I ran into a guy today that said "we dont have enough sulpher in our fuel so I put a quart of 10w30 oil per tank of fuel, and it idles better and brings better economy".. Any thoughts on this??? let me know. I have a 96 12v 2wd and I am seeind 25-27 per gallon now... Qny thoughts???? Thanks

 

If you want to increase lubricity of fuel, at least use something that is designed to be burned like 2-stroke oil. Additives like powerservice also have lubricity additives built in. Additives increase the price of fueling, so keep this in mind.

I use powerservice in the winter and biodiesel in the summer. Biodiesel is very good at lubricity.

I found this to be interesting if you want to read about it:

Any oil works great. Trans fluid and hyd. oil is best but motor oil works great too. It helps the MPG and runs better. I just use filtered used oil. No need to spend money on oil for fuel. I try to throw in a few quarts per tank of fuel. I have run as much as 50% oil but it starts to smoke. My BMW powered lincoln likes to run a 50% mix and has much more power than straight fuel.

I am not sure if I would run that much oil in a 24 valve though.
