With the gasoline and diesel fuel prices increasing, people have come up with various solutions to go around this situation. One of these solutions is the use of diesel fuel additives. Primarily they are known to increase lubricity of fuel, hence decreasing the wear and tear of engine parts. What is more is that it also can increase gas mileage.

Being a highly complex fuel, diesel fuel’s chemical structure changes from the time it leaves the refinery to the time it is pumped into holding tanks and fuel station to the time it gets pumped into the vehicle. Oxidization and structural changes occur in the fuel molecules. The energy per unit volume of the fuel can change during this phase, and this is what will cause your engine to have poor performance.
