ok so my vp44 went out and the fricken core is bad so i am now running a vp44 that has been up'ed to run the new low sulf diesel and i have been running diesel clean but i was told that i should run atf and i was just woundering what you run your self.

 

I dont run atf because of the friction additives in it. I do run 2stroke oil and power service though.

 

OOOOOOoooooold School Mechanics used to say "Use ATF in yer Diesel Fuel".
Things were a lot different back then.

AFT now has lots of additives to prevent burn-off, and prevent clutch discs slipping.
NOT what you would want to add to your engine or fuel system to make parts slippery or keep your combustion chambers clean.

There are many, many diesel fuel additives on the market designed to burn, and to make parts move when they're supposed to move.

 

Do not use ATF!! Not good!! Use Howes, or TCW-3 2 stroke oil, or better yet run a blend of bio diesel.

 

make sure you use ashless tcw-3 2 stroke oil.walmart sells pretty cheap by the gallon

 

I too JUST started thinking about this and am going to use TCW-3 from WM along with some PS.

I'm thinking 12oz and 4oz unless someone tells me I'm wrong!
