When you fill up before putting the coach in storage I would add a heavy dose of This additive. I run the summer version all year.Alpena Jeff said:I should have added....Coach will be in a storage facility yet to be determined until we leave for warm weather in February. Will likely be cold storage.

Gary, anti gel as in Howe? Yea, chatted with a trucker today. 8)Gary RV_Wizard said:If you buy fuel in the cold months in a far northern climate the station will have filled its tanks with a winter blend, one that has a lower viscosity (either #1 diesel or simply one with some anti-coagulant additive). Regions that don't get severe cold don't do that, though their winter fuel is still probably blended a bit different at the refinery.
Chances are you will fill your motorhome tank before the fuel stations get winter blend though. RVers usually quite well before sub-freezing weather! Before storing for the winter season, add anti-gel additive to your tank and also an anti-algae additive and fill the tank. It will be fine.
BIG JOE said:I've been using the POWER SERVICE (Walmart) fuel treatment products for years & years. Grey jug in the Spring & Summer for a Cetane boost , White jug in the fall & winter for it's anti-gel properties. Never a Cold Weather No Start. Comes in various jug sizes, depending on tank capacity ?
Well just for the record Gary, Diesel Kleen is recommended by Cummins
Yes Gary, once apon a time that was true. but this article is dated May 10, 2017 08:30 AM Eastern Daylight Time. So apparently they have changed their mind.Gary RV_Wizard said:Yeap. And Cummins also says fuel additives are not necessary for proper operation. Take your pick.
