I began using Power Service at Day 1 with my JD 24hp, which was 6 years ago. A year and a half ago I bought a Duramax diesel and used PS from the start. About 6 months ago I ran out of PS at fill time for my truck. I decided to try a few tanks without. I can't tell even one tiny bit of difference in the way the engine runs or in mileage.
Stopped using the PS in my tractor at the same time. That was right at the time to change the tractor fuel filter. I changed it cuz it was time, but the filter was clean and the fuel bowl was, too. I felt like I threw away a good filter. But, I have no clue whether to give the credit to PS or not.
Anyhow, gel prevention in the winter is worth it. I'm skeptical of the cetane claims...not enough improvement to make any difference in my truck. Another post on Diesel Fuel Additives says GM recommends Stanadyne, but I don't recall reading that anywhere in the Owner's Manual. Maybe I missed it.
So, what do you think? Are Power Service or Stanadyne worth it?
