The only additives I use is Lucas injector cleaner and anti gel once the temps get down near zero degrees. The only ones I can see needing 2 cycle oil is those who own a 2nd Gen truck with VP/VE fuel pumps. Heck I know of many 1997-2005 Cummins engines in semi trucks that burn over 120 gallons of ULSD per day and have yet to report any problems from ULSD.

Check this study out. Some great info in here regarding lubricity and additives.

For what its worth I do run the Optilube XPD or their summer blend because biodiesel isn't readily available where I'm at. Your best bet is bio though if you can find it.
One thing I would certainly recommend for keeping a good fuel system is additional filtration.

As an OTR driver, I found Howe's DC able to handle all crappy fuel problems.
