Alpha, your profile doesn't say where you are or how cold you expect it to get. However, your message would indicate you're in cold country. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif So, presumably, the diesel you buy fresh in your area should be blended properly to prevent gelling. You won't have the varnish from diesel like you get with gasoline, but there is a form of algae that can grow in diesel. I think the concensus of opinion is that if you buy fresh diesel and use it right then, you may not need anything. But you'll also find that many of us use an additive to stabilize, preven gelling, etc. There are several on the market, and you'll have to decide for yourself, but a number of us use Power Service year round in our diesel fuel; pretty inexpensive insurance in my opinion.
