Off Road Diesel for New diesel engines

Can the new Chevy Diesel engines run on off road fuel? Since they now run on ULSD. Does anyone have any experience with new (07-present) diesel running on off road fuel?

    Hello here is the reason. Those trucks 07 and later have dpf (diesel particulate filter). If you run a high sulphur feul you will clog the filter, and set a code. With an o6 and lower you should be ok, no dpf's you need to run 15~40 ci oil also, this is low ash.

    Check your glow plug fuse first. If its blown find out why.

    Does your volt meter show a voltage drop when the glow plug light comes on in the dash? Do you get an indicator on the dash with a cold engine. I doubt all your. Glow plugs failed. Do you have a check engine light? If so find out the code number, and what it relates to. Please let me know what you find, hope you solve your problem.
