It certainly cannot hurt and has been proven to help when the diesel fuel has low-lube. Do you trust every fuel seller to be putting the proper lube additives in? I don't and I don't think modern fuel makers are very concerned about older machines with rotary distributor-type mechanical fuel injection pumps.
New York recently switch all the heating oil and farm/off-road diesel to low-sulfur. The seller I buy from puts the additive heating oil if it gets sold for engine-fuel.
Tests have been done and I believe them. Buy two-stroke-cycle oil at Walmart in gallon jugs and it gives the best added lube protection for the buck. Mix at a 200 to 1 ratio.
THE RESULTS:
These results are listed in the order of performance in the HFRR test. The baseline fuel used in every test started at an HFRR score of 636. The score shown is the tested HFRR score of the baseline fuel/additive blend.
Also included is the wear scar improvement provided by the additive as well as other claimed benefits of the additive. Each additive is also categorized as a Multi-purpose additive, Multi-purpose + anti-gel, Lubricity only, non-conventional, or as an additive capable of treating both gasoline and diesel fuel.
As a convenience to the reader there is also information on price per treated tank of diesel fuel (using a 26 gallon tank), and dosage per 26 gallon tank provided as �ounces of additive per 26 gallon tank�.
In Order Of Performance:

HFRR 221, 415 micron improvement.
50:1 ratio of baseline fuel to 100% biodiesel
66.56 oz. of 100% biodiesel per 26 gallons of diesel fuel
