Rislone said its new DPF Clean Diesel DPF Exhaust & Emissions System Cleaner cleans the fuel, exhaust, and emissions systems of diesel vehicles to restore power and performance, reduce regeneration cycles, extend diesel particulate filter life, save fuel, and turn off check engine lights.

According to a Rislone press release, the new product unclogs blocked DPFs and reduces the need for frequent highway driving to accelerate regeneration, making it a solution for diesel engines that are driven regularly at low speeds for short durations.

Heavy-Duty Cleaning

Rislone’s formula, the company said, features high-performing detergents and heavy-duty cleaning solvents to scrub away contaminants, soot, carbon build-up and oily residue from the fuel injectors, combustion chambers, turbo, EGR, diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC), and other components.

It claims its Diesel Regen Medic+ is an active DPF regeneration accelerator and cleaning fuel catalyst that will clear a blocked DPF.

“Because repairing an obstructed DPF or damaged emissions system costs thousands of dollars, customers have been asking us for an affordable solution,” says Clay Parks, vice president of development for Rislone. “DPF Clean is the most potent diesel product we’ve ever developed. Not only will it clear clogged DPFs, but regular use will also prevent excessive exhaust regeneration and help maintain optimal power, performance, and efficiency.”

The company said DPF Clean delivers the same benefits for diesel vehicles as Rislone’s CAT Complete Fuel, Exhaust and Emissions System Cleaner does for gasoline-powered vehicles. It will clear OBD-II PID Codes P242F, P2002, P2459, turn off the check engine light and/or clean a blocked DPF, enabling the vehicle to pass emissions/smog tests.

Diesel and Biodiesel

DPF Clean Diesel DPF, Exhaust & Emissions System Cleaner is proven effective in all diesel and biodiesel fuels, according to Rislone. It can be used in direct-injected, common rail, turbo direct-injected and turbocharged engines.

It was specifically designed for vehicles equipped with DOC catalytic converters, DPFs, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) devices or diesel exhaust fluid systems and will not void the manufacturer’s new vehicle warranty, according to the company.

Rislone offers a money-back guarantee.
