Yes, it will on its own when it gets warm enough. I treat mine all year long in the trucks and tractors using either PS or Howes. Every time I add fuel, or just refuel. I don't have problems that way. I hear fellas say never necessary to treat it because its treated from the refineries. More than once in the past not treating it, I've gelled/waxed up. It aint fun limping down an Interstate at 20 MPH because the injectors on your Cat or Cummins are near closed, and then it still takes time for the 9-1-1 or whatever you have available to do its job, and that's after you limp into a truck stop at the next exit 20 miles down the highway. Been there, done that more than once and have no intentions of ever doing it again. So when I hear fellas say it aint necessary or call additives like PS or Howes snake oil...good for them. I've never had that problem again treating it all year long. One I still haven't tried is a quart of ATF every 100 gallons to keep the injectors clean and lubricated. Know fellas that have for hundreds of thousands or millions of miles that swear by it, and figure they should know. I just haven't yet, but mean to give it a try.
