Why Would I Use K100 in Hot Weather?

Hot weather is more reason to use K100!

Hot weather means heat and humidity - and moisture building up in the fuel tank. That moisture is a breeding ground for microbes in diesel fuel. Heat just adds "fuel to the fire" and those microbes grow into colonies which clog filters. ULSD grows microbes faster than LSD, and a B5 or B10 mixture will grow them faster yet. In E-10 gasoline, enough moisture in the tank will cause phase separation, and may make the engine difficult or impossible to start.

A solid year-round fuel maintenance program uses K100 in warm weather at a reduced treatment ration to stay ahead of the moisture contamination. K100 encapsulates any moisture in the tank, eliminating free water that supports microbe growth in ULSD and causes phase separation in E-10 fuel.
