WAY TO MUCH DIESEL KLEEN!

You only need 9.6 Ozs (MAXIMUM) of Diesel Kleen per 30 Gallons of fuel or 1/3 of a Oz for every gallon! Remember that PS products are solvents. There are cleaners and certane boosters. The is very little if any lubricants in PS products.

2 Cycle Oil

A good quantity is 1 oz of oil for 1 gallon of fuel. Or 32 Ozs (1 quart) for a full tank of fuel.

I did that myself some months back with PS. I was definitely using too much. Now I use a litre of 2 stroke per fill and only the recommended amount of Howes.

wish someone would do the math for me how many differant tanks are there for the dodges between teh gen ones and gen three's? 34 gallon, 26 gallon and..? can't someone just make an easy post like:

34 gallon tanks = Xoz of PS and Xoz of 2 cycle
26 gallon tanks = Xoz of PS and Xoz of 2 cycle

Anyway, this would make things so much easier.

Problem seems to be the mass amount of differant additives on the market and each persons individual experience with each type and amount of each type. I have been using 16oz of PS (the white bottle) and 8oz of MMO. I planned to swap from MMO to 2 cycle oil for either the next fill up or the one soon after. According to this forum, 16oz of PS is to much...according to other forums it's just right. PS has lubricant in it, how much I don't know but regardless it's more then ULSD and there for, I see no problem in using a slightly higher amount. If I am using to much PS, whats worse, running a full tank with nothing but ULSD or slightly more then this forums recommendation of PS with slightly less recommended 2 cycle? It seems to all come down to one popular persons vote for every forum I have checked out and this confuses the hell out of the rest of us.

personally i think it's a crap shoot.
all of the companys that make ad's have smart people working for them.
when they put directions on the bottle they are not doing that to hurt themselves.
i say follow the directions.
once used mmo also but now the 2 stroke, aprox. 1 qt per tank.
watch were i get fuel and every filter change it really still looks ok.
filter about every 5 thou.
no pro just listen to them, good luck.

26 * 0.32 = PS Amount and 34 * 1 = 2 Cycle Oil Amount

34 Gallons = 10.88 Oz of PS and 34 Oz of 2 Cycle Oil
26 Gallons = 8.32 Oz of PS and 26 Ozs of 2 Cycle Oil

That's on good reason why I keep a calculator in the center console with my fuel log book! Makes it really easy to figure my MPG's, oil amounts, etc...

is it safe to use the Wal Mart (super tech) OUTBOARD 2 stroke oil, thats all we have at our local wal mart and i bought 1 16oz bottle of it tonight and poured it in....if its not the stuff i should use i will discontinue it, but i figured id try it. Let me know if the Super Tech outboard is ok to use or if i need to find the universal super tech 2 stroke!

CumminsCrazed,
You should be just fine with the outboard kind. It's pretty close to the other, the only difference is a few more additives to cope with water and oxidation (both found in outboard conditions). In a diesel system, those minor additives will only help your system stay clean and rust free. Hope this helps.
