Hey guys I am new to diesel trucks since I just got my licence and it i my first truck. I have less than a quarter tank in my truck right now and there is no additive in it , I have some Howes Diesel Treat and was wondering how much do you put into it ? ? ? , should i fill the tank then put some in or what ?? any help is appreciated thanks ... and I don't know if i should use the whole bottle it is 1.9 liters , thanks..My truck is a 1993 4x4 5 speed if that helps any ?

 

Just get some Diesel Kleen by Power Service, its on sale at O'Reilly's right now.

 

If it's a new to you truck I would run a can of BG 244 Cleaner through it to clean off the injectors right off the bat. BG Company

As to putting additive in your tank when you fill up, you just fell in to the snake pit! You have guys that run 2 stroke oil and guys that run Brand X because it's the best, guys that say you don't need a darned thing. There is a study out that covers a few of the products but it is suspect because of who sponsored it.

If you live in a cold climate you can not loose running something with an anti-gel to it.

I run Schaeffer Oil | Diesel Treat 2000 Fuel Additive in the spring/summer and Schaeffer Oil | Diesel Treat 2000 Winter Fuel Additive in the fall/winter to stop gelling. You can get it on ebay or at Buy1oils Schaeffer Oil | Buy Schaeffer Oil | 360-336-2319

Hope this helps!
