Ok so I took your advice and got some Diesel Kleen and put some in at my last fillup. Have used about a 1/4 of a tank and can feel and hear the results already. The motor is running a lot smoother and quieter. Thanks boys. Do you guys add it every fillup?
Most guys add some sort of additive to their fuel at every fill-up. Diesel Kleen works good as well as Amsoil and two-stroke oil. Stick w/ what you're using, as you seem to like the results so far!

Amsoil equipped, hmmmm, i cant remember the rest
I add 10oz Diesel Kleen to every fill up. It will pay for its self with better fuel milage. If it cleans and protects as advertised I don't see how you can go wrong. I've heard that the Amsoil is great also but haven't used it yet.
I've been using Opti-Lube. It was rated one of the highest regarding lubrication properties. Been using 10 oz per tank.

I didn't see any improvement from Diesel Kleen but did from AMSOIL Fuel Concentrate and Cetane Booster. Am getting 2-3 mpg with every tank. Every truck is different though and driving conditions and environments play a big part on it.
