Re: Premium diesel fuel: is it worth it?

Yes, I've used and have two friends as well.

Myself and one friend like it in our 2000/2002 F250 7.3 diesel, more pep, a little better mileage.

My other friend will only use it if he plans to run it out quickly and not let it for a long period of time. He claims, the higher cetane diesel will grow algae clogging up filters, etc... if it's allowed to sit for a long time (a year or more).

I've also heard the higher cetane stuff both "off-road" and "on-road" will work great in your household furnace to heat your house in the winter time!

Were I live, Southern States sells the 50 cetane for the same price as others do the regular stuff, so we fill up whenever passing by, but don't go out of the way to get there.

Hope this helps,
