Btu Content Of Diesel Fuel
interesting post, Whitmore. Can you advise or even guesstimate how many BTU's are in diesel fuel spiked with WMO or 2 stroke oil? I guess it would depend on the mix ratio of the WMO, so lets say 20% just for simplicity. TIA
STATUS? BTW, why'd you change yer screename from WHITMORE TO WHIT???
Folks get to thinking Cetane is the way to go.Sure cetane will give better results than regular diesel.However a fuel containing more BTUs like ATF or WMO mix at 20% will make it fly.For one reason lubing of IP,and injectors reducing friction,two the higher BTUs.Ever used wmo to start a brush fire?Man it gets hot enough to burn green wood.

Forget about ATF- it is not made to be burned.
Waste Motor Oil does no good on your fuel system. Contaminats (smaller than 2 microns - like soot will damage your Injection pump over time)
If you are able to say there are more BTU's in waste motor oil or ATF I would like to know the amount and the source.

Deezel Stink3r makes a great point, your releasing tons a noxious grap fumes that are no good for you or your truck, If you want more BTU's just go with WVO, its free and natural. Also your motor will puurrrrrrrrr.
