Opti-Lube Gel Melt Emergency Diesel Fuel Additive: Quart (32oz)

Opti-Lube is known to provide the best diesel fuel additives on the market. After taking our customers suggestions into account, one thing became apparent, we NEEDED an emergency type product to cut through Gel and Ice in cold weather emergencies.

Fuel gelling in the winter is every diesel owners nightmare and we can all make mistakes and forget to put in our Opti-Lube XPD or Winter when we should. Now you can rest easy knowing that Opti-Lube has your back with Gel Melt!  Put one on your shelf for "just in case!"

Gel Melt Treatment Rate: Minimum of 1 to 400 (1 ounce per 3.3 gallons of fuel) 
-For 10 gallons, use 3 oz or more 
-For 20 gallons, use 6 oz or more 
-For 40 gallons, use 12 oz or more
-For 60 gallons, use 18 or more 
-For 80 gallons, use 24 oz or more


Gel Melt Product Sizes: 
(1) Quart treats up to 100 gallons of diesel fuel 
(1) 1 Gallon treats up to 400 gallons of diesel fuel


Gel Melt Use Notes
To De-Ice Frozen Fuel Filters:
If fuel is 'liquid' in the fuel tanks, but engine won't start, remove fuel filters and fill with 50% Gel Melt and 50% fresh diesel fuel. Reinstall fuel filters. Start Engine. Add Opti-Lube Winter or XPD All-In-One as directed to prevent gelling.
To Reliquefy Gelled Fuel:
Add approximately 1oz of Gel Melt to every 3 Gallons of fuel in the tanks. Remove fuel filters and fill with 50% Gel Melt and 50% fresh diesel fuel. Reinstall fuel filters. Start Engine. Let engine idle to warm up fuel system. Add Opti-Lube Winter or XPD All-In-One as directed to prevent gelling.
To Remove Water & Prevent Fuel Filter Icing:
Refer to treatment rates to determine the amount of Gel Melt needed to add to fuel. For Biodiesel blends containing a maximum of 20% biodiesel (B20), add two times the amount of additive listed.

    1/10th the cost of other sites

    Was just browsing around for this hose and saw that another diesel performance site wanted $100 bucks for the same thing!

    Early '99 came factory with this, later years don't :-(

    My 'E99 has this hose, and the Serp replacement took minutes. I purchased this to swap for the through hose while I had to take it all apart to swap the failing Serp on my '01. Ordered another setup to change my dad's '02 to simplify future maintenance.

    Vehicles should have shipped with this

    I can only imagine the fun and excitement you would experience road side trying to replace a snapped belt with the standard radiator hose. This will make that a 5 - 10 minute job should it ever occur.
    It is such a simple and inexpensive fix you just ask yourself, "WHY FORD? WHY!"

    No guess work, it is what it is. Won't find a better vendor!

    Don't ask why

    while scratching your head about the OEM upper hose routing THROUGH the serpentine belt. I've got no answer to that but this hose fixes that problem and routes AROUND the Serpentine belt. Sweet baby Jesus.
