Ooh! 14 litres is quite a lot, they recommend no more than 5 litres and you are in with a chance. Diesel components and fuel pumps are made to a higher tolerance than petrol engines and petrol will wash away any lubricant, also the seals might be short lived. Two stroke oil won't help the flushing but may, just may help with lubrication until you have pure diesel back in the system again.

Yep 20/80! Ive spoke to a few vag ppl and they have said the vag engine will probs cope with it but will come with the usual misfires and bad starting. They have advised the same thing and to add 2T to help with the lubrication. In fact one guy said his car hasnt run as good since Any more advise would be helpful of course..

I would bung a litre of 2-stroke in there pronto - it might smoke a little but will help slow down ant damage to the fuel pump. Cheers,

i thank you sir! a crane driver i used to work with told me off adding 2 stroke years ago..... I've had 1.9 tdi 1994 audi 80.....sold at 192k still going strong and octavia 1.9 tdi 1998 sold at 187k with no problems......but i never ran them with two stroke... then i bought a 210k audi a6 v6 2.5 tdi,and the rattle on start up was worse than either of my 1.9 tdi's.....i found your wise words...i started the addition of 2 stroke quite heavily at first....im now down to 200/1 mix,and it has has made the car purrrrrrrrrrrrr words can't describe the difference.......again.i thank you! and i laugh at the anti brigade hohoho |
