If you are uncertain about the quality of your diesel fuel, I would add Power Service (white or gray bottle; different mixes but both will boost lubricity).
Personally I get my diesel from one source (Meijer, a large grocery chain that has gas stations) that has reliable premium diesel and I have had zero problems. I have two diesel trucks and I can tell the difference between this source and basic #2 diesel sold by stations that don't care what's in the fuel.
I have used biodiesel (B20, which is 20% bio) in my trucks with no problems and noticeably less soot. As noted, it also boosts lubricity even when it's as low as 2%. I have not yet used it in my tractor because the dealer specifically told me not to and I'm debating whether to take a risk (again, no problems using it in two trucks - a 2005 and 2006).
