Hi Pat, I always liked ATF type F used at 1qt/100gal #2D. Thats been used for the past 50yrs that I know of and lubes the injectors and pump very well. Also works well on my PSD. Do a google search for (raw) rapeseed oil (SVO) and read the University studies on using SVO upto 25% with great results. Any thing over 50% SVO caused injector and ring gumming problems. SVO added to #1D at 2% of volume would equal the lube quality of #2D with sulfer. Cummins on the OTR engines use a automatic engine oil change system with burning the used oil in the fuel with new make-up oil added thru another on board tank. My son worked for a turff company for 8yrs that burned all used engine oil in there 400 piece diesel fleet. He was instructed to dump the eniter oil change contents in at one time without prefiltering. They had no extra engine problems doing this while he was there. T_Bone
