Default Adding ATF In My Diesel Fuel

I read on all kinds of forums of peeps using ATF as a fuel additive and it bothers me alot...........sometimes I lay awake at night because of this

Just a warning on using ATF in your diesel fuel. The modern day ATF's have friction modifiers that are not made to burn. ATF can also lead to premature failure of the injection system. Using ATF is from the old days with mechanical injection systems and ATF didn't have the additives and modifiers like todays ATF.
