XPD is new and was featured in diesel power. FPPF was also featured in the same article. There is Diesel Kleen which is readily available at most auto parts stores. There are many others as well. I am running FPPF Total Power (lubricity, cetane, injector cleaner).

Rob is correct in that there is much information already posted on FTE regarding diesel additives. You can also find valuable information on the manufacturers websites. The three additives that I have read the most about are Stanadyne, Diesel Kleen, & Motorcraft. I have personally been running Stanadyne Performance for some time with good results. I am a believer that an additive will provide long term benefits to the reliability of your 6.0.

I've been using Power Service but someone else posted a a great source for Stanadyne (the gold standard) and I'm going to start getting it from them.
Here it is...

Been adding a few ounces of TCW-3 outboard oil to the fuel per one of the threads on this site. Used the Walmart brand. Engine running very well and seems to be a bit quieter than before use. Been doing it for about a month and a half now with no problems.

I use Stanadyne with every fill up. You can really tell a differance... And it's cheap injector insurance.
