Rick, I've had the same type of issue when gasoline was mixed with the diesel.
I would recommend adding Power Service Diesel Kleen to your fuel. It boosts cetane and lubrication, which is an issue with the low sulphur fuels. I just started using it and can tell the difference. There is a silver bottle and a white bottle. The white bottle is for cold weather, and has better anti-gel properties than the silver bottle.
Here in Texas, I use the silver bottle and highly recommend it.
