[QUOTE="TyCorr, post: 108358, member: 1451"] The reason Id say 50/50 is the oil is thicker than diesel and may be harder on the inj's. Ive heard that on here anyway. I know people that run the oil straight. But they dont care about ruining inj's as far as I know. Which is kinda backwards to me. The compressor oil I dont know anything about. Compare it to motor oils of known viscosity/weight. If its similar and a dyno based oil, burn it! Here's a tidbit of information you may find interesting. Last summer I was running wmo most of the time @50/50. I developed a fuel leak and parked the truck as I didnt have time to get at it and didnt wanna smell/drip fuel everywhere I went. It was around Nov when I parked it. Months passed, fast forward to January, I fixed the leak and had to soak the fuel bowl lid gasket in hot water to get the lid to seal. It was that cold!! Single digits. The fuel/oil mix was black as coal but I added a little antigel previously(just dumped it into the tank, 3/4 full) and the stuff was FINE!! Not any thicker than it was in 90* weather. I believe this flies in the face of conventional wisdom on wmo. Its really just as simple as dumping oil in your fuel tank and then adding diesel. Ive heard people say that they added the oil to half or three quarters full tanks of diesel and it promptly sank and killed the motor:shrug: Doesnt sound plausible though cuz Ive ran on MUCH HEAVIER concentrations than that. Nearing 100%. All Ive got buddy!:D [/QUOTE]
