    30w Non Detergent vs. 2 cycle oil

    Josh posted a post in a topic in 2nd Generation Dodge 12 Valve Powertrain
    I had forgot about Centinel, thanks for the remider & the 5%.... curious though now that you mention less than 5% I like the idea of running 30w HD better, but I know the detergents can cause hot spots on the piston faces (thus I have always used ND....However Centinel would inject a multigrade HD oil into the fuel, so in theory I should be good yes? I may be over thinking this one as I dont think 1qt of ND to every fill up will cause sludge / geling issues.. but I still like the idea of 30wt HD vs. ND. My fuel filters always come out clean (change every 10K).... Thanks.. Josh

    30w Non Detergent vs. 2 cycle oil

    Josh posted a post in a topic in 2nd Generation Dodge 12 Valve Powertrain
    New here, but not new to Cummins engines. I have searched so if I missed something my apologies. Does anyone have data concerning adding 30wt Non-detergent oil vs. 2 cycle oil to diesel fuel? I have read & read about 2 cycle oil in diesel fuel, but not much info on 30wt. I am wondering if 30wt has similiar benifits other than pump lubrication etc... I have always run a quart of 30wt non-detergent at every fill up. Injectors are clean, truck runs great & quiet (223,500 miles...12V NOT stock since 15K :biggrin:). Anyway... I know back in the day 30wt was used as premix, but things have improved... I like the 30wt b/c it's cheap per qt ($1.27) & easy to buy & fits great in my door pannel.Thanks in advance for the info!
