TrickedCarbine01 Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 I finally made the plunge in to the Diesel world and picked up a Duramax/Allison Silverado 2500. It's freezing balls here and the additive the guy left in the console says nothing about Anti Gelling in the cold weather. I picked up some Diesel 911 at the gas station for my first fill up. Just curious what you fella's are running to keep the oil burners flowing the juice in the cold temps?

n2otoofast4u Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Nice truck Tricked! I've used the 911, and the stuff that Hopped posted. The 911 (I think) is more of an oh shit deal. The other stuff is more of a sustainable use stuff. Do you guys get winterized diesel? If so, it should be good to pretty fkn cold!Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebanshee98 Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Truck looks great. Get some inside pics. I would of personally got a crew cab but extended cab isn’t too bad either. Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is cold as balls where you live the diesel out of the pump already has the antigel additives. -18* f and all i had to do was plug in the block heater to get it to start.

Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Not sure if what we get out of the pump has the additive for winter. I picked it up with like an 1/8th of a tank and last night the temp dropped and you could hear the pump working pretty hard to move the fuel before I filled up and did additive. Guess a Fass lift pump should help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toybreaker Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Being in Michigan, pretty sure the fuel has the anti-gel additives starting in october..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginger Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 from what i know from mine, i use the white bottle above in the winter, the silver version in the summer, and the red 911 for if it gels up. running the white bottle in the winter, i have never had issues with it gelling up.
