Most cold climate locations will use the white bottle but not really neccessary until temps are less than 10F. JMO.

just started running dk silver bottle and seems to be running smooth... will be switching to amsoil here in a few weeks just to try... truck is just shy of 200k so i don't know if additives are worth it or not but gives me a little peace of mind as long as they dont hurt it

Right now im running john deere fuel conditioner winter blend, but this summer im going to try the summer blend jd and dk and see if there is any mpg difference.

Run it

I have ran everything but opti lube in powerstrokes and dmax's and I have had the best results with dk grey bottle. I won't use anything but dk, although I do toss in 1oz of Kleen flo conditioner with every tank ontop of the dk

Update...after running the white do all winter I put in the silver summer blend with my most recent tank now that the weather is warming up a little bit and I noticed a slight bump in my mileage hand calculated I picked up .6mpg. The way I'm looking at it I am going to continue to run it being that it isn't hurting anything and its giving my piece of mind with the added lubricity.

I've used DK in my Powerstroke and now in the Duramax. I know for sure it made a huge difference in the PS, the truck runs as smooth as the day I bought it. I haven't noticed any difference in the Duramax yet as to lost MPG or any power difference but, as mentioned, the extra lube never hurt anything! Here in Canada the fuel stations add winter conditioner to the diesel already and I've never had to use the "white" DK, and that's down to -25 temps at times...Sherm
