The B5 should give you plenty of lubricity, try not using the 2 cycle and see if your mileage drops. You could always start using it to re-gain mpg, but I don't think you'll beat the B5 for lubrication with 2 cycle.

im sorry it had been a while since i thought about it. 32oz to a tank should be 50:1 if i did my math correctly. i still prefer using it over diesel kleen and well all others it is easier to get and works well

I'm not knocking you, Lubbock. If it works for you then thats all that matters. In fact I got my best mpg hand calc'ed a few months ago, low 16ish hiway with the small bottle of Stihl 2 cycle I had left over from when I had my company truck, with DK added also. I just did it kinda for a test, and if I didn't run the B10 I would be using 2-cycle also.

I think a lot of the MPG differences between our single rear wheel trucks has to do with tire pattern. My truck gets 16 +- .2 MPG running around the Upper Perkiomen Valley and a run down your way on friday nights to Egypt Rd. When I travel the TPK, and interstate doing 68 MPH I get a average of around 19.7 running max tire pressure.
