Which fuel to use is undoubtedly one of them, but many fleet owners may not fully realize how much a premium diesel fuel can increase overall efficiency and equipment longevity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Additives are the feature that separates premium from standard-grade diesel. These additives extend the life of both the fuel and the engine. What are the benefits of using premium diesel that help keep your vehicle on the road and in top-performing condition?<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">The benefits include:<\/h3>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><b>Keep your engine clean.<\/b>\u00a0Detergents do exactly what they sound like: keep your fuel and engine components clean. Detergents in your diesel reduce pesky buildup on engine parts. Clean parts mean improved fuel efficiency and greater horsepower.<\/li>\n<li><b>Prevent deposits.<\/b>\u00a0Injection stabilizers address fuel oxidation problems and prevent deposits in injectors, which can prevent costly, unwanted downtime and maintenance.<\/li>\n<li><b>Keep unwanted moisture out.<\/b>\u00a0Demulsifier separates water from the fuel, preventing unwanted moisture from being carried through the fuel system. This creates less wear on injectors and makes for fewer filter replacements.<\/li>\n<li><b>Quicker start-ups.\u00a0<\/b>Cetane measures a fuel\u2019s ignition delay\u2014or how quickly the air and fuel mixture combusts in your engine. Premium diesel has a higher cetane, which means a shorter delay and better ignition quality, and leads to faster start-ups and reduced wear on your batteries and starter, along with less pollution.<\/li>\n<li><b>Reduce friction.<\/b>\u00a0Lubrication in an engine helps reduce overall friction. Diesel lubricants specifically reduce the friction and wear of the fuel pump and injection components. These engine parts are under intense pressure, and friction-reducing agents provide 10-15% better protection against friction and wear on the fuel pump than a typical No. 2 diesel fuel does.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Your engine is cleaner and runs more efficiently when all the engine components work together. A premium diesel can help make this happen by delivering more power and better fuel economy than a regular No. 2. In fact, tests have shown a 4.5% increase in power and a 5% increase in fuel economy compared to a typical diesel fuel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In more than 14,000 hours of grueling real-world tests,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cenex.com\/fuels\/cenex-roadmaster-xl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-feathr-click-track=\"true\">Cenex Roadmaster XL<\/a>\u00a0prevented injection fouling and filter plugging while delivering premium power and fuel economy.
