I might have to give it a try then. What concerns me is the lack of lubrication. As we move to low sulpher diesel, the lubricating qualities of the fuel are lessened. The is one of the things that gives the diesels such great engine life.
Acetone is a solvent, not a lubricant. It should lessen the lubricating qualities even further causing more engine wear.
The OVR drivers and hot shot operators I've talked with are adding 30 WT oil to the fuel because their engines are wearing out in about half to two thirds the time they were.
A replacement motor for a one ton is around $10k installed. Ten grand buys a lot of fuel...
I have a rolling diesel powered fleet of about 150 trucks, you want extra lube, add light kerosene, not motor oil.
kinda like running 2-cycle fuel ....... I had one guy tell me it's not such a bad thing to run a little oil in your gasoline....but I wonder about the catalytic converter. Anyway, I always siphon the 2-cycle gas out of my boat (50:1) and run it in the riding lawnmower. This is all it runs on - it's all I use. Seems to run good to me.
