I can relate an anecdote:

I'd stopped at a truck stop for diesel fuel for my Ford F-250 with the  
6.0 engine.  At the next pump was a BIG International truck with a  
long heavy load of steel behind it and the engine hood up, so I could  
see all the interesting stuff inside.

'Got to talking with the driver and he told me his engine had just  
gone out of warrantee - at one million miles.  So I figured he knew a  
thing or two and asked him what might make my engine cough when I  
asked for a little more power on the highway, as I climbed a hill for  
instance.  He said "water in the fuel", and suggested diesel water  
remover (in a can with a blue label).

I can only imagine what the dealer would tell me, then charge me.

I'll be trying it the next time I have that happen.  (any comments  
welcome).
