In Reply to: Transmission Oil Mixed With Diesel Fuel? posted by MT Puller on July 06, 2011 at 21:49:16:

I have a friend who was an Allis Chalmers dealer for over forty years and he swears by putting a quart of ATF in a tank of fuel.
ATF has an affinity for water and it will remove water from fuel. It also has lubricating characteristics and will lube the pump.
I believe that adding a quart of oil or ATF does not diminish the fuel's ability to produce power,it increases it.Adding oil is adding potential energy,if you ever threw used motor oil on a brush fire you will know the explosive potential energy it can generate,thus in the combustion chamber it is more potent. I would like to hear reasons why some don't believe this. The trucking industry uses large filtering systems to filter used motor oil which they add to their diesel fuel tanks,up to 10% oil in their diesel,a very economical way to get energy from waste.
I use ATF in my two diesel tractors,I also use a product called 3in1 Diesel Conditioner.This product contains a cleaning agent that cleans injectors and other components of the fuel system,kills bacteria,removes water and lubes the pump.I don't put ATF in every tankfull,maybe every third or fourth,the conditioner maybe every fifth or sixth tank..or when I think to.I don't have trouble with bacteria and water in my fuel and I've never had to rebuild a pump. Thats my story,others may vary!

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Plow and Disc - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea ... [Read Article]
