One year someone bought a load of stright no. 1, and we had problems.

New Castle Transit has been adding the product from ACES for approximately one month. I know that it has helped in our mileage but we are now just starting to gather all the information needed. Once we gather all the data, we will be glad to forward it to you. If you have any questions on it, Leonard can help you.

If you all would go CNG, no gelling problems.

Hello Everyone....Because we were having fuel gelling problems last winter in our Cummins ISB's, the only fuel additive we have ever used was due that problem. We used an in the tank (vehicle) additive called "fleet guard" to prevent the gelling...worked pretty good from what I heard.

No Additives here either.Did a little test a few years back,increased mileage but not enough to overcome cost of additive. John

Has anyone been using or putting any additives in there fuel, either when buying or after it is in your storage tank? I am looking at an additive that is "suppose to" increase fuel mileage,power at pull out,increase hp, burn the fuel cleaner, lower nox's. I saw a demostration of the burning of it and it did burn cleaner.The name of this product is ACES. It is used in government vehicles, and is now just coming out in the open market. If we try this I will keep you updated.
Thanks,
Gary
