What Temp does #2 Diesel Jell at???????????

My Mom's MF jelled at 10º one year sitting outside. I bought a can of Power Service 911 and that ungelled the fuel in about 24hrs along with some heat, maybe 50º barn temps. I did have to change the fuel filter tho as the wax was too thick on the filter.

You can also buy Power Service (white bottle) that's anti-gel just about any Wal-Mart or Truckstop that will keep #2 from gelling. Less expensive than 911. PS911 is supposed to be for already gelled diesel.

I too have used 10%gasoline with #2 and never had a gell problem.

Since we live outside of Phoenix we don't get winter diesel here so I use PSwb when I heading to the cold country in my PSD.

I am quite fond of barbequeing with my gas barbeque year around, on my front deck. Works well even down to 0 degrees F. It damn well don't work in the wind. I believe you folks need a bit more proof. Oh, one more thing, flesh tending the cooking refuses at temps below 0 degrees F, wind or no wind.

Trouble is, you have to get someone else to take the temperature!

And this can be explained by the first Law of Thermodynamics that states"

"Hest flows from a higher temperature to a lower tempertaure"

So a tractor at 10º steel temps with abiment temps at 10º, has zero BTU to give up.

A body at 98.6º in 10º abiment temps will give up 98.6-10=88.6º of heat to loose. As the skin has 10º air move accross, it will cause the moisture of the skin to evaporate quicker thus cause an additional cooling effect named windchill.
