Oops...repost!

Hi,

I picked up my 05 GMC CC SB D\A last week and filled up my first tank. I've read some are adding fuel additives during fill-ups. Given this is my first deezel I'm learning a lot on this board. I'm in in N. Cal so do I still need additives? Every fill-up? Any recommendations on which gas stations have the best fuel around here? Any other first timer tips is appreciated.

BTW - I'm having a blast with this truck. It is quick & gets excellent MPG for mini rig. I'll ask a few more questions re shocks soon.

Thanks.

if you want station advice you might want to be more specific with your location.

regarding the additive, i'd run either FPPF or primrose. i don't know where to get either of them up here. I mail order mine.

be sure to spend some time using the search function. you'll find more than you want to read for just about anything related to our trucks.

and welcome!

You can go to any truck stop in your area and find all kinds of additives.

Primrose or Stanadyne for me. stanadune is one of the recommended from GM as well as racor.

As NCMIC said, so here you go. Sorry no phone #'s.

I am in SoCal and use stanadyne additive. I also try and use only one brand of diesel fuel. Chevron ..

stanadyne is what I run in every tank.
