Advantages of using Performance Formula. 1)Restores/Increase Horsepower – detergents clean deposits in the injection system resulting in improved combustion, better acceleration, power, and torque. 2)Reduces Fuel Consumption – independent tests show an average of 4 percent improvement in MPG and gains up to 9.6 percent. 3)Cetane Improver – improves combustion resulting in better engine starting, smooth running, and reduced engine noise. 4)Meets all engine fuel system requirements – will not harm exhaust aftertreatment systems. 5)Reduces Emissions – reduces Smoke and Particulates. 6)Cleans and Protects – detergents and deposit modifiers help protect injection pumps, injectors, nozzles, etc. 7)Reduces Wear – lubricity improvers restore lubricity to ultra low sulfur and other low lubricity diesel fuels. 8)Stabilizes Fuel – keeps fuel fresher and protects against formations of gums caused by oxidation. 9)Cold Weather Protection – improves diesel pour point up to 40 F (22 C), and cold filter plug point by up to 25 F (13 C), depending on base fuel. 10)Corrosion Preventative – Corrosion inhibiters will protect the fuel system from rust and corrosion. 11)Helps Remove Water – special demulsifiers cause tiny water droplets to come out of suspension/emulsion, so the filter/separator can more effectively remove water. 12)Contains No Alcohol – avoids corrosion and accelerated wear. 13)Specially Formulated – for use with ultra low sulfur diesel fuel Can be used with Bio Diesel Fuel up to B20 (20 percent bio content approved ) – increased water separation shown in bio content up to B20.

I’ve been using Performance Formula One Shot for most of the 100,000 miles on my Chevy Duramax. I have been putting in an 8 oz. bottle every other gas tank filling. My truck engine runs like a top with no issues and plenty of power. There is no way I can attribute this performance to One Shot, but on the other hand I do believe it has kept the injectors clean and provided me with a smooth running engine.In fact, I just ordered another case. I wouldn’t be without it as injectors are very expensive to replace.

This was exactly what I was looking for. Just use one bottle per fill up and you don’t have to mess with refilling or measuring. I did received the wrong product at first, but I contacted the seller and he or she was quick to respond. They shipped out the correct product immediately and the rest is history. I WILL be buying this product again.Update: As of 2/21/2016 my 2015 Ram 2500 Cummins diesel has 10k miles on it. I have been using this product since the truck was brand new. I just drained both the front and rear fuel filters for the first time since buying the truck and 10k miles later there was absolutely no signs of water in the fuel. I can’t 100% attribute that to the Stanadyne alone, but I am pretty sure it is helping. I try and fill up at the same fuel station all the time as well to keep some consistency with the fuel I put in my truck.On another note, my buddy and I bought the same trucks weeks apart. He does not like to use additives he said and is averaging about 14.3 mpg. I on the other hand am averaging 17 city and 20 highway mpg with bigger and wider BFG all terrain tires on my truck. I will be buying another case of this stuff really soon!!!Update (10/24/18): Ordered another case and it arrived at my door in less than 24 hours… 👍👍

Let me start by saying I thought products like this that claim performance and MPG improvements were snake oil. I recently got a bad batch of diesel from my local gas station, and bought this to run through my Cummins 6.7L Engine in a 2014 RAM 2500 as a precaution. I was not expecting any MPG or performance gains at all. The only reason I chose this brand was that it came with 24 bottles and was priced reasonably. I was very surprised (as I said I’m a former skeptic) when my MPG went up from 16.3 to 17.6 MPG, doing exactly the same daily 100 mile return trip each day, 6 days a week (mileage based on dash ‘average MPG’ display before and after). I cant comment on performance as I don’t have access to a dyno. It feels like the truck has a little more pep, it also appears to run a little smoother than before – I have nothing to base these latter claims on other than my perception. The MPG is better, and I noticed a difference after the second fill up of 30 gallons with a bottle of this added with each fill up. Amazing. I’m convinced now, and will be using this at all fill-ups. I’m also going to start using it in my skid steer loader and hobby farm tractor.

I was looking for an all-in-one product that cleans & maintains injectors, has anti-gelling, lubricity and smoke reduction properties, but mostly for water removal. I would have thought that all diesel fuel additives would have all these properties since they’re all essential elements but surprisingly, only Stanadyne has everything I want. I use this product in all my diesel engines: Ford F-250 with 7.3L PowerStroke, Ram 2500 with 6.7L Cummins i6, and John Deere 4052 with Yanmar i4. During my research I discovered that Stanadyne was the ONLY product verified by Ford and John Deere. Since I started using Stanadyne I haven’t once had to empty any of the fuel separators on any of my engines, a fairly common task prior to using Stanadyne. I use the LegacyPro Translucent Graduated Pitcher, 8oz for mixing in just the right amount of product. I use this product along with PRI-D Fuel Stabilizer- For Diesel 32oz for long-term bulk storage. Hope this helps.

As of right now the product is working as advertised. It does seem as if my truck gets better fuel mileage using this additive. I had a code that kept popping up fuel related, now that no longer pops up. Although that message could be weather related we will see.

Flatbed truck seems to run better and has more power. Not sure about mpg but I’m guessing 1+ mpg improvement. I use it every other tank.

The return on investment is well worth it. Use a bottle with every fill and can see the difference vs. when not using it.

Product is great. Have used it in my 7.3L Excursion for years without any issues and have had increased performance. Bought the 24 pk because it will last me a year but only received 12 in the box. Currently waiting for a reply from the seller about the other 12 bottles. 4 stars because I love the product so much, 5 if the seller makes it right. Will update based on the results of the conversation.Update: 5 stars Love the performance my vehicle gains with this product. Excellent conversation with seller and easy to work with. Seller explained the issue and shipped rest of order same day.
