I guess ur the expert though

Has anyone run it in a Powerstroke? I would be curious to see. Most of the posts seem top be from the Cummins guys.

I started running 2 stroke oil in my 92' yesterday. Seems to be doing the job. I think the right thinking is there in running 2 stroke. Gonna try it in my 04.5' when i fill it up next.

1oz for ever gal that’s nuts with what 2SO cost it would be cheaper to replace the fuel system when it goes bad. I don't use it wasn't made for diesels and it has some affects not always good on the balance rates on Dmaxs.

1 quart to every tank full, the walmart stuff costs me about 8 bucks a gallon, so that adds about $2.00 to each fill up. At an average of 16 miles per gallon(low average on my 02) on my 35 gallon tank I can go about 560 miles, that figures out to about .0035 cents per mile added cost or about .057 cents per gallon on a total fill up. Cheap insurance for the old VP, Hell I'd pay double that just to quiet the injectors down. Just my .02, Been running it since 04.

I stopped runing it for the winter. for what reason I have no idea. but I just started adding it again and man what a difference. power, slight MPG increase but the noise reduction is amazing.

I had my buddy try it in his D-max and he has been adding it ever since.

Well Since DB.com has a 2 cycle oil thread I better get to work here...

Here we go... First off let me post my web site links...
http://www.frontiernet.net/~mopar197..._cycle_oil.htm

Second off here is my Dyno results running 105:1 Ratio of 2 cycle oil and Diesel fuel.

Ok Gang!

I got more to report about conserning 2 cycle oil and HP/TQ numbers... Yes I got my truck on to the rollers and got to dyno it out... You all are going to be shocked with my numbers.

First off let me lay down some baseline information. You all have seen my web page on my BOMBs and MODs I've done. Ok... We all know that the 2002 Cummins SO is rated for 235 HP 460TQ at the flywheel.

Run #1 - Stock mode with Edge Comp Turned off.
228 HP - 462 TQ

Well this proves there is very little drag between the flywheel to the rear end. Also this proves there was very little change in HP/TQ number conserning 2 cycle oil. I'm using conventional Dino lubes in everything except the transmission which requires the Castrol SynTorque. But still even this number is high for HP/TQ at the rear wheels... 2 Cycle oil maybe???

Run #2 - Edge Comp turned on 5x5
379 HP - 831 TQ

Run #3 - Edge Comp turned on 5x5
381 HP - 826 TQ

Ok we all know the Edge Comp give about 120 HP on 5x5 seting but now do the math. 381 - 228 = 153 - 120 = 33 HP difference! Where did this power come from? I got no other fueling enhancements and only a BHAF and straight piped exhaust 3"... It's got to be the 2 cycle oil helping the burn.. So never the less I'm a extremely happy camper and will continue to use 2 cycle oil. I will report my ratio of mix here soon I need to pull the information from my fueling logs. I know I'm much lower that 128:1 because I added a full quart to my last fill up.

But here is my dyno sheet...


And My Award from IBF.com Job well done!

Well I'm still here just been super busy with may jobs... But I had to post up the inofrmation about my awesome number of using 2 cycle oil and just a Edge Comp... It felt good now to be running in the pack now!

But I'll always continue to work on the 2 cycle oil threads and keep updating my web site so keep checking back on my web site...

wish i had a scanner so i cld post my sheets.

i run an oz per gallon of the 2stroke. in one tank i added brand 'a 'cetane boost mixed to recomended max dose. sposed to add 7 cetane points. lost 9 rwhp and 17 rwtq using the tank with the cetane boost. change tanks with the flip of a switch. interesting find. snake oil. did bttr with the 2 stroke with no cetane boost and the 2 stroke is waaaaaaaay cheaper and lubricates too.
