(View MSDS)

CO-OP EP3000® Diesel Fuel is a premium product in the prairie marketplace, and is available exclusively from retail co-operatives receiving product supply from Consumers' Co-operative Refineries Ltd. in Regina.

EP3000® Diesel Fuel is available both in a winter grade (Oct. 1 to April 15) and in a summer grade (from April 1 to Oct.15). Through a modified refining process and the addition of a premium additive package, Co-op's EP3000® Diesel Fuel results in superior performance over a regular diesel fuel.

Superior performance results from:

  1. Extra Power
    -Higher cetane for quick starts, fast warmups, less smoke and smoother operation.
    -A higher density leads to a higher BTU content providing higher heat content, more power and better fuel economy.
    -Summer EP3000® is formulated to maintain the same summer high density for spring and fall while having cloud and pour points lower than the normal temperatures experienced in those months. This means maximum power and fuel economy is provided in the spring and fall with no risk of filter plugging and other cold weather operational problems.
  2. Efficiency Plus
    -the premium additive in EP3000® Diesel Fuel removes existing deposits and prevents deposit build up.
    -the Cummins L-10 test has been the industry standard to determine the ability of a fuel to remove injector deposits and prevent future deposit build up. CO-OP EP3000® has been tested at independent labs and given a superior rating in this test.
  3. Engine Protection
    -Winter EP3000® Diesel Fuel has the best in cloud points, preventing the formation of waxes (solids) or crystallization in the diesel fuel. Rust inhibitors and emulsifiers guard against fuel system corrosion caused by condensation.
    -the ultra-low sulphur content of EP3000® Diesel Fuel means it is easier on your engine and less harmful to our environment.
    -CO-OP EP3000® is formulated to provide excellent fuel lubricity. CO-OP EP3000® has been third party tested for lubricity in current testing procedures with clear passing results. Lubricity testing ensures there is no need for expensive after-market lubricity additives with CO-OP EP3000®.
