Diesel Fuel Additives
In 2009 Manual:
Diesel fuel conditioner
Additives that will improve fuel cetane numbers may be used to verify/enhance fuel quality. Use Motorcraft Cetane Booster & Performance Improver, PM-22-A (U.S.) / PM-22-B (Canada) or equivalent. The customer warranty may be void from using additives that do not meet or exceed Ford specifications.
Do not use alcohol based additives to correct fuel gelling. This may result in damage to the fuel injectors/system. Use Motorcraft Anti-Gel & Performance Improver, PM-23-A (U.S.) / PM-23-B (Canada) or equivalent. The customer warranty may be void from using additives that do not meet or exceed Ford specifications.

In 2014 Manual:
Note: This ultra-low sulfur formulation is designed to meet the emissions standards for the 6.4L engine and is backward compatible as well (i.e., can be used in Ford 6.9L, 7.3L, and 6.0L diesel engines).
It should not be necessary to add any aftermarket additives to your fuel if you use a high quality diesel fuel that conforms to ASTM industry specifications. Aftermarket additives can damage the fuel injector system or engine.
Use Motorcraft® cetane booster or an equivalent cetane booster additive if you suspect fuel has low cetane. Use Motorcraft® anti-gel & performance improver or an equivalent additive if there is fuel gelling.

Additives with alcohol will emulsify water and fuel which will damage HPFP and injectors
There is a "Diesel Kleen' formula that clearly states 'no alcohols of any kind'

The statement 'no harmful alcohols' means there is alcohol- do not use
