you wont have to worry about jelling just below zero. summer fuel jells at about minus 40 in a storage tank. once winter comes the companies switch diesel over to a winter blend which has less wax in it. but with today's diesels who knows whats in it.but for jelled diesel we used to thin it by adding kerosene. there is also diesel additives you can add to the fuel tank.years ago we were told to add up to 10 percent unleaded gas to the tank, but have never tryed that. if your not in temps of -40 or lower u dont need to worry. another thing with diesel engines , they have a line returning to tank from injectors for cooling them and this fuel is warm so will eventually warm the tank fuel slowly. but its not applicable to all old tractors.
