Condensed answer...

To make up for the lost lubrication from running ULSD fuel. Hopefully the 2 stroke will help save the Injection Pump. Mine sounded terrible running straight ULSD, the 2 stroke quieted it down. And there are other benefits noted, do a seach or look around this forum, there's plenty to read about it.

it also makes it idle smoother, less valve chatter.

I probably don't need it since I'm usually filling up w/B20 but it makes me feel warm and fuzzy deep down so I throw a quart in every other fillup or so.
