I do know if you know but the white bottle PS is for cold weather .
I've use both , do not think you can go wrong with either , but I would put Amsoil above PS .

I've used both quite a bit in the past....I use the PS white bottle more just because of availability but I order the Amsoil stuff from time to time. I did notice that I picked up 1 MPG using the Amsoil over the PS white bottle...

There is another type of PS...it comes in a grey bottle but it has no anti-gel in it if I remember correctly....just to be used in warmer weather. I was told by a PS rep that I know that the white bottle is the stuff to use if you encounter any cold weather but use the grey bottle during warmer months and you'll pick up a bit of mileage. Still havent tried the grey bottle yet....

If I know I'm going on a couple of trips....I usually order 4-6 bottles of the Amsoil to use while on the trips to pick up mileage....

How much amsoil do u put in? exactly what bottle says or stronger? also how do u guys calculate fuel mileage more accurately? Because i can sit at pumps all day until truck is full. Do you just fill truck up to first click, then drive and then fill to first click again and record mileage and gallons?

There is also a PS 911 red small bottle , if you fuel has gelled and need to get it started , the 911 red will creep through the fuel system and ungell the fuel .
I fill the neck up till the foam goes away , filling to shut off , will vary a lot , because the pump willl pump at different rates , making for more or less foam , then how much anti foaming additive is in the fuel your getting from place to place .

Usually pour in half the bottle to a full tank....and then the other half on the next tank. I have poured in a full bottle before when I haven't gave the fuel system a good cleaning....but never noticed better mileage by adding more really....
