Your car should run fine on diesel with no additives. Read about tuning.

How much PS do you add per tankful. I believe my wagon has a 15 gallon tank and I have been using about 8 oz. of PS silver.

Make your own diesel additive -- biodiesel. Just a liter or so every tank. Might be cheaper than PS even if buying new vegetable oil. Use Heet and Red Devil, dump the glycerine.

I don't mean to hi-jack this, but I was wondering how much my wagon's tank holds. I think the book said it holds 17 plus one gallon for reserve. Then again mine is a 83.....I don't know if that makes any difference.
