I used Power Service Diesel Kleen for several years. In my 6.0. The added Cetane rating can't hurt, and I think an additive is excellent preventive medicine. I switched to Optilube XPD about a year ago, and I like it better. A study shows it adds lubricity better than Diesel Kleen.
Having said that, if I had an '12 Ford with 6.7, I would ONLY use the Motorcraft additive. You can get it from Ford, or order online from many sources.
For the guy who said too much will cause gelling, that's just baloney. Don't know where you got that, but it just ain't so.
Got it from hard experience. Fuel filter kept clogging with a clear jelly-like substance. Dropped the fuel tank and cleaned it out. Kept using the additive and problem came back pretty quickly. Dropped tank again and stopped using the additive. Problem never came back. Never changed fuel purchase locations. So...not proof positive, but that was my experience.
Not to hijack, but wondering - were you using biodiesel?
