No information to offer, but if you would try and share data with us, we'll offer full support and warranty on the engine.

Cheers,
Barry

Spike,

Curious, what brand and is the pump specifically labeled as "winterized"? I've been using Shell diesel in Northern Colorado, last refilled my jug mid-December, haven't noticed any changes: My K-80G still starts and runs fine.

Thanks,
Greg

All cold states using the winterized diesel the have add similar to jet fuel to make the fuel more stable it's actually much better than regular summer fuel so do not worry all should be just fine.

Right. Additives are to keep the fuel from gelling up in tanks in the cold. I assumed if it was warm enough it should be fine, but didn't want to risk my engine.

My local Maverick station started advertising winterized diesel about a month ago.
