Y'all use diesel additives? What's a good one? tia
Most in the cold areas DO use an additive - many to choose from too.

Many use this - but I would imagine they all treat about the same.

Some add summer additives too - to bring up the cetane number and to remove moisture, I have never used this particular one

Any reputable brand is better than nothing. Demulsifier is preferred to wring any water out. Power Service summer is not, but its still a solid product. Howes, Amsoil; Standyne are my go to.

Consider a biocide additive in diesel stored in a container or sitting in the tractor's tank for more than a few weeks.
