Going to Colorado

Okay,

Getting ready to take a trip to Colorado.

I have Cetane boost and Powerservice in the trunk. I don't know about the fuel, hopefully I will fuel up here in el paso, then drive at least to the CO border. Hopefully I will get far enough to get good winterized fuel.

How much Power Service should I be using when I am up there? I will be putting 3 oz or so of Cetane boost.

Then nights up there have been getting down to about 2 degrees and I don't want to be stranded up there.

Let me know if there is anything else that I need to do.

Thanks

Because your Texas fuel doesn't have a lot of Diesel #1 in it, I recommend to fillup in Colorado before retiring for the evening and double or triple dosing the amount of Power Service - if it's Diesel Fuel Supplement. Arctic Express Anti-gell is simply a more concentrated version of DFS with more anti-gel chemicals in it.

Happy Holidays!

Yes it's diesel supplement in the white bottle. I bought 32 oz size fits in the little compartment in the trunk just right beside the cetane boost.

What is a normal dose so that I know what a double or triple is.

I have never used this stuff before. I have been using Amsoil's Diesel Fuel modifier every once in a while, but its kind of expensive to use all the time.

I am looking for something I can add all the time, I'm torn between Power Service or MM oil. Which would be cheaper to use long term?

MMO - 4-oz's per tank
Power Service - 6-oz's per tank
Cetane Boost - 3-oz's per tank

When you get to Colorado, just fillup and put a pint of DFS in it and you'll be good to go.

FYI, I have just been filling up at Flying J. No additives yet this winter. Down to 3 degrees the other day. No problems yet. Using additives is not a bad idea. I live in the Denver area. If I was going to go in the mountains and stop for any length of time, I would add my PS or Dr Diesel. If you buy Total 50 cetane, you will not need to dose it with cetane adder.

I'm going to evergreen just outside of Denver. I'm leaving the day after Christmas and staying up there for 4 day's

Thanks for the information
