Diesel Kleen & Biodeisel ?

Morning Guys? Can I use or better yet should I use Diesel Kleen in my truck just for precaution because of very cold temps this year -15 am I have been running Biodiesel now for about 7 months.
I just switch to Mobil 1 5W-40W Syn. oil/filter just last night because you all seem to really like it and I have pondered it for about a year now. OH by the way the STEALERSHIP said no to the 5W-40W not approved for the 7.3.of course I ignored that statement.
I LOVE THIS FORUM'S HELPERS YOU GUYS A GREAT!!!!

Do not run over 20% concentration of Biodiesel in those temperatures! That stuff turns to wax very easily when it gets cold. If you are running 80% #2 diesel, then run the white bottle (winter use, anti-gel) at an 80% concentration. So if you were to normally put in 20 ounces, put in 16 now.

DK or other companies make an anti-gel for those temps. Bio has a lower gel point so I'd avoid it.,
