WMO as an additive

[REBELHIGHBOY]

I work as lube tech a local quick lube place and i can get my hands on as much oil as i want. I was just wondering because people keep saying the new diesel we have to run on the road is "dry" and might not be to heathly for these old trucks. I was thinking if i could add a small mix of WMO to replace the dry of the new fuel.

Mostly seeing if anyone is doing this and what is your mix. I have read the posts of the guys running high mix of the WMO, thats not what im going for im more looking at the WMO as a free additive to extend the life of my fuel system and the life of my truck

Properly filtered you could run a quart to a gallon of WMO and or WATF every fillup. With no problem at all.

i would see no problem as long as it is filtered. my truck runs better on a mix, it helps take up the worn out tolerances in my injection pump raising the pop pressures back up. at least that is the theory i am running with.

I run filtered WMO 60/40 during the warm months. No issies. Our old 6.2 runs on almost straight WMO in the summer.

Atf is good for em too. Run it.

Make sure you filter it good and make sure the outside temps are ok.
Unless you have a heated tank & start on "clean" diesel and switch over to wmo.

A quick tip is to mix the WMO with diesel prior to filtering, It reduces the filtering time drastically adn you can check the consistancy of the fuel your putting into your tanks.

when its cold ive been running 3 gallons to a tank and was 10 degrees the smorning worked fine but by adding oil you will get better milage from it too works nice kinda quiets the motor down a bit too so its a ++
