Look Inside a Diesel Engine with Hot Shot's Secret

Feb. 22, 2018
In this video, Lubrication Specialties explains the benefits of Hot Shot's Secret Stiction Eliminator.
Mile after mile, the injectors in your diesel power your performance on the road. The injectors are under extreme pressure, up to 35,000 PSI, which efficiently atomizes fuel, providing a cleaner burn for more power. But high pressure leads to high temperatures, which burns the oil inside your injector. The oil changes into a gummy, sticky residue coating the internals and creating friction. That sticky friction is called "stiction". Your injectors with stiction can't deliver optimum performance. First a decrease in turbo boost, then loss of power and hard starts. Your oil pressure drops; you experience hesitation, idling, and excessive black smoke. Your lifetime fuel mileage decreases. Severe cases of stiction are often misdiagnosed as "failed" injectors.
