Re: diesel engine oil as an engine cleaner

["Jim Cash" <j.cash@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have been told by various sources (engine mechanics,  oil producers, etc
that using diesel in a gas engine is completely acceptable for several
requirements.

- - sometimes the viscosity mix you want only comes in diesel.
- - you want added cleaners.


Sooo the answer to your question should be go a head and use it - and don't
worry about the time frame. Actually you might want to give it enough time
to loosen up the dirt.

You might consider running it for a a short period until it is thoroughly
black. Then replace it with more of the same and run again - repeating this
until the oil stays clean for a few weeks.

Then switch to you new oil and make sure you change the filter.
