Thread: Two Stroke Oil?

I run Amsoil every tank. (And also ran it with the 2 stroke), it works good for me.

Ryan: the typical dose is one ounce per gallon, or 1:128 ratio.

I've been thinking of trying some 2-stroke oil, but I'm not sure how much to add. Ryan

Complete fillup of diesel, I add a quart. When I run jet fuel, I add a quart to every 5 gallons of jet fuel. Over kill? Yep. The most jet fuel i have had in the truck at once is around 20-25 gallons. That means 4-5 quarts of 2 stroke. Didn't smoke anymore than normal. I wish the bio stations were closer. My truck is happiest running B20.

Sounds like there is no harm? thanks, Doc __________________ 04 Patriot Blue ,48re,PUTCO Box rails,chrome grille...

I also ran the Walmart brand 2 stroke oil in my truck, did it for a month or two but didn't notice any changes in mileage. I heard about Optilube and have been running it instead, their summer blend that is. It only requires 2oz per tank so, AH64ID, you wouldn't have to worry about your exhaust brake I think. I haven't noticed any mileage change with it either, but I don't have to use near as much. I drive an '04, so...

Been using WAL-MART Super Tech TCW-3 ashless 2 cycle oil for more than 3 years now, I have not improved my mileage 1 iota. My injector rattle however has been reduced significantly, in fact within the first 20 miles of first trying it, my injectors were noticably quieter. I believe the biggest advantage is the extra lube the injection pump and injectors receive, by lack of lubrication in ULSD. The 6.7 are designed for ULSD, our 5.9's.......

Call the Cummins tech line and see what they think.

I started using TCW-3 2008 in July and when I went out to AZ & CA last NOV I put 6.788 miles on a round trip my milage came up 1.9 miles better than it did the year before. I also run HOWES DIESEL TREAT AT 1oz per gal jest like the TWC-3. I have used the Treat from day one.
