Fuel Additive

I was wondering if any of you had used the Hydrotex brand of fuel conditioner. A friend of mine is a dealer and says that it works great to increase mpg and quitens up the engine clatter. I spoke with a man that owns a dump truck service and concrete company (own about 30 trucks, Macks) and he uses it in all of his trucks and says it works great. I know about Diesel Kleen and Stanadyne. Just trying to check out all the options
I am getting ready to go on about a 400 mile trip looking for show animals for my students and would like to get all my bang for my buck.
Thanks

I've never heard of it. As long as it doesn't contain any form of alcohol give it a try. How much does it cost?

I didnt ask I am going to give him a call tomorrow for more information I just ran into him at the station on his way to a roping. He didnt have his books or prices with him. I will let you know tomorrow if I get ahold of him.
I am going to get him to fax me over a spec sheet on it.

I spoke with him today and it doesnt have any alcohol or even any cetane and it comes in a case of 24-12 oz bottle and the case will treat up to 4800 gallons for 98.55. I am going to get a case later this month and try it. Will let yall know how it works

That's going to be a long trial. Please don't wait to use it all before reporting the results.
