For those that add 2-stroke oil..

No way your gona have me chucking lawnmower oil in my CRD! There are so many quality fuel additives on the market from the likes of Cost Effective Maintenance and Responsive Engineering that deal with the low sulfur diesel and fuel lubricity issues we have in this country. I use a CRD fuel enhancer and FTC decarbonizer both from Cost Effective Maintenance and my bus runs a treat!

Not all 2- oils are the same.
oils aint oils!!
No way will I put some supa crap auto product in my car either,

but a quality oil that's another story.
marine grade 2-oil for instance is far superior than lawn mower stuff.
and from memory usually low ash, which is a down fall of the study wasn't it.

I believe putting in marine grade or synthetic 2T oils would be a mistake. Apparently it doesn’t mix so well in diesel, unlike the cheaper mineral based stuff. I use Castrol Activ 2T.

Been using moreys upper cyl lube for years and swear by that, so I'll give that a go and see.
Going by the colour its similar to cemtec diesel conditioner,
only thicker like its oil based, like moreys UCL.
oh cemtec usually about $33 and moreys $24, with same mix ratio/
But moreys claim does alot more.
hear goes, glug glug down Pat.

How much is the MOREYS DIESEL SMOKE KILLER Robo?
I just bought 1 litre of Flash Lube Diesel Conditioner for $22 from Don Kyatt's. That is used at 1000:1 ratio (1ml Flash Lube to 1 litre diesel).

It is indeed interesting. With my identical motor I noticed the difference (quieter & smoother) within the first kilometre or two after putting it in. Motor was stock & had around 160,000 on it then. Since then the exhaust, dyno & EGT has smoothed things a little more. I wonder if I would have noticed as much difference if I had tried the the 2t for the first time after the exhaust & tune?

Hi Cuppa

Mine had been Dyno tuned some time ago with 3" exhaust so perhaps not as noticeable.
Doing a fuel consumption test at the moment so will try 2 stroke on next fill and compare results.
In a separate post I said since I stopped using 2 stroke I have noticed a splatter of carbon or diesel on concrete floor on cold start ups. Also was blowing a bit more smoke than usual on the long climb on River Heads Rd where I test it. Perhaps it needs a long hard run
Ute clocked up 200,000 in same week in June as I bought it but 9 yrs later.

Delay,Been on holidays, no tv or computer just the outdoors, bloody brilliant
Moreys $24 per ltr.
at 650:1.
feed back,
slight increase in rev at idle so centane increase probable or lube factor and or both.
and 14.5lt down from 16 per hundread towing near 3 tonne caravan that has blunt nose.
impressed so far.
reduced noise, I need a new fan belt Its a bit noisy so can't comment on being quieter.
Remember thinking while I was driving it seemed to hold speed better,
compared to same Rd and load factors as previously driven without Moreys.

yrs ago,
I used petrol based flash lube ucl, all it did was make the old nissan pulsar ping.
oh and fuel doctor increased fuel consumption in a lancer by a couple of ltrs per hundred k.
Been using moreys to no ill effect, so plan keeping it that way.
