Not sure how old your car is, but used to be you could use around a gallon of
87 octane per tank to thin it out. At least that is what owners manual said
Drygas, specifically iso-alcohol.
Seafoam and Power Service Diesel Supplement tout the same...

Not sure if block heater worked but it started after three cranks! I ended up
getting gelled up on 295 just outside of Portland. I dumped a half quart of
PowerService Diesel 911 and it started right up! That stuff is amazing!

snaps or fits in a recess in the metal brackets there. I don't recall there
being a fastener in that area.
