I'm guessing it's OK to continue adding 2cy oil along with the white anti-gel?

I've never heard of anyone having problems doing that... it does add lubricity and as long as it's a low ash, high quality oil, it shouldnt cause any bad combustion chamber or injector deposits... it is somewhat expensive compared to using something like Lucas which has the added benifits of injector cleaners...
we buy that stuff by the four "one gallon" case... much much cheaper that way...it takes about 8 gallons to treat all the bulk tanks on the ranch, each time we fill em. Auto parts stores charge about 10 bucks a quart for it, but we get it for about half that when we buy cases of gallon jugs... about 10 oz per tankfull does a good job.

Yeah I've had no probs running Walmart 2cy oil - 1 oz/gal. I was just wondering if combining it w/ Diesel Kleen would have any adverse affects.

I know this thread isn't specifically about anti-gel, but there's a thread in the 99-03 forum worth looking at.

Evidently the ULSD will gel at much higher temps than the old #2.LINK
