Diesel fuel additive

[Why Worry]

Hello,

Can anyone please recommend a good diesel fuel additive? I think I got a bad batch of fuel.

Many thanks,

Depends what is wrong with your diesel. Water? Algae? Low quality? If you got it from a commercial supplier, I would be having words with them.

I use sea foam about every 3rd to 5th tank in my diesel tractors. But as sated if you got it from a commercial supplier in bulk I would have them test it or take it to be tested and find out what is wrong with it.

depends on your problem ,, I recommend 911 for water and ice ,, seafoam for algae and cleaning ,. and lucas fuel stabilizer for lubrication and cleaning,,. a qt of atf in a tank of diesel or gas seems to make all problems stay away ..

John Deere fuel additive for the high pressure system, like John Deere's in there engines. I been told there fuel system build's a lot of pressure, and the little bit that gets returned to the tank is almost black.

Power Service, Stanadyne, and Seafoam are all good choices. If you've got water you might try some isopropyl alcohol along with the additive, to help bind with the water and get it through the system.

If you've got algie, then NOTHING BUT AN ALGACIDE/Biocide, (Biobore is one name brand) is going to work to kill it. It's one of those gifts that just keeps on giving, until it's all dead and filtered out of the system.

You Farmall guys will believe anything that knocks JD. if you check around you will find that most all newer diesels are running High Pressure system. i have a duromax and it is HP
