Winter Fuel CockTail?

[Chuck Wheeler]

Bill,

I use the Power Service products all the time since the advent of ULSD. I usually add the the supplement first then fill up to mix things well. We have operated in temperatures as low as -14 with no problems. The bio kleen is probably a good idea if your BB is going to sit for several months. But it also needs to be mixed in AND circulated through the fuel lines, injection pump, and filters or you could still have a problem. I would take a Sunday drive run it out about 100 miles, pour every thing in and fill it up from a high speed pump to mix things up, and run back in to circulate it through the fuel system.

Subject: [WanderlodgeForum] Winter Fuel CockTail?

Hello all,

Sadly, I'm about to park and cover the coach for the next several months. I want to make
sure the fuel winters well. The tank is full (265 gallons). I have had no issues with fuel
so far. The coach has been running great. The fuel in the tank is fresh and untreated.

My local heavy truck counter recommended the following cocktail

* PS (Power Service) Diesel Fuel supplement (80 oz bottle)

* Winter Warrior Ice O- Dry (isopropyl alcohol) 12 OZ

* Power Service Bio Kleen (5 oz.)

Is this a good recommendation?
Is there a better cocktail?
Does it really matter?

Is it necessary to drive the coach around to mix this stuff up after putting it in? Today
may be my last opportunity to drive her before the DOT starts spreading s--t all over the
roads.

Also, the fuel filters have been in place for about 3,000 miles and one year. There are
not issues. Should I leave these alone for now or change them?

Your input is always appreciated.

Thanks - Bill NH
