Oil & Fuel BX Fuel Gels Up Despite Additive

Thanks for the replies. I’ve got about 3 million miles logged with mostly diesels. Never an issue. I’m no stranger. Even my current 3.0L Powerstroke could care less when it’s -15 out. I just find it weird that both BX’s seemed to be the common denominator. I plan to grab some kerosene tomorrow and add it to the tank if it’s going to stay this cold. As long as I have this BX, it may need to be the standard for winter. Tgg he ani’s again.

Most IL diesel is bio-diesel, I'd add an ounce or 2 of diesel 911. The BX's first filter is in front of the hydro cooling fan. 1st time mine iced up mower was locked in top position. 100' ac cord and heat gun that couldn't be wedged in place to thaw it out. Plan to replace it with a model B filter come spring.
