Power Service makes Diesel Kleen. White bottle has the anti gel for winter, gray bottle for summer. Buy it at walmart.
I also try to get the stuff from NAPA (Mac's Diesel fuel conditioner w/ anti gel)whenever I can because it does not conform to 2007 emissions standards.
Also Anderson's European Auto in Golden, where I have my emissions done, carries Stanadyne. Its a little more expensive, but you dont have to use much.

I second the power service anti-gel (white bottle) stuff works great here in northern indiana, and I always try to keep my tank more than half full and mostly always use flying j fuel, think they treat theirs regularly. Usually only start using anti gel when the forecast calls for it to drop close to 0 degrees outside.

Again, reading in my Amsoil catalog I got from a guy and found out they sell a anti gel, looking at the book..diesel cold flow improver, $6.40 for a 16oz bottle. They also have a diesel concentrate plus cold flow improver. Looks like it's additive plus the cold flow improver, 16oz bottle $8.45. Probably on Amsoil's website, not sure how price compares to power service but I remember buying power service at the truck stop before and not ever doing that again because of what it cost compared to the stanadyne fuel additive.

Lot's of posts from me about Amsoil....sorry, converted my truck to Amsoil oil and filter and got a catalog with all of their products.

This will not stop gelling, but it will lube the VP.
