[QUOTE="Texasmark, post: 1414935, member: 27848"] Back in 1995 time line I was running 100 gal a day and every tank got a quart of ATF running a 1979 800 cu. in. Cummins Big Cam 400 hp engine with a million miles on it, one major. Other than a crack in the turbine external tubes causing a whistle and my uneducated brain thinking it was the $700 turbine, I had no problems with the engine. Was it the ATF? Who knows. I guess it didn't stay long enough in the tank to separate. TC-W3 is "2 cycle-Watercraft, 3rd addition" spec. Diesel and oil are both petroleum products, similar in composition; no reason they wouldn't combine. On TC-W3 and gasoline, I boated over 50 years and that was back when you put a quart of automotive 30 wt oil in a 6 gal portable can of gas and I never saw the oil separate from the gas once mixed then or now.
