 0 degrees F, stabilizes fuel, disperses water and sludge, and protects fuel systems and engine components from corrosion. DFT #1500 also improves the lubricity of fuels - a particularly important benefit when using low sulfur fuels, whose lubricity is often less than engine requirements.

Users routinely report that their diesel engine runs noticeably smoother and engine smoke stops after adding DFT #1500 to their fuel. They say that engine power is restored to "as new" levels. They report average reductions of 10% in fuel consumption and of 15 to 25% in maintenance costs. Independent tests confirm these claims.

DFT #1500 "Hammerdown" is totally compatible with all engines, filters, and fuel systems. It is nontoxic and noncaustic, contains no metals or alcohols, and requires no special handling, special storage, or disposal. It is gauranteed to contain no chemicals capable of harming any engine parts.

DFT #1500 is E.P.A. registered, U.S. Coast Guard approved, and certified for national defense fuels use.

* FUEL CONDITIONERS are multi-purpose organic compounds designed to improve fuel performance. They should prevent bacterial growth, dissipate water, prevent fuel system corrosion, dissolve gums, sludges & varnish, lubricate fuel system components, prevent carbon build-up, reduce emissions, restore engine power, and be compatible with all engine parts.

*FUEL ADDITIVES are organic, inorganic, or synthetic compounds designed to treat one fuel problem. Typically they contain alcohol, mineral spirits, boron compounds, and/or metal compounds.

Effects of DFT #1500 on Microbiological Growth
Microbiological growth and infestations have become a major problem to diesel users. Algae/bacteria can have many adverse effects on diesel engines: jeopardize an engine's ability to function and can damage engines and fuel systems. Operational and maintenance problems attributed directly to microbiological growth or infestations include:
Clogged fuel lines and filters
Low power
Poor fuel economy
Excessive engine smoking
Blockage of fuel gauges and consequently pumping and metering problems
Tank sealant degradation
Pitting and corrosion of metal surfaces, leading to leaky fuel lines and storage tanks
Higher level of hydrocarbons in exhaust-stack emissions
Formation of slime and sludge in fuel tanks
De-stabilization of fuel

The need for an efficient fuel treatment to prevent the growth of microorganisms in diesel fuel is a recognized fact. A total diesel fuel conditioner will prevent the growth of Bacteria/Algae in diesel fuel. Biocides will disinfect contaminated fuel, but they will not prevent the fuel from becoming re-contaminated, nor will they restore the quality of the fuel. A total fuel conditioner is needed, a fuel conditioner will remove the sludge and slime from a fuel system, remove water from a fuel system (the environment in which microorganisms live), stabilize the fuel, increase the efficiency of the fuel, improve fuel combustion to produce more power, and reduce emissions.

DFT #1500 "Hammerdown" Diesel Fuel Conditioner is a total fuel conditioner and the solution to microbial infestation and growth. DFT #1500 has over 20 years of documented history in preventing microbiological infestations. DFT #1500 is E.P.A. registered, U.S.C.G. approved, and certified for National Defense fuels use. DFT #1500 removes microorganisms from the fuel and prevents re-contamination of the fuel. Unlike the leading biocides, DFT #1500 is 100% organic. Therefore, it is nontoxic, noncaustic, nonhazardous, and completely safe for any engine or engine part. DFT #1500 does not require special handling procedures, special storage, or disposal. In addition to its documented ability to control and prevent algae/bacteria growth, DFT #1500 offers the user other benefits; removing and preventing power wasting deposits, increases fuel combustion and efficiency (without using combustion enhancers such as Amyl Nitrates), disperses water and sludge from fuel system, restoring engine power to design parameters, improving fuel lubricity, preventing bacteria and fungus growth, and reducing CO, NOx, and hydrocarbon emissions. These benefits make DFT #1500 the right choice for solving microbiological problems. Range Rover L322 TDV8 07
