Anyone tried this Diesel Secret stuff?

If this is legit and it looks so... I am finally taking that cross-country road trip this summer.

Diesel Secret Energy - Alternative Biofuel Biodiesel

It sounds like it does work, but before I spend a dime on some hair-brain idea I want to know of a forum member and their experiences. Not every diesel is exactly the same so if they say its perfect for a VW I am thinking its possible it might not work with Cummins injectors. Under their testimonials someone said they had a Cummins running on it for over 70K miles with no problems... what which cummins is that, and is the testimonial even true?

PLEASE, gimmie some feedback. Look at my sig for my engine type.... I am so close to pulling the trigger on this one.

Can`t help ya much. I bought the basic kit and while I was waiting for it to arrive, I did a lot of reading and found this...Things you can do to get maximum engine life from a VO converted diesel. - Topic Powered by eve community. Really got cold feet and decided to keep on paying for fuel that won`t hurt my engine. May be fine, but my finances won`t allow for speculation. Read all you can find. There is a lot of stuff out there.

It's not perfect for a VW. This Diesel Secret stuff has been beat to a bloody pulp at Fred's TDI Page. TDIClub.com. VW TDI Enthusiast Community. I believe there is now a ban on even mentioning it on that forum. You know what they say... "If it sounds too good to be true..." I'd NEVER put in my Volkswagen or in my Cummins.

I wonder why???

You got to add gasoline, Xylene, mothballs, and a host of other solvents to make it work...

Here is another thread about it...

Its costing me between 48 and 65 cents a gallon to make, depending on how much I get the gas and others for.
Thats scary... DSE (Xylene and Napthalene) Gasoline, Kerosene, Cetane Booster (More Xylene, Naptha, Napthalene, Mineral Spirits)... Everything your dumping in is nothing but solvents and degreasers...
