Hot Shot’s Secret recently announced new distribution of EDT+ Winter Defense, a seven-in-one anti-gel fuel booster developed to keep diesel-powered vehicles operable and improve cold starts when temps start to drop below freezing.

The 16-ounce measurable squeeze bottle is now available at all locations of O’Reilly Auto Parts stores nationwide.

EDT+ Winter Defense offers all the benefits of Hot Shot’s Secret’s fuel additive, Everyday Diesel Treatment, and adds anti-gel and anti-icing properties to reduce fuel-line freeze-ups to keep diesel engines fully operational as low as minus 40 F, according to the company.  

The all-year diesel additive includes a powerful cetane booster, lubricity additive, injector cleaner and fuel-stabilizer chemicals to improve winter performance and protection of the fuel system, the company says.   

EDT+ Winter Defense is recommended for all diesel-powered vehicles, including cars, trucks, heavy-duty, semis, vans, buses, heavy-duty and ag equipment, and will not harm after-treatment systems, according to Hot Shot’s Secret, which recommends using before wax starts to form.

“In many parts of the country we have already seen heavy snowfall and cold temperatures,” Hot Shot’s Secret Brand Manager Josh Steinmetz said. “Diesel fuel is prone to wax deposits starting at 30 degrees. This product lowers the fuel-gelling point while improving the fuel combustibility, resulting in easier cold starts, reduced DPF regens and improved fuel economy. We’re very excited to be able to announce expanded distribution with O’Reilly Auto Parts before we face the brunt of the winter season.”

EDT+ Winter Defense is available in multiple sizes: 8, 16 and 32 ounces; 1, 5 and 55 gallons; and 275 gallons bulk at www.hotshotsecret.com.

      SMP Expands Electronic Throttle Body Program
      By Counterman
      link hidden, please login to view (SMP) announced an expansion of its industry-leading Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) program. The program includes nearly 250 part numbers with coverage for import and domestic vehicles. All Standard ETBs include the required gaskets for installation, and applications with high OE failure rates feature multiple design improvements. Standard said its engineers evaluate the original part, identify the OE issues, and correct those problems to deliver more durable ETBs. For instance, the ETBs on Chrysler/Pentastar 2.0L and 2.4L engines are widely known to fail prematurely. Standard engineers increased the face width on the gear to reduce stress on the gear teeth, improved the geometry of the gear teeth to make them stronger, and upgraded the actual gear to a higher-strength, heat-resistant material.

      link hidden, please login to viewrecently released ETBs for popular Volvo cars and SUVs through the 2022 model-year, as well as Jeep vehicles like the 2024-22 Grand Cherokee and 2024-18 Wrangler. Additional new coverage includes vehicles like the 2024-21 Ford F-150, 2019-15 Hyundai Sonata, and 2022-20 General Motors heavy-duty trucks. New related components include Accelerator Pedal Sensors for the 2023-21 Hyundai Elantra, 2023-22 Hyundai Tucson and 2023 Kia Sportage. In addition to the Electronic Throttle Body program, Standard said it also offers a wide array of related components, such as Accelerator Pedal Sensors, Throttle Position Sensors, Variable Intake Manifold Actuators, ETB Connectors and more.

      “While the market continues to benefit from use of our current line of coolants, many have asked when we’ll offer full coverage for all makes and models,” says Kaufman. “We listen carefully to our customers and, as a result, have greatly expanded our coverage to meet their needs. We also provide our customers with convenience and a simpler decision-making process by offering the right product for the right application, with exceptional corrosion protection, compatibility, and shelf life. Bottom line: AISIN coolants are trusted by automotive professionals.”
