Sure. It is fine and we have been hearing of better mileage. I believe they are using marine grade 2 stroke and a pint per tankful. It definately helps lubrication and longevity of your engine.

i did a search on this and have heard nothing but great response and millage increase and a quieter smoother running diesel engine. it also cleans out the tank and lines. thats what i have been hearing. i would like to here some more inputs from others.

i run it i split 1 quart between both tanks i see 1-2 mpg better running it and my engin runs queiter and smoother and i have had no ill effects. the only worrie i have ever had is one time i grabed a bottle of 2 stroke oil that was a bright red collor and i was afriad of getting my tanks diped and them trying to say that i had some offroad deisle in there. althouhg i doubt it was enough to change the collor of the fuel
