Venezuelan diesel typically has higher sulfur content compared to low-sulfur diesel standards set by international regulations. However, the country's refining capacity and practices can vary, leading to fluctuations in sulfur levels. While efforts have been made to produce lower-sulfur fuels, much of the diesel available may not consistently meet low-sulfur specifications. Consequently, it's essential to check specific product details for accurate sulfur content.
low sulphur diesel will have no effect whatever. new lubricants have been added to fuel to compensate for the reduction of the sulphur
The diesel particulate filter will be damaged.The diesel particulate filter will be damaged.
It should be diesel fuel in a diesel car - in the US and Europe, that will be #2 Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel.

Low sulphur diesel is more than likely to blame, older pumps espically rotary pumps are prone to the new diesel with low sulphur levels, will need to be removed and rekitted, the sulphur is a lubricant in diesel, best to use some ATF bout 200ml with every tank once pump is overhauled
Well, right now everything is pretty much Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel, so that's what you'd use. If you're in a place where Low Sulphur diesel is still available, that'll work fine for the 8.3.
Diesel fuel is the only diesel fuel. Either Low Sulphur or Ultra Low Sulphur, depending on the emissions regulations of the country you're in. If your vehicle has an aftertreatment system, which can consist of just a DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter), or a DPF and SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) system which uses DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid), you can only run Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel in it, or you'll clog that DPF up within the hour, your engine will derate, and you won't be going anywhere.
It's similar to #1 Low Sulphur Diesel.
13.50 per Imperial Gallon Adnoc Quality, Low Sulphur
They can use the red dyed diesel, or they can use regular Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel #2 which is used for highway vehicles. ULSD can be used.
Yes, ESPECIALLY in a newer truck designed to run on Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel, and especially if it had a Diesel Particulate Filter.
Sulphur levels. Euro 5 is ultra low sulphur, and formulated for engines which have a Diesel Particulate Filter. If you use Euro 3 diesel in one of these vehicles, it will clog the DPF within an hour and render the vehicle inoperable.
