Well, it gets COLD here, and I have yet to see ANY anti-gell be of any use on a fuel system that is already gelled up, and it's 20 or 30 below. If a guy is gonna buy a diesel in this cold NORTH, there should be an IQ test required that you're smart enough to have winter fuel in it BEFORE the bitter cold hits. A couple of times, the local gas stations haven't got their winter blend in in time, and even the local school buses have gelled up. That should be CRIMINAL since there's no excuse for it. It is a matter of life and death out here. Run a trusted winter blend, or straight #1 when it's bitter cold. I (stupidly) had an Olds 88 diesel gell up with the family along in the early 80's, and have never let it happen since.
