Yes it does.
ALL diesel has at least a little bit of sulfur in it; sulfur is in all crude oil. They could remove all the sulfur from diesel, but a slight amount is left in because it lubricates the engine.
Low-sulfur diesel contains no more than 500 parts per million of sulfur. This fuel is legal to use in any engine made on or before December 31, 2006.
Ultra-low-sulfur diesel contains no more than 15 parts per million of sulfur. This fuel is required for all engines made after January 1, 2007, and you can use it in any diesel engine.

What is the amount Difference between high sulfur and low sulfur diesel?
There is not a clear cutoff point between "high and Low sulfur diesel". Ultra low sulfur diesel ULSD is what is currently required for on road use. ULSD can contain no more than 15 ppm sulfur (15 micrograms sulfur per gram of fuel or 0.0015 wt.%). Low sulfur diesel would contain more sulfur than ULSD and high sulfur diesel more than low sulfur diesel.
Does sulfur dissolve in alcohol?
It is "very slightly soluble" in alcohol. Seriously, though, elemental sulfur doesn't really like to dissolve in anything.
What is the number of the carbon hydrogen and sulfur atoms in a diesel molecule?
Pure diesel does not contain any sulfur atoms. The molecular statement for Diesel is C12H23, which means each molecule of diesel contains 12 Carbon atoms and 23 Hydrogen atoms. Sulfur shows up in diesel because it is in the crude oil originally and the cost of refining out all the sulfur from the diesel is very expensive.
Sulfur content of euro 4 diesel?
max 50 ppm
In which liquid does sulfur dissolve?
Sulphur dissolves in a liquid called carbon disulphide.

What does diesel look like contaminated with sulfur?
It looks like diesel. All diesel has sulfur in it, because all crude oil has sulfur in it. The sulfur lubricates the engine, so they leave it in there on purpose.
What is the disadvantage of low sulfur Diesel fuel for old diesel?
It has low sulfur, use additive
Does sulfur dissolve in alcohol?
It is "very slightly soluble" in alcohol. Seriously, though, elemental sulfur doesn't really like to dissolve in anything.
What is the difference between red diesel and normal diesel?
sulfur content regular ultra low sulfur diesel is 15ppm. off road, no tax, red diesel what ever you want to call it has 3000ppm
Can you use high sulfur in 2008 Ford truck?
you can but it will cause damage to the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and other emission componets. It would take about $8,000.00 to replace parts. As far as I know all diesel that is sold now is ULSD.per for shop manuelNOTICE: For areas where ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (15 ppm sulfur maximum) is required, use only ultra low sulfur diesel fuel in diesel vehicles equipped with an Oxidation Catalytic Converter (OC) and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). In a diesel vehicle that is continually misfueled by using low sulfur (16-500 ppm) or high sulfur (500 ppm or greater) diesel fuel, the sulfur can effectively poison the catalyst. Continuous use of low sulfur or high sulfur can destroy the catalyst and render the catalyst useless.
What is the allowable sulfur content in diesel for e common rail direct injection diesel engine?
run what is recommended. but higher sulfur will not hurt it at all current diesel fuel is 50ppm
Do Pemex stations in the Baja have ulta low sulfur diesel?
Pemex stations in the Baja Sur have ultra low sulfur diesel, also known as ULSD. Pemex stations also offer low sulfur diesel, also known as LSD.
Can you use 500ppm diesel in a common rail engine?
Pre 2007 diesel engines can run on 500 ppm diesel fuel. 2007 and later diesel engines that call for ultra low sulfur diesel fuel should not. These systems use EGR and the extra sulfur in the diesel creates sulfuric acid by nature and will then be reintroduced into the combustion process. Even later diesel engines are using diesel particulate filters that are sensitive to the extra sulfur. Bottom line, if your engine says that it is rated for ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (15ppm) use it.
Why not to use water to make solution of sulfur?
Sulfur will not dissolve in water, it can in carbon disulfide (CS2)
What element iron or sulfur was affected by the carbon disulfide?
Non are affected, only sulfur will dissolve in it, not iron.
How do you separate the mixture of sulfur from charcoal?
by solvent extraction. sulfur can be dissolve in carbon di sulphide solution.
