I was talking to an old mechanic who specializes in diesel engines (marine, farm, transport trucks) he told me that the best thing for diesel engines is to add two cups of transmission fluid to 500 gallons of diesel fuel. He has recommended this to many diesel engine owners, the owners swear by this and testify to the smoother running of their engines, the theory behind it is because of tighter emmision controls the fuel companies have removed some of the products which keep the fuel pump and injectors lubricated, the small amount of tran fluid will lube all moving parts which come in contact with the diesel and any water in the diesel will not cause rust to form. Has anyone heard of this ?
