Got out of work this morning, it was 28 degrees. I cycled the glow plugs and it fired right up like it had been plugged in. I didn't even let it warm up at all, took right off. The bucking and stumbling were gone, ran great. I noticed it is much quieter at idle as well.

That is great news! Mine just came in the mail today. I think I'm going to do an oil change with the additive as well, since I'm getting close to change time anyways.

I changed mine 2 days before I got the Rev-x, so far so good.

My morning run was better today. It did not buck like it did the day before while shifting up through the gears. I have noticed that the small flutter I was having when hot not showed has any today either.

I also checked the mileage on my last tank and it was 16.8mpg. That was with a little over 35 miles with the Rev-X but a total of 251 miles with 14.9 gallons of fuel no additives. I am going to try to do some of the same driving that I did on the last tank so that they will be comparable.

Any of the others please make a post of the Weight of you oil and if it is synthetic and about how many miles you currently have on your oil change. Also if you are running any fuel additives.

My cold start problems are only accentuated with my tunes on, so it may be even more noticeable for you. The truck runs like such a turd stock it's hard to notice an injector cutting out.
