IHC had the gas/diesel recommendations for cold weather, Stanadyne additives for mix known. The use of 2stroke oil for the gas mix in winter is sometimes recommended- Cummings operator manual for Dodge pickup had some mix recommendations for weather and accidental or emergency tank fills with gasoline- 10% engine oil mix seemed to save engines, wasn't a recommendation but did work a couple incidents. Straight gas in diesel is big trouble- when I was working for dealer another dealer called for help on diesel car that had been driven from docks to dealership with gasoline in tank- the dealer prep package had the decals to put on cap and around neck saying Diesel fuel only sitting on seat. Burn top of pistons, scored cylinders, injectors ruined , pump 1/2 shot, engine siezed. Crank was still good- Peugeot 504 diesel. In this case 5 gallons of mixed fuel + oil every other fillup would probably still meet manufacturers allowed fuel recommendations. Check manuals if you feel like it. RN
