Yes! please take TurboBill's advice! a bad u-joint or carrier bearing can cause a lot of other damage.-

As far as an additive for fuel, put a clear plastic fuel filter on it temporarily to see if it loads up with debris and rust when you do that. I would change gas stations before I would buy a water remover additive if you suspect watered down gas. I do try to run ethanol free gas when possible. It ain't the same as the old gasahol from decades ago. the mixed stuff now is crappy quality and expensive for the quality of the product, but there isn't much can be done about it.
