Cold Weather question...

My 00' PSD was a bit mad this morning at 10 below. She was plugged in an started just fine. But, going to work she dropped RPM's to 500 a few times when stopped a red lights and while driving seemed to lose power only to regain seconds later.
Could this be the fuel gelling? What kind of additive should I add? Never added anything before.

Thanks all.

Try white bottle Power Service fuel supplement. It can be found at Wally World.

Did you just take on some new fuel? Maybe you got a bad batch? I also use the Power Service anti-gell formula and have never had a problem, but we rarely ever see -10 here in Boise.
