Raising Cetane number

How can we raise the cetane in fuel? I have read in the forum that some people are using stuff from Wall Mart, but our Wall mart in Canada does not have that stuff. Any other additive that have that cetane raiser?

I was thinking of having my back thank quite higher in cetane so when I need more effective fuel in cold wheather I would switch tank about a couple of miles before I stop the engine so when I start up again there would be high concentrated cetane fuel in the system so it would fire up quicker.

Just a though

Lotsa companies make cetane boosters. Try the truck stops, IH dealer, or anywhere that sells either Stanadyne or Redline products
