iv just read this on the transit forum and thaught it would be of interest to a lot of folk on here and i am going to carry out my own test this month to see howe it runs , what do you recon ?????
i found this with a google search: http://www.freel2.com/forum/topic878.html The first message explains the (possible) benefits of adding 2stroke oil: To all interested: due to the pollution control measures of the EC diesel-oil is nearly sulphur free and contains up to 5% of bio-diesel. Sulphur has the property to grease the high pressure injection pump and the injectors. Without sulphur, the reduced greasing property of the new diesel has already shown negativ impacts on the long-term stability of the injectors and the high pressure pump. The pump manufacturers have tried to react by lining the moving parts of the pumps with teflon or other suitable material. However, the long term stability is still not achieved as with the old (sulphor contained) diesel. The engine-research centre of a well known German car manufacurer has conducted some long term tests of diesel additives to find out whether any one of them will have an impact on the long term reliability of the diesel engine components. This introduction to explain were my information comes from. The results of this research: any diesel additive of any manufacturer presently on the market is not worth the money! BUT: 2-stroke oil, which we use in our motor saws, lawn mower or in 2-stroke motor engines has shown to have an extreme positive impact on diesel engines, if such 2-stroke oil is added to the diesel in a homoeophatic dosis of 1:200. In practical terms: 0,300 litre of 2-stroke oil into the 70l diesel tank. The 2-stroke oil will be absorbed by the diesel (emulsion) and grease every moving part of the high pressure pump and the injectors. Besides this, the 2-stroke oil will keep the diesel engine clean, as it burnes cleaner as the diesel itself. In other words, the 2-stroke oil has a much lower ash-content as diesel, when burned. This proven fact delays the DPF (diesel particulate (soot) filter) to clogg, and the "burn free" process of the DPF will be much less. One more information: in Germany we have to present our cars every 2 years to the TUV -Technical Supervision Organisation - who will check, amongs others, the pollution of petrol and diesel engines. The measured cloud-factor of a diesel engine without use of 2-stroke oil has been 0,95. The same factor with the use of 2-stroke oil has been 0,47 - reduction of nearly half of the soot particles. Besides this, the use of 2-stroke oil in the diesel will increase the milage by 3-5%. On german forums i found treads with over 50 pages on this argument...: http://www.auto-treff.com/bmw/vb/showth ... did=156131 (german) http://www.auto-treff.com/bmw/vb/showth ... did=156131 (german)

This is a forum full of petrol heads and you're trying to convince us that diesel with a splash of oil is the future?!

makes sense fella, I used to add it to my REO truck, this was an 8 ltr multi fuel engine. It was designed to run on almost anything and used by the american military in Viet nam . I used get contaminated fuel (mixed petrol and diesel, due to people putting petrol in a diesel car and vise versa) free from a recovery firm. It was usually 40% diesel and 60% petrol, so I added 3 ltrs of 2 stroke oil to 50 gal tank and it ran fine. In fact it was the cheapest vehicle to run that i've ever owned, Free fuel, free tax (historic vehicle) and £78 a year insurance, fully comp any to drive, and did'nt need an MOT.
