Stanadyne vs Powerservice
I have been running Powerservice (gray) but would like to try some Stanadyne. Where best to find it in the Houston area or even better - where best to order it from online?
Is there much difference between the two?

I agree find what is available in your area and run it, no matter what the brand, just make sure it is one of the top ones.

Sabow,
We are waiting for a Stanadyne order to hit the loading dock as we type this! We chose Stanadyne as they are the only OEM approved conditioner and they have the highest ratings as well. So high in fact that John Deere wanted Stanadyne to package their product in their Green/yellow containers and they wouldn't do it, so JD basically copied it and packages it themselves!!! That's a good product endorsement!!
Stanadyne also does NOT contain any alcohol, lots of brands do and while not horrible for a diesel its used only because it's cheap. We don't have it on our site yet, but will soon and you can always get a hold of us for orders. If you want to order some now just call, we'll ship it the day it arrives!!

When Diesel performance was out the last time I needed a case I found a site on E-Bay who had some cases. But I would rather buy from our advertisers. I buy it by the case and keep a couple of bottles behind the seat and I use it with every tankfull. Never had a problem in 22K miles on a Jan 04 build. As you can see it doesn't get driven much..Good Luck

BTW like Stanadyne, Diesel Kleen does not contain alcohol either.

Stanadyne can also be purchased on the web direct from manufacture

Hope this helps

Yes . . .
Sorry, didn't mean to imply a question, more of a statement that using this is also good, nonalcoholic and readily available too as reason able price. Don't use the white btl here on the gulf coast, never cold enought . . .

Unlike where they shut the airport down as the air is too hot to provide lift to the planes. Do they make a gold for those days so the diesel stays dense enough . . .

Stanadyne plays up the "Ford approved", but Ford dealers can buy PowerService thorugh their Blue Oval or Diamond program (not sure of the exact name). As well, only PowerService is the fuel additive used or recommended by International....
Both brands are quality and will serve you well. I will have to go back and find my old post/link where I posted that I called Stanadyne and Powerservice about 9 months ago.... but until use either at full or double dosage for great results.
I use Powerservice due to availability and lower cost.
By the way, I use a camping fuel bottle (msr.com) so I can refill it from the 96oz jugs of PowerService I buy (less expensive to refill).
