I recently had a water-in-fuel problem and there's nothing more effective in learning the importance of keeping the fuel clean than 2 weeks of downtime.
I wound up using Howe's and Diesel 911, and I've got Killem Biocide ready to go.
From my readings (that means: I know very little), the Killem kills the live growing sludge, the Howes demulsifies the water (i.e., separates it out from the diesel so it can be drained) and minimizes cold weather gelling, and the 911 de-gels gelled diesel and is a solubilizer (as opposed to emulsifier or demulsifier), which supposedly is the best approach to water in diesel.
Now I know there are plenty of very good other products (Stanadyne, for example, or a cetane booster), and I'd appreciate any suggestions.
My question is: Can I and should I use multiple products, as they don't all do the same thing?
Thanks!
