Very informative though; thanks for the experiments!

Fuel sample used: Commercial product, Blue Sun 100% Biodiesel. Largest Colorado producer, ASTM cert fuel.
Just had a lengthy conversation with a tech at Power Service, they say that NOTHING so far has been effective with BD (and they even sell a Biodiesel Anti-gel).
Problem they have is that additives like Arctic Express may indeed lower the pour point, but NOT the plug point of BD.
Also said that they found #2 diesel is more effective than #1 (Kero) at winterizing. They found that K1 elongated the crystals (instead of separating, they attach in a chain) and #2 does not exhibit that same characteristic.
