2 Stroke & Biodiesel

NM12VALVE · 04-16-2008, 02:35 PM

So ive got a chance to get b100 bio at a decent price. Im wondering if i run a 50/50 mix should i still run the 2 stroke, i know that i really dont need to but this is for some of the other guys at the shop that have 24v's? Any thoughts would help

I would say with a 50/50 mix you would not need to run the 2 cycle as well. That would be preference. It would not hurt so it would be totally up to you, I say it would still help to quiet down the engine noise a little still if you run it.

50/50 - B100/regular diesel?

so basically does B50 need additional lubricating properties?

no, save your money. biodiesel does such a great job at lubricating. even if you went all the way down to B5 (5% bio) adding 2 stroke would be a waist.

A B2 blend would give you more lube than #2 with a quart of 2-stroke.
