I havn't been adding anything to my bulk tanks at all. Just the Lucas Extreme Cold, to the individual equipment tanks to prevent Gelling and provide lubrication for the injector pumps year round. It's supposed to provide cetane boost as well.
The thing is, I don't know how much to use in the winter because I don't know at any given time, what the viscosity is as I get shipments at all times of the year. Hence my original question.
But I seem to experience that Gelling happens at very specific termperatures. Your good to go on one day, the temp drops ten degrees the next and your dead in the water!
I'm not even sure, what I would treat the bulk tanks for at this point.
Why would you treat the storage tank any different than your vehicle tanks?
Your fuel concerns are not related to changing or variable viscosity.
According to a brief search I did on the Lucas product you are now using, you are already paying more for fuel conditioner than anyone I sell to or know, that Lucas stuff is high priced!
