Couldn't seem to find any info on pm 22 a as to lubrication and rust control. Do you know if it covers that?

4 oz of PM-22 per tank and a highly used diesel station is all you need.

Stanadyne Lubricity is approved by Bosch, and according to Stanadyne's literature, contains up to 5 times the lubricity of other additives. From everything that I have read, lubricity and water demulsifying are the two things that the Ford/Bosch system needs. This brand rated very highly in the evaluation tests. It was the additive recommended to me by a Turbo shop, and they sold several brands.
Check out their website.

Actually have a question about the pm 22 a I have some 23 a left over from winter. Does anyone know if 23 is the same as 22, just with anti-gel? Can I finish off the 23 in the summer or should I just save it for next winter?
