: What's The Best Fuel Additive To Use? GREASE FIRE 05-05-2005, 01:23 PM any thoughts on this matter? I have been using "marvel mystery oil" and in the winter i use a "cetane boost" anti-gell additve as well, i am not sure who makes that stuff but it comes in the white bottle and is sold everywhere. Is this sufficient or are there other brands i should look into? thanks, Paul Bodysurfer 05-05-2005, 01:47 PM Thanks to the assist from 4kops and the product and testing kit he sent me, I will be testing E-ZOIL's Diesel Aid+ (the product he sent), RBP's High Performance Diesel Additive, POWERSERVICE's Diesel Fuel Supplement +Cetane Boost (the white bottle), and others (when I get them). Test will consist of: - water removal - actual useage in the truck - performance - mpg's - driving power If any vendors wish to assist me by sending a product (ex. Stanadyne, FPPF Total Power, FPPF 8+ Cetane, Primrose Power Master 405, etc.) please PM me for my address. If would be very helpful. Thank you. u2slow 05-06-2005, 12:15 AM I get the big jug of the Kleen-Flo additive... its what they have at my local Navistar dealer.

Texas Diesel Guy 05-06-2005, 05:20 PM I say go with the guys who make the pump if you want the best additive to protect it. Stanadyne Performance Formula (http://www.stanadyne.com/new/ppt/showfile.asp?id=1156) is the best on the market IMHO. cougarjohn 05-10-2005, 06:05 PM I put stablizer in my tanks if I am not driving our truck enough to use the fuel in 6 months (full tanks = 53 gallons). When we travel during hot weather then sometimes I will put in a little outboard 50:1 oil. I always carry some Dextron during the winter to use in the fuel if it starts gelling. chy46 05-10-2005, 07:19 PM TDG , Where do you find Stanadyne in Canada? Who carrys it ? Texas Diesel Guy 05-11-2005, 09:28 PM Local fuel shop is always your best bet. adws62 05-20-2005, 10:12 PM I Use Power Service but i'm not sure who makes it but the the same company also makes Diesel 911 if you ever gel up. It has cetane boost pluss cleaners and lubricants so it also works as an anti gel. c.r. 05-24-2005, 10:35 PM Okay here is a dumb question for those using Power Service additive. How much per 20 gal. tank ? Bodysurfer 05-24-2005, 10:48 PM The 32 oz bottle treats 100 gallons. So: 32oz/100 gals 16oz/50 gals 8oz/25gals 4oz/12.5 gals 2oz/6.25 gals So, 1oz/3.125 gals. By that, would use about 8oz in our SB trucks (26 gals) and get 4 tank fulls out of one bottle. BTW, that is one of the 5 products that I am currently testing.
