on the contrary herer forcedinduction, where is YOUR proof that it doesnt assist or help anythig in a diesel engine?? i see you telling everyone they are wrong, but you are showing us any SCIENTIFIC proof of you beign right.... so please enlighten me with your almighty wisdom (and of cour a link to a scientific study proving your argument:tu:)

:dbdrama:

How about we keep this one on topic without all the drama?

Sounds good to me, I like reading a good bit of back and forth, but I cannot stand to see the drama that comes with it sometimes.

I sure wouldn't run anything that makes any claims to be a cleaner through my fuel every fill up either. If it's cleaner then in almost every single case it's also a drying agent of some sort that further depletes the minimal lubing affect of the fuel.

FORD said, DO NOT ADD ANY ADDITIVES TO THE FUEL OR OIL ON MY 2008 6.4 PSD:humm:

well these threads are so opinion based that it's not even funny, there is no scientific proof that really supports either argument either way, oil companies aren't going to say their fuel is insufficient at lubricating a fuel system/engine, and the additive people are going to say that fuel without their additive is insufficient at lubricating the fuel system/engine, it's simple business, and the 2 stroke oil is really a far fetched idea because the 2 stroke oil people don't make it to be used as a fuel additive for diesel engines

Tell your TRUCK DEALER that you're using 2-cycle oil in your fuel & see what they tell you:humm:

they would kiss your warrenty good bye. My buddy put 2 cycle oil is his 00 CTD to see what all the fuss was about, did it make the injection system quiter...no, did it make it his fuel economy go up...no, did it have more power...no. we came to the conclusion that he just donated money to the oil company for no arperant reason:argh:. running 2 stroke is a joke. unless bosch or some injection system manufacturer did a test using 2 stroke oil in fuel to find out if it works or not we will never know. If you dont think the fuel has good enough lubrication then buy an addative thats made for diesel fuel. Thats my two cents

I will say this no truck that is newer then 2007 should run 2 stroke oil. It is not needed. those trucks were designed for the ULSD. You will run the risk of voiding your warranty.
as far as older vehicles. 95cumminsgut is correct. there is real no significant gains. just like somebody using ATF oil to clean the system. use stuff that is meant for diesels Like Marvel Mystery Oil, Stanedyne, or lucas! some of those fancy fuel additive that you buy. are Bio-Diesel based. check manufacturing date if they have one. If they don't I would worry. Bio-Diesel has a very short shelf life.
I will admit I have run 2 stroke oil in my powerstroke will never do it again. It is a redneck Idea. I don't se a use for it now. It is your trucks. you figure it out.

I know there are no scienctific test to back up two stroke oil but i know that i have ran it in trucks and tractors and i can tell they run smoother. As far as power and fuel economy i dont really know.

Also for it being a redneck idea dont knock it. just think rednecks and hillbillies have always been creating power from something before science ever proved it. take for example moonshine used for racing
