For those who wish to use additives, do a google search for "home-brew diesel fuel additive". Since there are only three components in the most pop0ular additive (according to the MSDS), it is quite easy to mix your own for less than $10 per gallon!
Look up the MSDS for your favorite additive. Find out exactly what is in the stuff. I looked up a highly recommended biocide recently. I won't have a bottle of that stuff on the property! It is worse than Roundup weed killer!
It has to be read the word 'cide'. It's a herbicide, plain and simple and once you grow red algae in your fuel and pay the piper for your lack of understanding about how algae grows and what you have to treat it with.
On another tread I alluded to what it cost me and I did the mechanical work myself and the parts alone was over a grand.
I use Roundup-Ultra, Crossbow and 2-4-D all the time, I farm and every farmer I know does so you get to eat the treated crops when you go to the supermarket for groceries.. But I guess ignorance is bliss...
Some comments on this site just amaze me and I don't usually reply but in this case I am subscribed to this thread. so I did.
