If you choose to use a fuel conditioner make sure it is a emulisifier and not a demulsifier. Demulsifier contains alcohol which when mixed with water both will pass through the water separator through the pump and injector which will damage the components;
Stanadyne is an emulisifier conditioner, available at Central diesel injection in Red Deer, and if you purchase in a 64 oz bottle its reasonably priced, and buy a 6 pack and get 6 for the price of 5!!!.Stanadyne is only one example of whats (IMO) is okay to use, just do your research.

2 cycle oil;
not a good idea if your diesel has the new DPF system. It will cause more frequent regen's. depending on how much is used....
I am pretty sure you want a demuslifier conditioner if you use one. That way your water filter will capture the water, instead of allowing it through the filter.





Yes, , my bad, had the demulsifier and emulsifier backwards.




Also, most conditioners also contain Cetane boost which can be a benefit as well.
