Usage

Designed for diesel‑powered vehicles and equipment, Howes Diesel Treat is ideal for trucks, buses, construction machinery, agricultural tractors, and stationary generators. Apply the recommended dose before the first cold‑weather start or during routine fuel maintenance to create a protective barrier against gelling, water accumulation, and deposit formation. The additive works equally well in high‑altitude environments where temperature fluctuations are common, and it is safe for use in both on‑road and off‑road applications. Users ranging from fleet managers to individual owners benefit from smoother cold starts, reduced injector wear, and longer filter life.
