[Vwdiesel] 2-stroke oil as diesel additive

I think the 2 stroke oil is a low ash formulation in which case I don`t see 
where coking should be an issue.  Instead of 2 stroke oil which is somewhat 
expensive I think I`d be willing to try compressor oil which is also low ash 
and cheaper than 2 stroke oil.  I mix about a litre of oil per ten gallons 
of diesel when I add oil to my diesel fuel in the car for lubricity 
concerns.  In the genset I run anywhere from this amount to where I add a 
litre of diesel to ten galllons of oil.
