Monster diesel additive

I have looked around and can't find any threads on Monster Diesel? I am Perry Hall and found recentley that the Citgo @ Rt 40 and Middle River Rd have it premixed in their fuel. Question is, does anyone use and believe in it? I was told atleast 2 miles per gallon more by a Duramax user and more power as well as cleaner exhaust.

I tow a 9,000lb camper and 2 miles per gallon more would be great if it works and doesn't harm the Cummins.

Any thoughts?

I ran two bottles of it and saw no real increase. i did feel a little of a power boost by butt meter.

Try it and let us know your results.
Personally i think it's Snake oil. There's better things to spend your money on. Look into the cost of it and the "claimed 2 mpg" against savings. Not worth it.
I emailed them to try to get Dyno results or some other hard proof to back up their claims. Nothing!
