Doesn't that mix (100 - 1) lubricate all the moving parts of that type of engine?

How can 2-stroke have an effect on filters?

I can understand those who own a truck with VE/VP pumps worrying buy why the rest who don't have VE/VP pumps. I talk to many diesel owners of all makes of diesel trucks every week and none of them use 2 cycle oil nor do they talk of having problems like I read about on the many Dodge & Cummins forums. How is it that the many Cummins engines in semi trucks built between 1997 & 2005 an burn 100+ gallons of ULSD per day don't report about problems with pumps or injectors reported on the many internet forums?
