Well. It's quieter that's for sure..
Not sure it'll add any fuel efficiency but it's only done half a tank..
Well fellas the jury has returned a verdict here.
After buggering my first tank figures, bogged for two hours see happy thread, the second tank proved successful.
With 50/50 miss daisy and highway work the end result was closer to GOOD highway figures than I might reasonably have expected.
Very much looking forward to a full tank as highway driving alone.
Big thumbs up from me Cuppa!
I personally didn't notice any efficiency increase..
I actually lost 1L/100 but I have added roof bars and awning.. and from my previous figures that usually looses that 1L..
So for me initial tests are coming in not a negative but not the be all end all..
I have noticed a lot less ticking and rattle.. so in my eyes that's a bonus..
i have been keeping an eye on this topic for a while . the 2 stroke oil rarely seems to give better fuel economy , but in almost every case tends to quiet down the injector noise , which would indicate better lubrication of the injectors , which would in turn suggest a longer service life . although at this stage , how much longer would only be a guess . no one seems to have racked up big k's on a CRD whils't using 2 stroke the whole time . time allowing i'll try to work out a rough cost/benifit . what is a new / reco set of injectors worth , and then labour to fit . biggqwesty what ratio are you running , it seems mix's are running any where from 200 / 1 to 500 / 1 . it would be good to do tests too determine at what ratio would be the leanest that could be used . but i can't do that as it takes me about 8 weeks to use 1 tank of fuel normally .
I'm half way through my second tank with 2t in it. I have been putting in abut 400 ml per 90 liter tank. Right now the engine is super quiet . Haven't noticed any economy improvement or performance difference.

that's about 225-1 hodge . maybe the 4.2's need a different mix as they run lower pressures
485ml seems to be the magic number thrown around for a full tank in a GU... I run it few every few tanks, I get no better/worse economy but it sure does make the motor quieter.. And the piece of mind that gives me is enough reason to keep using it.
