It's neat to see Stanadyne and Schaffers on either side of Super Tech 2-stoke oil, as I use both of these and I know many (and CHP) advocate the 2- stroke oil.
So I guess they are about the same when it comes to lubricity :sweet

Unless I'm reading things wrong, not exactly a ringing endorsement for Diesel Kleen.

I remember MoparMan's site saying long ago that DK was not a good lubricant.

I'm glad Minnesota jumped the gun and mandated a 2% bio fuel in all diesel pumps. Makes you feel good that the government sometimes does something right.

wow, i've been running Power Service since i bought the truck. I thought it helped more than that. i think ill have to try the FPPF or the Schaffer.

In the winter I HAVE to use an anti-gel, I run into problems when i don't. Anyone else's fuel gel up on them? I can't always get the winter blend and i might forget to put the PS in a tank from time to time.
