Any additive that contains Methyl or Ethyl Alcohol will ruined a DI gasoline or diesel injection system. The only "safe" de-icer" is IPA isopropyl Alcohol, in small doses.
I've said it on this forum before and I'll say it again, Power Service ate one of my injection pumps...
It goes below 0F here every winter and I don't use any witch craft products, I just buy good fuel in the first place and I don't have any fuel problems at all!

"I" didn't know, but my injection pump guy opened it up, first thing he said was, "you been using power service".That's odd that you know certainly that Power Service ate an injection pump but yet my 18 year old 240K mile truck has drank it every year with no problems. :confused3:
I agree 110%.
Put diesel in your fuel tank nothing more. Buy good winter fuel for winter. It has been -21 here this winter and I致e had no problem with my tractor. Winter fuel is already cut and ready for your localized temps, no need to put more crap in it!

SO, a guy that rebuilds pumps for living knew!!

Sounds like a good place to be FROM!!No argument here. Just telling you that's not true in my locale. My Son works for a Tow Service. When temps get close to zero and/or below 95% of their business is gelled diesels. An Interstate hiway runs thru our County. A sizable percentage of those tows are trucks off that hiway. So obviously it's not just my little piece of Missouri that is selling fuel that's not properly treated.
