Newer trucks with the polypropylene tanks do a good job at fighting the bacteria so its not as big an issue anymore but with the ULSD it takes longer to heat up and produces less BTU's therefore promoting microorganisms and bacteria.

Biobor JF is a biocide used by many airlines and truck fleets to kill any bacteria and microorganisms.

I use racor biocide, no link sorry, but it worked great for me to kill the fungus that I got after getting a bad tank of fuel once.
