I think 2 stroke oil I think is good enough I would think would do the trick, I just switched back from power service because I don't need the antigelling since its getting warmer everyday and my truck is running better too. I wouldn't run used engine oil as a Lubrication, I hope you are filtering it real good.

I love the sound of the old mechanicals also and you doesn't quite it too much you will probably need to shut your truck down when ordering at the window regardless...I swear window clerks need to get better hearing... but there something to be said about cheap insurance. Pump lubrication is a must with ulsd.

yeah 2 stroke oil does the trick for me. 1oz per gallon and the idle is quieter on mine and I picked up some mileage.

yeah drive thru's are a must to turn off the rattle traps as my neighbor calls them. if the lady is rude and the drive thru you can always smoke her out too.

Believe it or not, 2 stroke oil is good for anti-gelling also.
That's what I was told.

I will quite it down a little bit you will still hear the engine going down the road, (sounds great) You should get a little better mileage, not much though. But with fuel prices were they are at any little bit helps.

The best thing you can use for lube that is if you can get it is 2% Bio.


Alcorr,

My self I have yet to see proof that 2 cycle oil when added to diesel fuel is works as an anti gel.

JMHO
