Default Cleaning diesel tank

It certainly does, although most people find out the hard way after
their filters clog on a rough day.

I was talking to a professional fuel polisher in North Carolina last
month who highly recommends Priocide. He said that it is as effective
as Biobor at kiling "diesel bugs" but results in less clumping. That
makes the residue easier to filter and less prone to clogging tank
screens.
