Hi AD, As Marlowe suggested, ATF type F works well for maintaining clean injectors and the fuel system. What might work better if there truely gummed, is straight vegetable oil, any kind, as #2D leaves a residue flim in the fuel system. The guys using B100 bio-diesel complain alot about the first couple tanks of B100 plugging fuel filters because of all the crap in the system. Besure the ambiment temp is above 40* or so as B100 will gell right up at around 20*F. If you take the injectors out, then Berryman B-12 works very well on removing the carbon build up (can't be used as a diesel fuel). You might also want to check the price on new injectors tho as some are very reasonable priced. T_Bone
