Diesel Fuel Additives

Owners of diesels, do you use any of the fuel additivies on the market (bell performance, amsoil, stanadyne, power service, etc) to keep the tank and rest of the fuel system clean, etc ??
 
I use FPPF products as recomended by Yanmar. Valve-Tech not available in my area. I buy a cetene booster, and Fuel Power which disperses water and cleans injectors.
 
Do you use a biocide (maintenance dose) every fill up or only as needed ? Do you have bio-diesel blend where you boat ?

Thanks !!
 
Bio diesel not available in my area. I haven't used any biocides don't fell that I need to. Fuel doesn't sit in my tanks to long. I winter in Florida so I don't get much condensation, although Fuel Power does help with it.
 
You're lucky on the bio

I would love to upgrade to diesels, but we have 5% bio here in MN and with all the subsidies that 5% bio could be closer to 20% without anyone telling the consumer. Soy bio is good, but animal fat bio and others are not good for a marine diesel.

Thanks for the info.
