For George, and others in the know,

Some of you know, I fuel up the Dmax out of my bulk 'gravity flow' fuel tank on the farm. I have a fuel filter on the bulk tank (always have had) and change it once a year or so. When I bought the Dmax I decided to use a fuel additive.
Thinking that it wouldn't hurt to run the fuel additive through the farm equipment as well, I put the additive in the 500 gal. bulk tank.

To my surprise, it plugged up the tank filter almost immediatly. It slowed the fuel coming out of the hose to a trickle!
Now the question is Why??
Does the additive bond itself to smaller particles that would not normally get trapped in the filter?
If we use an additive in our Dmax's is it going to plug up our fuel filter faster?
The product I use is Howes.
TIA for any insights.
