Power service Fuel additive

Hello everyone, I was just wondering if Anyone has had any experience with this brand of additive , it claims it cleans out the DPF along with the injectors and a few other components.
TIA.

There’s gonna be a few different opinions but there are plenty of folks on here, including me, who use / have used Archoil with good results in regards dpf clean out and extending time between regens. Use the 6400d first then run the 6500 every tank, I run the hot dose @ 2oz/10 gal of fuel. I don’t use it when I tow my TT but my truck is a DD’r so I use it at every full up.

I run that brand in the grey bottle, Diesel Kleen. Recommended by Cummins and if you watch some comparison videos, it does well in lubricity and cetane. It's also readily available by me.

I have been using Archoil for a couple of years. Both the 6400 and 6500. Pull heavy a lot so DPF is likely not a problem and I have noticed a slight improvement in fuel mileage when towing.

There’s no potassium in it. Which, if you collect/analyze oil samples, will look like a head gasket problem. Check out the Oil Geek on YT.

Great info, thanks everyone for your insights.

I agree 1000% on the Archoil I order it off Amazon and it has made a big difference since I went to it from hopping around trying other brands like the Diesel Kleen.

First time seeing this from PS, I went to the web site to read about it, I was surprised that they recommend that you should use 12oz per tank (up to 40 gallons) monthly its priced at Walmart for $20.87 for 12 oz or $32.87 for 32 oz, think I will stay with Archoil 6500 @1 oz per 10 gallons

I read all the Power Service info on the new "Diesel Flush" product, and nowhere can I find any info that confirms it increases cetane. So I'll stick with the Archoil 6500 which seems to be working just fine.

I live 15 miles from a highway and have to drive 35 mph most of the way to get there then the speed limit is 65 mph for another 25 miles until I can go over 70 mph. Historically I have purchased nearly all my fuel at BP stations ($0.15 per gallon discount) and see a regen once per tank or so. However, I've started buying fuel at a local Exxon for convenience and noticed the gauge stayed at 0% DPF through an entire tank. I started adding Archoil two tanks ago and haven't had a regen yet though my driving habits have not changed.
Some time back when I was out West (can't remember which state it was) I purchased fuel at a Standard Oil station for my F350 DRW with 50 gallon tank. I noticed right away that mileage was up significantly.

My takeaway is that even top tier fuels are not created equal and it matters what you buy. For me, the combination of Exxon fuel and Archoil has had remarkable results.
