    Quote from rhjanes: “I put in some Anti-Gel in my diesel truck before our arctic weather arrived. I also had it plugged in. I drove my 2008 Mustang this weekend. Today I needed to take the truck. It tossed all sorts of warnings and set the "check engine" light. "Low Fuel Pressure" "Reduced Power" and the "Need to Operate above 30 MPH to Blow the gunk out" messages. I drove it for a bit and it smoothed out and started running better, going over 30 fine. But the Check Engine light stayed on. I plu…
