ok whats the 2 cycle oil thing?
whats it for?
how much do you use?
is it just to lube up orings and stuff or does it do more?

 

The 2 cycle oil thing is mainly to lube the fuel system and make our injector pumps last longer. What it does is it adds lubrication to the fuel, which has been taken out by processing/manufacturing of diesel fuel, as mandated by Federal Law.

When I fill up my truck, I use 1 oz to 1 gallon. By this, I look at how many gallons I put in and that is how many ounces to be put into the tank, 16gal:16oz. It does lube things up a little better and it is also made to burn.

So, in general it does lubricate everything better, it also gives some peace of mind, due to the better lubrication of the fuel.

Hope this helps.

 

cool thanks for the help. does it make the truck smoke any worse?

 

No, not really as there is so little that is put in.

 

cool im gona start doing that. iv alread had a injector pump fail and i was not happy at all

 

The SuperTech 2 cycle oil in the blue bottle from Wal-Mart has been found to be the cheapest and it has all the necessary components for us. I think it needs to have TC-W3, those are the letters/number that you need to know.

 

cool. thankx alot man.

 

Before you start putting snake oils in your truck, I would check fuel pressure at the pump. You may have a faulty lift pump. You know what 2 stroke oil is good for? Chain saws. You know whats good for a VP powered truck? 12+psi at WOT. In all seriousness, double check your pressure and make sure you're not going to have to do your LP again anytime soon.

 

i didnt have problems the first time. i had 235000 miles on the stock pump. think it payed itself off. and in the end it wasnt my injector pump it was a brokin wire. you can never be to carefull so if oil helps me aswell as 12+ psi im gona do it

 

I can tell a big difference in sound. The engine seems to run much smoother with 2 stroke oil added.
