Dennis, it was several months ago or so... Point is don't want folks to
think C oil is the solve all answer. Apparently the answer is once the
engine has gone through the brake-in period (1,000 miles in our case) use
what ever oil floats your boat.

Actually, there is still two systems for diesel: oxidizers and the urea.
My understanding is the former works similar in concept to gassers, but
has different material/layout, as both affected by the Z.D.D.P..

It is these oxidizers that will raise food prices, as Comfufornia 
requires all semis to have them, even if they don't have a license in the
state! Talk about violating interstate commerce and liberty! Know some
drivers going through just ignore and risk it, as retrofitting costs are
prohibitive, especially for the majority which are small businesses.What 
starts there goes to the other states. I am all for clean air, but give
the working class liberty and relief from the burden of the government!
In time the costs of the emission systems will go down and the older
trucks will be retired and replaced with cleaner versions in due time.


Thank you so very much!
