I ran it through Froogle without much success, still $2 cheaper at Wal-Mart for the 3 qt. jug.

I buy PS from either Walmart or Tractor Supply. Walmart is slightly cheaper.

I know you said on-line but I stock up at Napa when it comes on sale at least a couple times a year. They usually knock off $2-$3 per jug, best bet is in the spring when people are no longer buying it for cold weather and the stores want to reduce inventory.

Fleetfarm hands down. Nearly $2.00 cheaper than wallmart inthe 96 oz jug. They sometimes have it on sale for either 7 or 9 bucks forthe big jug.

Anyplace to get it in a larger container..say 5 gallonss???

I see on www.powerservice.com a "Agri Power" additive that seems to have similar characteristics to the others that is offered in 2.5, 55, 265, and 6000 gallon ammounts......

Ok, can somebody explain this stuff to me? What are the benefits? Am I hurting anything by not running it?

I have tried some different fuel additives in the past, and I can't tell that they did anything. Seems almost like a waste of money.

Who's going to be the brave one to buy it and distribute it to others? You will need a lot of containers to handle the product.

That and what are we going to do with 6000 gallons of fuel additive

If we could get by with that, we could all get by with discount fuel 10000 gallons at a time too.......

I use that 600 gal yearly. It goes into 115,000 gal of red-dye on the farm.

You mean you don't have a fuel tanker come visit your house every month?

Now that's funny. There aren't very many people that have a tanker come to their house. Heck we don't even have enough storage for a tanker.
