Description

Redline 85 Plus Diesel Fuel Additive (12oz)

Redline 85 Plus Diesel Fuel Additive is a diesel fuel catalyst. It combines detergency, lubricity, and faster combustion in one bottle. Mechanics favor it because it compensates for today’s low-sulfur diesel fuels. One bottle treats up to 100 gallons, so it’s an easy addition to your regular fuel-up routine.

How Redline 85 Plus Diesel Fuel Additive Works

Powerful high-temperature detergents in this additive clean fuel injectors and keep them clean. It also lubricates O-rings and seals, which extends injector pump life and reduces ring friction. A cetane booster improves ignition speed and combustion efficiency, so engines run with less detonation and less smoke. As a result, drivers often notice smoother running and better throttle response after just one treatment. Cleaner injectors also help maintain fuel economy over time, especially in older or high-mileage diesel engines.

  • Cleans and protects fuel injectors from carbon buildup
  • Lubricates injector pump components and O-rings
  • Boosts cetane rating for faster, more complete ignition
  • Reduces smoke and detonation for cleaner running

Compatibility and Compliance

Redline 85 Plus Diesel Fuel Additive works in all diesel engines and meets federal low-sulfur fuel requirements. Because diesel fuel specifications keep changing, Red Line regularly reformulates this additive rather than releasing entirely new products. This approach keeps it effective against the latest fuel blends without changing how you use it. It’s also compatible with modern common-rail and older mechanical injection systems alike.

This 12oz bottle suits a single tank treatment, while a Gallon size is available for fleets or frequent use. A winterized formula is also available, and it drops the fuel’s pour point by around 25°F for reliable cold-weather starts. Redline has built its reputation on performance lubricants and additives for decades. This diesel catalyst carries that same quality standard. Not sure which diesel additive suits your vehicle?

★★★★★ Good part, freight took an extra day
Hemi R · Gisborne · Example review

Rural delivery so it was two days not one. The part itself is mint and the oil was in the box which I did not expect.

★★★★★ Exactly as described
Sarah M · Dunedin · Example review

Price was the price, no surprises. Return pickup was already booked which made life easy.

★★★★★ We fit these for customers every month
Workshop customer · Christchurch · Example review

Order before 2pm, on the bench next morning. Preload sorted so we do not see them back. Saves us a hoist for a week every time.
