Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel No. 1
Our Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel No. 1 is often
used as a blending component to winterize
the No. 2-D grade. This is the fuel you
should use if you live in an area with
abnormally low temperature conditions.
Compared to the No. 2-D grade, our Low
Sulfur Diesel No. 1 has a lower viscosity,
and generally provides higher cetane number
and better low-temperature operability for
your vehicle.
Low Sulfur
Diesel Fuel No. 2
Our Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel No. 2 was
formulated to be used by any diesel-fueled
vehicle on the road today – including yours.
Compared to the No. 1-D grade, our Low
Sulfur Diesel No. 2 provides higher fuel
economy, power, flash point, viscosity and
lubricity for your vehicle.
Diesel
Extra
Compared to the performance of our Low
Sulfur Diesel No. 2, Mobil Diesel Extra
contains a multifunctional additive package
that provides:
- A "Superior" rating
on Cummins L-10 detergency test
- 30% Improved
Lubricity
- Up to 2.5% Fuel
Economy Improvement
For You, Your
Vehicle And The World Around You
In order for your vehicle’s diesel engine to
start easily, the fuel must have a
sufficiently high cetane number. All of our
diesel fuels meet the minimum cetane number
requirement of 40 to ensure easy start-up
for your vehicle. Values above this level
haven’t proven to significantly improve your
engine’s performance.
Like most brands, our Low Sulfur Diesel Fuel
No. 2 provides protection against corrosion
and fuel pump and injector wear in your
vehicle. You could also get added protection
by using aftermarket lubricity additives,
and minimize injector deposits by using
aftermarket detergent additives; however,
Mobil Diesel Extra contains a
multifunctional additive package that
includes lubricity additives and detergents
to help protect your vehicle.
We’re also dedicated to developing diesel
fuels that are not just better for your
vehicle, but also your environment. While
the most important aspect leading to lower
emissions is engine design, fuel composition
does play an important role. To help reduce
emissions, the sulfur content of diesel
fuels is regulated by the federal government
and several states. And because a clean fuel
system provides better, more complete
combustion, a detergent-additized diesel
fuel like Mobil Diesel Extra can help
maintain the low-emissions performance of
your modern diesel engine. |
