how does the blazer run on wmo

 

[jeeplvr247]

Some people run a wmo/diesel blend without a problem but I have always figured that they didn't write "diesel fuel only" on the dash out of boredom so I pony up the extra dough and buy the diesel. Just my two cents worth

new IP=400$
Russian Roulette if you ask me.

The injector pump won't like it at all.

 

[WARWAG]

How about ATF?

 

[jdeoliveira74]

I have been doing a ton of research on this. From what I have found the IP pump needs the lubricity that the new diesel fuel doesnt give it. As long as you heat it to the correct temp 170 degrees at the injectors you should be good to go. I hear it runs quieter and smoother! I hear atf smokes like a bi*&h

I add atf to my fuel about a quart to every 5 gallons . but i also have a good supply of used atf. it helps a little and it has been discused on here in other threads about mixing your fuels. you need a blenders liscens to do this (i dont have one just running on luck) at least thats what i have been told. but the 6.2 injection pump wont like wmo or wvo .it is to thick on its own.

50 % WMO has worked for me, filter, filter, filter, then add a block heater.

In response to the original question.

Diesel and oil are close to eachother. Oil has more btu's.
Dump in in your tank.
Start your vehicle
The end

Is that the end of your engine or the end of your thread?

filter, filter, filter

This.

Waste products have that name for a reason, they need to be judiciously filtered.

Dont run it leave it for me 6.2 on oil 43 mpg in 1031

 

[pgwaldner]

I run it mixed with diesel. Helps lube the system not that ULS diesel is all that is available. It does run stronger with the WMO but you can smell the difference when behind it. Just make sure it has NO water in it. Technically taxes have already been paid on the oil when it was bought, I am using it as an additive just like any other fuel additive (ie: wynn's, stp, octane boost, cetalyne boost, etc.)

 

[docfarmall]

Sure dose run smoother

It might have had sales tax on it when bought but road use tax was not paid on motor oil .

Up to 50% in the summer, and 30% in the winter have been no problem for me.

Runs smoother and quieter in fact.

Just filter it well.

 

[tjmilitary]

Hey doc u runnin just straight wmo for the 43 mpg?

 

[kipman]

I have a get of jail free card, sent the State of Ohio the road tax for x amount of non taxed fuel I use per year, now would love to get pulled over and have my tank dipped.

I know that when you run wvo you have to be worried about the freezing point of it. do you have to be as concerned about in wmo?

6.2 on wmo...?

how does the blazer run on wmo

I guess I was diesel green at some point in my life.

dmilkman589 Check this out.

The same engine is in a M-1008, M-1009 and a M-1028.

A GM Diesel 6.2 is a diesel engine, not a multi-fuel. I fill up with diesel and 1 quart of 20/50 MO to help lube the fp. This engine is and was designed to run on diesel fuel not ATF, UMO,E-85, or any other fuels.

After all it's your truck and you will do with it as you see fit. IMHO, I would only use a fuel recommended by the manufacture.
