Cool, I don't get 2/3's of the products on this list, so I can't say for sure how they work. The only name brand diesel fuel additives I've used are Powerservice, when I was driving through Quebec a few years back. It worked well but I've had just as good results from the Kleen-Flo Low Sulphur Diesel Additive...but I'm not sure how widely available that is LOL It's just that I can get it locally, so it automatically wins my vote for true diesel additive.

Never had any issues running the Super Tech TCW3, highly recommend it. I buy it by the gallon and transfer it to a small 16-18 oz bottle I have prior to fill-up. Cheap and does the trick.

If it's the top end cleaner, I hear that it can potentially reduce lubricity, based on this independent test I saw on another forum:

Lubricity Additive Study Results - Diesel Place : Chevrolet and GMC Diesel Truck Forums

I can remember seeing this in PDF format somewhere, but my old computer crashed and I can't find the original document anywhere...so that will have to do.

It's surprising how high TCW3 oil is on this list for fuel lubricity, which is why I used it heavily in my old 6.2 (in which the IP is lubricated by fuel only)

I have been extremely neglectful of the diesel forums for the past year and am not familiar with them anymore but I knew it had to be somewhere.
