Diesel Additive

What additives are safe to use on our trucks? Buddy at school said he dumped bottle of injector cleaner in his and got 20+ mpg driving to Missouri. His truck is identical to mine but a 95'. the best ive seen is 18 and thats with intake and straight piped. What can i do for better mpg other than my right foot?

I always use power service, the one in the white bottle. I buy it by the gallon and keep it and a measuring cup in my truck so I can put a little in whenever I fill up. It seems to help with mileage a bit, but not right now cause I got a leak

I got looking at their lit. and saw john deere's winter blend has identical results but only 1 cetene pt lower. Whats the price of standadyne? I can get the JD for $5.60/pint treats 56 gallons
