Valvoline (Now Not Cummins?) Injector Cleaner

[JDeMont]

Anyone know about this?



I just received my order from Geno's & the labeling is different. It now says for HD Engines (10 - 16 Liters) and the Cummins logo is absent. The product number on the quart bottle is VP202. Is this the same stuff as before w/ different packaging? Perhaps it can't be updated for ULSD & is not labeled for use in smaller than HD Diesel engines?



Regardless, I'm planning on using about 4 oz. per every 1/2 (approx) tank as a preventative for a lot of short trips, especially in the winter. Anyone see a problem or have a comment?



I initially went w/ Valvoline because it was linked to Cummins, but the packaging confusion on the previous 1 & 2 quart sizes (see my post of 8/21/2006) and now this HD labeling makes things too uncertain. Perhaps one of the Stanadyne products folks wax elequent about is a better choice. Dunno?



Thanks,

Try emailing or phoning Valvoline and asking them about the label change. I'd be interested to hear their explanation.

Count me as 3 with interest. I bought a couple of cases of the Cummins/Valvoline Diesel Injection cleaner/lube 3 years ago and have been adding 1 oz. /8 gal at every fill up. I 'think' that has contributed to my 110K of very trouble free running. Down to just a couple of bottles left. I have been looking at going to 2% Bio Diesel in place of the V/C cleaner/lube based on the previous additive link.
