We’re on the Smart RV’er Podcast: Winterizing more than just your pipes

When most people think about winterizing a diesel motorhome, they picture pink antifreeze and plumbing lines. But if you’re driving a diesel-powered RV, your fuel system and tank hygiene need just as much attention—especially if you want to avoid gelling issues and choose the best diesel additive for RVs before temperatures drop.

We recently sat down with the team at the Smart RV Podcast to discuss the “hidden” maintenance issues many RVers overlook during the colder months—and how preventing RV fuel gelling can save you from a frustrating “no-start” nightmare when spring finally rolls around.

1. Summer vs. Winter Blends
The critical differences you need to know to avoid fuel issues.

2. Maintenance Hacks
Practical, preventative insights to maintain optimal performance in freezing temperatures.

3. Protecting Your Engine
How to combat soot and DPF pressure before they become costly repairs.
