LX4 Lubricity Extreme is most effective when used with every fill up and is 100% compatible with other Hot Shot’s Secret fuel additives, including DIESEL EXTREME, EVERYDAY DIESEL TREATMENT and GASOLINE EXTREME. Follow recommended treat rates.
*Store above 32° F. If frozen, thaw, mix thoroughly, and use as directed. Although LX4 diesel lubricity additive does freeze at high temperatures, when mixed with diesel fuel, it does not affect the pour point, cold filter plugging point, or cloud point of the fuel.
TREAT RATIO
For pump diesel, treat rate is 1 ounce per 10 gallons to meet and exceed the EMA recommended 460 micron wear scar.
(For VP Racing Torq DX, treat rate is 1 ounce per 2 gallons to achieve a 461.5 micron wear scar.)
When the fuel our vehicles and equipment run lacks the proper lubrication, it can lead to catastrophic failures and expensive repairs. Fuel pumps and injectors are the most vulnerable when there is a lack of lubricity. Excess wear takes place, which can lead to mechanical failures and debris, such as metal shavings, being pushed through the fuel system. Hot Shot’s Secret LX4 Lubricity Extreme remedies the issues associated with low lubricity fuel by increasing lubricity and providing additional protection for all fuel systems.
Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) has caused many issues and concerns for the owners of diesel powered vehicles. The process of removing the sulfur from diesel fuel also removes oxygen and nitrogen, all of which helped with the lubricity of the fuel. The lack of lubricity in the fuel causes all of the moving parts inside your fuel system to suffer, especially fuel pumps and injectors. The lack of lubricity causes excessive wear and eventually leads to failure. Hot Shot’s Secret LX4 Lubricity Extreme safely adds additional oxygen back into the fuel, which is not harmful to the environment. Lubricity is enhanced and the wear scar is reduced by up to 56% in the ASTM D-6079 method in un-additized ULSD fuel, exceeding the lubricity recommendation by the US Government and Engine Manufacturers Association. The use of LX4 Lubricity Extreme in your fuel system provides additional protection and leads to a longer life of your fuel system components, saving you from catastrophic and expensive failures.

Keeping your fuel lubricated is essential to maintaining your vehicle’s fuel systems and engine. Review the answers to these commonly asked questions below to discover what Hot Shot’s Secret’s diesel fuel lubricity additive can do for you.
How does LX4 improve diesel lubricity
Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) has caused many issues and concerns for the owners of diesel powered vehicles. The process of removing the sulfur from diesel fuel also removes oxygen and nitrogen, all of which helped with the lubricity of the fuel. The lack of lubricity in the fuel causes all of the moving parts inside your fuel system to suffer, especially fuel pumps and injectors. The lack of lubricity causes excessive wear and eventually leads to failure.
Hot Shot’s Secret LX4 Lubricity Extreme safely adds additional oxygen back into the fuel, which is not harmful to the environment. Lubricity is enhanced and the wear scar is reduced by up to 56% in the ASTM D-6079 method in un-additized ULSD fuel, exceeding the lubricity recommendation by the US Government and Engine Manufacturers Association.
What Are Lubricity Additives?
Lubricity additives reduce wear on the fuel system including pumps and injectors. You need fuel lubricity for your engine to operate correctly and without breaking down. Lubricity additives return oxygen to the fuel, allowing it to go back to operating as intended.
Does Diesel Fuel Have Lubricant?
Diesel fuel has lubricant. However, removing sulfur from diesel fuel depletes it of oxygen and nitrogen. Both of these aid in lubrication, meaning wear and tear increases significantly when they are removed. An additive like LX4 Lubricity Extreme can restore the lubrication of diesel fuel.
Which Diesel Fuel Additive Has the Most Lubricity?
Hot Shot’s Secret ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) additive, LX4 Lubricity Extreme, has the most lubricity available today. If you want an additive that performs at the highest level and adds the most lubricity back into your fuel, you should try LX4 Lubricity Extreme.
What Is Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel?
Ultra-low sulfur diesel burns cleaner than previous types of diesel. Newer vehicles and machines are required to use ULSD. It was created for better emissions from the diesel combution process. Since removing the sulfur takes away some of the lubricity, you need an additive to restore it.
What Is the Best Additive for Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel?
Our LX4 Lubricity Extreme additive is the best for ULSD fuel. Hot Shot’s Secret uses a specialized formula to increase lubrication in your fuel without harming the environment. Our additive also decreases the amount of wear on your machine’s fuel system.

Question
Craig Wallin –
Can LX4 Lubricity Extreme be used with EDT to increase lubricity? Or does EDT provide enough protection alone?

Levi –
EDT now contains enough LX4 to meet the Engine Manufacturers recommendation for a 460 micron in the ASTM-D6709 test for diesel fuel lubricity.
(However, for ultimate protection, use the performance dose of EDT along with the recommended treat rate of LX4.) Hope that helps!

Great product and customer service.

LX 4 is something I add now to every tankful of diesel in my RAM 3500 Cummins diesel work truck. I bought this vehicle new then discovered the problems associated with both the available “dry” pump diesel that lacks lubrication and that RAM knowingly equipped 2019 & 2020 Diesel HD trucks with a “known to fail” fuel injection pump, and refuses to recall the vehicles the Bosch CP 4 pump is a time bomb… So, since brand new Ive been adding lubrication to the diesel at every fill up. So far I notice that the engine runs very smooth and even though it is a “Dually” truck I get 21-23 mpg when not towing and on flat stretches of highway, which is amazing. I have a 51 gallon tank and my range at fill up is over 800 miles per tank thanks to using this product LX4 from HotShots Secret.

Recently started using this in my 2 stroke Detroit 6V92 Silver after seeing many of my fellow RV’s using it. Great way to add lubricity and get a piece of mind that the engine is safer. My first order had leaked and they replaced it with hesitation. Unheard of Customer Service these days!
