using transformer oil to add to diesel fuel

[Jacques7]

Is transformer oil okay to mix in small quantities with fuel for diesel engine consumption?

@Jacques7 What brand and what viscosity?

 

[Jacques7]

caltran 60 - 30

also, is this type of oil good for any other applications besides cooling transformers?

How old is it.

Very old transformer oil might contain PCBs. You don't want to mess with that stuf if it has it, and you don't want to get caught putting it into the environment in any way.

Real bad MOJO and opening up a Panduras box of legal problems if it has PCBs.

Check with whatever governmental agency Canadian provences have in place regarding regulation of transformer oil.
