    Hi All!

    Anyone use ULSD 15ppm sulfur fuel, and experience vapor lock after running awhile, shutting down, then attempting to restart?

    I don't use it so I don't have an answer for ya but, I was reading in the Fleet Truck magazine that Fed-Ex has been using it and has seen a 3.7% drop in fuel efficiency! That doesn't make me look forward to the day when we're all forced to use it.

    Tom,

    No problems here. Vapor lock is not something to be concerned with on an oil (DF) burning engine either;)
