Re: outboard oil in diesel

Posted by JDemaris on September 20, 2013 at 17:33:48 from (70.192.42.253):

It certainly cannot hurt and has been proven to help when the diesel fuel has low-lube. Do you trust every fuel seller to be putting the proper lube additives in? I don't and I don't think modern fuel makers are very concerned about older machines with rotary distributor-type mechanical fuel injection pumps.

New York recently switch all the heating oil and farm/off-road diesel to low-sulfur. The seller I buy from puts the additive heating oil if it gets sold for engine-fuel.

Tests have been done and I believe them. Buy two-stroke-cycle oil at Walmart in gallon jugs and it gives the best added lube protection for the buck. Mix at a 200 to 1 ratio.

THE RESULTS:

These results are listed in the order of performance in the HFRR test. The baseline fuel used in every test started at an HFRR score of 636. The score shown is the tested HFRR score of the baseline fuel/additive blend.

Also included is the wear scar improvement provided by the additive as well as other claimed benefits of the additive. Each additive is also categorized as a Multi-purpose additive, Multi-purpose + anti-gel, Lubricity only, non-conventional, or as an additive capable of treating both gasoline and diesel fuel.

As a convenience to the reader there is also information on price per treated tank of diesel fuel (using a 26 gallon tank), and dosage per 26 gallon tank provided as “ounces of additive per 26 gallon tank”.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition. ... [Read Article]
