    People use the 2T for lubrication as new diesel has a low lubricant in it. Extends life of component and some reports are gives better performance and fuel economy. Works well for some but not others...mixed reports

    Look, I have tried it and noticed no difference in my CRD so I probably would not use it.

    There are people out there that swear by it(especially the 4.2 guys), so try it for a couple of tanks and see how you go.

    Good luck

    HI nisspat and red92gq

    seems that it will work on a 4.2 engine but what about the zd30?

    2T is the type of 2 stroke oil you mix with regular unleaded petrol for use in chain saws etc. It is a mineral based oil, do not use synthetic based 2 stroke oils as they do not mix properly with diesel.

    Yes, sure. My old motobike used to fur on it.

    So, what are proportions mixing diesel with 2T? I own Y60 with TD42T - so should be satisfied? Are there any problems later with hygiene of fuel system. Maybe doses of this oil makes pump or injectors rotten?
    Sorry if this was already mentioned - then help me out with some link
