In either case (P-Pump or VP44)... I would very careful on the amount of anti-gel you dump in. This stuff is mostly mineral spirits or naptha. I works great as a thinner (anti-gell) but remember while your doing this your reducing the lubricity of the fuel. (Causing more wear to your IP pump). With ULSD (#2, Winter blend, #1) regardless has been reduced in sulfur (Lubricity) greatly. So use these products very carefully. Don't add wildly...

As for the 2 Cycle Oil it has worked wonderful so far with no problem yet... I'm at +10*F for a start this morning... I know it'll fire up easy...

It might get it to start but you'll do some serious damage to your IP pump. Remember everything that yyour using (kero, PS 911, etc) uses chemical that are very similar to kero, naptha, xylene for anti-gel properties... So that why its a good choice to switch or blend a heavy dose of 2 cycle oil over the top... To proptect your expensive IP-Pumps!
