I use Stanadyne during the winter every other tank. I us it more when I know I will be parked outside (hunting). She is usually babied in the garage. Hard to find though.

Power service in the gray bottle for me year around. I use it every couple tanks. I also use 2 stroke oil (TCW3 ashless from walmart) every couple tanks as well.

Weaker mixed Stanadyne when I can find it, or weaker Lucas when I can't, every tank.

I use Amsoil Diesel Concentrate in every tank. Costs me about $2.50 per fillup.

I use Redline Diesel Fuel Catalyst or Amsoil Diesel Concentrate in each of my vehicles.

I run Marvels Mystery oil... 12 bucks a gallon at wally world and DOES NOT MEET THE ULTRA LOW SULFUR REQS... It's gotta be good right? Two or three glug, glugs, cap her and she hasn't missed a beat! [coffee]

Ever since I read this article, I feel obligated to share it anytime someone talks about additives. Good reading.

Amalgamated TDR-S. I've tried them all. The engine does run quieter with this brand. We'll check the mileage after a tank.

About every forth or fifth tank I pour in some Power Service Diesel Klean. For the rest it's a mixture of Optilube and TCW3.

Cheapy 2 cycle oil almost every tank and power clean every other tank. My 2nd gen loved 2 cycle oil. More the merrier. Haha.
