SEAFOAM at most auto parts stores.They're other stuff there also.But SEAFOAM is kinda tried and true.Two cans of Seafoam to a tank and some Marvel Mystery oil in the fuel with it.

My truck was starting to blow a fair amount of smoke in the mornings and Idle kinda rough till it warmed up unless I upped the rpm to just over 1000. I just added a half a bottle of Howe's Meaner Kleaner to a full tank and WOW!
I didnt know a diesel could run so smooth. Its up about 1.5mpg no more smoke or rough idle and it is so quit I can hardly tell its running with my stereo turned up. I am a big fan of the Meaner Kleaner!

How long did you have to run it to make a difference?

Seafoam has alcohol in it=really harsh on the CR injectors. You will notice a difference if they are gummed up.
