ok, i will fist say, Whargoul, anyone can be an *** and pick apart every word for its literal meaning in someone's post. there is tons of factual data all over the internet that 2 stroke oil does help. plain and simple. if you want to be a literal / spelling & grammar ****, we have plenty douche trolls on the boards as it is... go join in with them and their nonsensical talk...

a 200:1 ratio is proven by more than enough members on here to be a valid mix that gives enough lube to the engine to quiet it down and smooth it out. your telling me the 01 chevy i just mixed its first batch of oil/diesel into this weekend magically sensed my magical additive and magically quieted its otherwise loud as all hell injectors because my magical additive hit the magical quiet down button on the injectors? i call B.S. to you just as much as you seem to be trying to roll it around on the next guy...

for all readers... oil wont hurt your engine.. im physical living and driving proof it wont... there are TONS of memebers on here that will tell you the same thing i have... only reason "petroleum companys arnt jumping all over this additive " is because the studies will even show you... adding oil to your fuel is not EPA compliant... so no... i dont foresee the fuel company adding things to their fuel that would then make their product non compliant to be ran on the roads.... im just sayin though...

as for "not being able to provide a direct link" to the study i was referring you to where it is PROVEN via science that 2 stroke oil works.... well... here is the PDF... item #7 is the good ol' 2 smoker oil.... go ahead and report back what it said #7 did.... im sure the last time i read it, it said "improvements" next to it... nothing about it harming a darn thing.

The lubricating properties of ULSD has been a concern for OEMs for a while now...here is some info from Bosch from 2002:

http://www.arb.ca.gov/fuels/gasoline...22003bosch.pdf

Even Cummins filtration came out with a fuel filter with a built in fuel additive.
Fleetguard unveils fuel filter that automatically doses lubricity additive | Diesel Fuel News | Find Articles
http://www.cumminsfiltration.com/pdf...es/LT15200.pdf
And even went so far as to take it to the SAE:
The Development of an Optimized Slow Release Lubricity Enhancing Fuel Filter


By the by, they mention HFRR is a proper method to measure lubrication properties of diesel fuel. So while the dieselplace study is far from bullet proof, it at very least provides evidence that two cycle oil does improve the situation and between that, the responses of forum members all over the place and my own experience it is enough for me. Obv. not enough for some but hey that is cool too.

so your saying 2 stroke wont do nothing at all for anything
You dont watch you boost gauge??

I do and if i see it droping off i know to check over some stuff to see why it is dropping off. With out it i would never know i was losing 5psi of boost for what ever.

For a 35 gallon tank, that means he needs to add at least 3qts of 2-stroke oil per tank before there would be any measurable (non-psychological) benefit.
That would be, if 2-stroke oil actually blended correctly with diesel (it doesn't).
Sounds like you could pick a fight with yourself . Your just digging yourself a deeper hole.

Why? Diesel provides all the lubrication your fuel system needs and it does nothing good for the engine.
First off I don't give a **** what it was designed for who says it won't mix with diesel your full of **** because it does mix. And If you think pump diesel has enough lubricant in it then you must have fell and hit your head

Only if you're getting it for free, or maybe $.50 a gallon! Diesels WILL run on oil you know?

Who has an EGR!!!??

I've used 2 stroke in every diesel I've owned and only had one injection issue, and that was right after i bought my 6.9, which was right after they switched to ULSD.
