I know the truck in my sig never had a cat, but my other truck was a 97 powerstroke that had minor injector issues from ULSD, but this Supertech really smoothed it out. As far as the cat goes, it can do just that if it does get plugged. But if you run the TCW3 you won't have any problems.

5% Biodiesel (B5) is best, if you can get it at a reasonable price.

Howes is more expensive and Wally-World 2-stroke oil has more lubricity.

Howes is usually used for anti-gell properties, but most diesel fuel sold in the winter months already has anti-gell added.

I add 16 oz of WW 2-stroke at each fill-up.
