Default keeping fuel from geling

I went a few pages back.. and didnt see any thing relating.

What do you use to keep your fuel from geling in winter?

A garage.......[sm=escape.gif]

Sorry, couldn't help it....

My impulse control ain't working today.

Get some Power Service in the white bottle and you'll be good to go. Have a bottle of the PS 911 (red bottle) handy just in case.

HAHA!! Well, I live in Pennsylvania. I have had my truck for 5 years, and its only geled on me twice. (knock on wood) I have tried a few things, including Lucas. So, I was just wondering what worked for other people. So thanks for sharing! [sm=smiley20.gif]

Like Cumminalong said, with the white bottle of power service it shouldnt gel up at all. I ran my truck at -5F with 30mph wind and had no problems at all. I ran 16 ounces to 35 gallons.

Drew's Brew from up in the FAQ section. I use 16 oz of walmart 2 cycle and 16oz of PS (White bottle in winter and gray bottle in summer).

I use heat. Anything over 45f works for me.
