@dall you'll find yer self getting 3x as much grass chopped on a tank.

I burnt up 5 gallons in one mow a couple weeks back when everything needed it at the same time. I normally try to rotate the yard seperate from the ranges and trails.

Nice job
How much?


Sent from Hoskey hilltop

Not really cheap. Took two handlebars, and the Stihl handlebar hose.

Anybody ever mix a little 2 stroke oil in with their diesel? More than one person has told me it's good for the injector pumps n such. I don't do it but curious if anybody has. Just run off road and add biobor if the jugs will be sitting awhile

Shouldn't be necessary Mike. Diesel has a lubricity spec. The removal of sulphur means we just add a Lubrizol brand product to achieve spec instead.

You mean a product is added at the refinery or end users should be adding something?

I add some atf when I think about it.

So....I need not worry about it?

At the refinery bro.
We did have trouble with some Nissan pumps when we dropped from 50ppm to 10ppm sulphur, the internal o-rings reacted with the additive, but that all got sorted pretty quick. No other dramas.

they say you can add atf to help clean injectors

Don't worry. Keep doing it if you want, it's not going to harm anything.

Yes ATF is high in detergents.
I don't care what the mileage, look in a torn down auto tranny. They're repetitively clean inside. All the crap is in the pan.

Here our off road is 15ppm or so I was told at the place I get it

And in the converter.

Might start using a little 2 stroke oil in it instead of atf. Been reading about some negative results from modern atf.

Good use for YamaScuff.

+1 On the lubricity and cetane improvers. Asphaltene conditioners are also recommended. Wouldn't recommend bio bor// algae treatment unless you have known algae contamination.
