I have not had any problems with the ULSD in my 8V92 after many fill-ups. If I am offered the opportunity to go into a truck lane that still has the LSD, I will usually choose the LSD (Low Sulfur Diesel NOT the other kind) rather than the ULSD but I haven't been able to tell the difference between the two although the ULSD should, all other things being equal, give slightly fewer miles per gallon in an engine original designed for LSD.

I echo John's admonition, NEVER put LSD in an engine specifically designed for ULSD.

John, thanks for the well researched response. Much appreciated.
