Sean, You didn't say car, truck or tractor so I'll chime in from experience with the 6.5T truck diesels with the stanadyne pump. If there's any water in your fuel and you use the wrong fuel additives, the injection pump will be damaged. Can't say the same thing will happen for any of the newer tractor engines, but I would be careful about using additives with unknown character. GM does approve certain additives but others can be bad news for the pump. Check with your engine manufacturer for guidance on what additives are approved. Keep your tanks full, filters drained of water and the cold weather additives used by the bulk suppliers should do the job.
