There are many diesel fuel additives. What have you used,what did it do?
This may be more help to USA members than Aussies, as product brands may vary country to country.
To kick it off, I used "Afloc"( recommended by my ex Navy diesel mechanic as in use by the Army), in a final effort to avoid draining and scrubbing tanks in a previous boat. It quickly cleaned up a filter clogging tankful with a bad analysis. Afloc is off the market, I`m about to try "Fuelmaster" which makes similar claims to remove water and stop bugs. Both products warn of possible filter plugging (?dead bug residue) in the clean up phase, though it didn`t happen with Afloc.
What did you use (if anything),how did it go, what are the advantages/disadvantages of these products?
