Those additives may lower the viscosity, BUT what do they do to the combustion process? I started another thread with hours and hours of reading material. That information should clear up some questions. The most basic question has to be "How long can you use it?" ("It" being the kind of fuel...

Without heating, you couldn't start the thing unless you live in Texas or Florida, I guess :-), which brings me to a standing question I have about...
