LSD, 2 Stroke, etc.

Is it safe to run LSD (if its found) or 2 stroke as an additive in a 6.7 with full deletes?

No DPFs, no EGR? I would assume you are fine to use whatever. Could the 2 stroke gunk up the vanes or whatever in the turbo?

Down here it is still 500ppm or higher. But just let old LSP or TxDot catch ya and see how that works out.

Just interested in knowing what is your mix or how much are you puting into your fuel. Do we just add a Quart with a full tank of fuel? Im thinking about adding some to mine when i fill up.

There was a thread floating around about additives a while back, Ill see if I can find it.


Heard that the ATF wasnt the best for it.

The process that removes the sulfur from the diesel also causes a drop in lubricity.

The ULSD is substantially more "dry" that the good #2 of old.
