Can't remember, but it wasn't a trivial reason like that.

Back when i had my HDI i used a few bottles of 2 stroke on it, as others said it seemed to smooth it out Smile


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - Deangatt - 05-05-2015

This is a must do ?


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - highwayman306 - 05-05-2015

No mate, this is down to the owner. Wink

There seems to be loads of positives for adding 2 stroke in your tank, you just have to make the decision yourself. I personally would do it and I am going to soon Wink


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - Mattcheese31 - 05-05-2015

Used to do it with the last xud, bit of extra lube for the pump can't hurt to my mind Smile


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - highwayman306 - 05-05-2015

Its supposed to lower emissions, increase mpg (marginally), lube injectors and pump leading to quieter running...the list goes on. Im thinking of getting a box of Stihl-Saw shots to chuck in Big Grin

http://www.lsengineers.co.uk/stihl-2-stroke-oil-10-x-100ml.html, bit pricey really but I know a guy there Wink
http://www.lsengineers.co.uk/stihl-hp-super-2-stroke-oil-100ml.html ash free this stuff is, but high price.


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - titch - 05-05-2015

Thats the stuff i have been putting in mine for ages now its all been good, my injectors were really noisey before i started using it and i have noticed a difference they are quieter.


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - td163 - 06-05-2015

I have put my first lot (200ml) into a full tank of diesel about 5 days ago after reading up and i don't know if its just me or placebo effect but it definitely sounds smoother under load! either way I am very happy.

RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - Deangatt - 06-05-2015

I take it yous keep putting it in every week then or whenever you fill the tank?

This is the first tank I have put it in mate but from what I have read from the guys on here that use it you do have to do it every tank. Its not to bad for me I only use about 2 tanks a month.


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - Deangatt - 06-05-2015

Think it's time I started to do it aswell going to get a bottle an fill her up at the weekend


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - td163 - 06-05-2015

Good man! I am happy with how mine runs with it. Smile


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - Frosty - 07-05-2015

Im tempted to give this a try. Does it make much difference using mineral or semi synthetic?


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - highwayman306 - 07-05-2015

I read semi, but heard others saying mineral does the same...?


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - JTaylor2005 - 07-05-2015

Heard mineral burns better cus it's basically just thicker diesel haha


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - highwayman306 - 07-05-2015

Wink each to their own Big Grin


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - cully - 07-05-2015

semi lmao!!!..... that was made as it dont oil spark plugs so bad as mineral dont think you will have that issue on a diesel

the main thing to look for is the low ash! basicly so it burns with no ash residue to clog rings and other stuff


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - highwayman306 - 07-05-2015

I thought semi synth was low ash? Or most of them anyway?


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - td163 - 08-05-2015

I'm using Mineral low ash stuff Smile


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - Iceman299 - 08-05-2015

What are the effects of using more than 300ml/tank? Curious


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - Toms306 - 08-05-2015

Any brands/deals that anyone can recommend? Gonna try it in my next tank as well...

waste money and cause's smoke


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - Alan_M - 08-05-2015

Just gambled on a £4 bottle of low ash mineral oil whilst in Focus DIY. Only had about a 1/3rd tank left, so chucked in about 100ml, but it is a bit difficult to put in the filler straight from the bottle. It did have noticeable results though, less smoke, less injector rattle and hell of a lot more perkiness!


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - cully - 08-05-2015

use a coca cola bottle the end fits into the filler nice and if you fill the bottle to the lower label line its around 210ml

RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - lolsteve - 08-05-2015

Drink vast quantities of the 2 stroke oil and then piss down the filler hole.

Now i have to go out and spend £1 on a bottle of coke lol


RE: Anyone used 2-stroke oil in a HDI? - JTaylor2005 - 08-05-2015

Yeah but it's only a one time buy so the cost will spread out over the time ur using 2 - stroke oil
