Overview of Additive Products
Racor offers a range of fuel additives for diesel and gasoline, including Diesel Conditioner Plus+, POWERSHOT+ Diesel Fuel Conditioner, Diesel Biocide, Diesel Winter Plus+, Diesel Performance Plus+, POWERSHOT+ Gasoline Conditioner, and Gasoline Conditioner Plus+. These products are designed to enhance fuel performance, improve engine efficiency, and protect against corrosion and deposits.

Diesel Additives

Diesel Conditioner Plus+: A multi-functional additive that improves cetane levels, reduces rust and corrosion, stabilizes fuel quality, and enhances engine performance. It is alcohol-free and suitable for use in all seasons.
POWERSHOT+ Diesel Fuel Conditioner: Contains detergents to clean fuel injectors and improve fuel lubricity, cetane levels, and low-temperature performance. It is compatible with biodiesel blends up to B20.
Diesel Biocide: Prevents microbial growth and corrosion in fuel systems, maintaining fuel stability and clarity. It is effective with all forms of biodiesel.
Diesel Winter Plus+: Enhances low-temperature operability by preventing fuel line and filter plugging. It contains a deicer and cetane improver.
Diesel Performance Plus+: Offers five times the cetane improvement of Diesel Conditioner Plus+, enhancing horsepower and fuel economy.

Gasoline Additives

POWERSHOT+ Gasoline Conditioner: Cleans fuel systems and prevents rust and corrosion. It is compatible with ethanol-blended fuels and improves fuel economy.
Gasoline Conditioner Plus+: A multifunctional additive that cleans and protects fuel systems, improving combustion and reducing emissions. It is compatible with various gasoline blends.

Biodiesel Challenges
Biodiesel presents unique challenges such as higher wax crystallization temperatures, injector deposits, foaming, and stability issues. Traditional cold flow additives may not be effective, and biodiesel can contain emulsified water leading to corrosion.

Ethanol Overview
Ethanol is a renewable fuel produced from feedstocks like corn and sugarcane. It is blended with gasoline and poses similar challenges to fuel systems as gasoline, requiring specialized additives.

Accessories and Ordering Information
Racor offers fuel filter funnels and additive display stands. Additives are available in various sizes, including 55-gallon drums for bulk orders. Part numbers and treat ratios are provided for ordering convenience.

Diesel Biodiesel Challenges All diesel fuels contain wax, and below a certain temperature, will undergo changes such as crystallization, gelling or viscosity increase. These changes reduce the ability of the fuel to flow and create filter plugging concerns, adversely affecting the operability of vehicles. With traditional diesel, operability concerns are understood. Today, with well established additive treatments, operability issues have become increasingly rare. But with biodiesel, there are some new challenges: • ax crystallization begins at higher W temperatures in biodiesel and biodiesel...

Diesel Diesel Biocide Racor Diesel Biocide is a multi-functional petroleum additive. It is used to help maintain color stability and clarity. Racor Diesel Biocide can be used to eliminate and/or prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi. The superior formulation controls bacteria, fungi, organic reactions, sludge formation, and also acts as a corrosion inhibitor. Diesel Winter Plus+ Racor Diesel Winter Plus+ is added to middle petroleum distillates such as No. 2 heating oil or diesel fuel to improve their low temperature operability as measured by pour point and cold filter plugging point. Racor...
