Greg, I bought a little diesel a few years back that had not been taken care of over its life. You couldn't start it without ether, it had sat in a shed for 8 years. After doing the filters and lubricants it was still a hard starter and a poor runner, that's when I poured the diesel conditioner to it. I use a three in one formulae purchased at our Canadian Tire chain. The formulae cleans injectors, removes moisture and lubes the pump. After a few tanks of fuel was put through it it now starts easily and runs well. I put this product in my 584 as well just to take care of anything that might be in the fuel. I also add a quart of oil to the diesel fuel in the cold weather or when real heavy slugging is coming up like ploughing. The oil lubes the pump as well and it does give energy value to the fuel. Trucking companies have been doing this for years, filter their used motor oil and add it to the fuel. A product that will clean injector tips is well worth the money spent on it. I now have a great running small diesel tractor because of additives, I didn't have to rebuild the pump or remove the tank to drain it, or replace injectors.....Mike in Exeter Ontario
