DIESEL FUEL + 2T OIL = Superb performance?

[Dave_GU_ACT]

Just to reignite this age old debate, 2t Self mix according to the MSDS is a mineral based additive. I have extracted a little info from that document. im about to put it in my GUIII 3.0l DI.

anyone have a picture of the bottle. or do I just ask for 2T additive

[BigRAWesty]

Castrol do a 2T In a white 1ltr bottle, square with castrol green label.
Used this stuff with Rc planes.

Imo the little which is being added (20mL/ tank) would be doing fark all..

I tried black diesel a while back. I started with a 1/10 ratio, and apart from being very messy and a little more smoke when I hit 50/50, it made everything as quite as a mouse.

So imho to see the benefits of this added lubrication I think quantities need to be of around the 1\10 ratio. But then it becomes to bloody expensive

I take it you use this in the fuel as an additive

How would TCW-3 go ie outboard 2 stroke oil. Its the cheap mineral stuff, works fine in the boat motors so as an additive in a 4.2 T could there be any issues?

I personally don't, fuels these days are made to get max bang for buck and have lube additives already in them..

Not sure mate. Jump on Google and look for a tcw3 msds. Have a read threw it to see if it has any nasty properties, check the area under Fire. Properties do change once change from solid to gas..

Before i saw the light and bought a Patrol, i drove a Landrover Defender 300 Tdi. The poms have been doing this for years. My Defender has done 360,000 kms of which half of this i have used 2 stroke oil in the diesel. The motor runs brilliant.
Uses no oil.
I have also heard, but not tried, filtering your old sump oil and using it instead of 2 stroke.
Search landyzone.uk there is heaps of information on the subject.

Black diesel

I tried yesterday. Mannol 2t Universal.

Didn't see anything unusual yet. May be more than 1 to 200?

Brother's Pajero became work a little bit smoother.

Hi,

I also use 2T oil in the tank 250ml for 95l I found that the engine is less noisy and there is no more moke, my oil is Racing 2T and it's a full syntetic one. will tell you more about fuel economy later, but I don't thik it's the miracule priduct for fuel economy.

Best regards
