Run one or the other but don't mix additives...

2 Cycle Oil tend to go against most other additives and don't mix well... 2 cycle oil is a cetane booster, BTU increaser. Where other additives are cetane increaser and BTU reducer...

Take a look at the ASTM testing labs grade scale and you'll see anytime you increase cetane the BTU's are reduced. Also point of reference is unleaded gasoline is about 120K BTU's...

thanks would it be better to run the 2cyle to help with lube for the the vp

Welcome to the site! That is why we put 2 cycle in for the lube qualities.

Welcome to the site, Ive used nothing but 2 cycle oil for years now as an additive with great results.-Jordan-
