Here is part 2 where Watson says Engines are vaporizing diesel quickly, about 100 to 200 miles, specialy squirted jet under piston equiped engines.

That is NOT an Amsoil spokesperson. He is a dealer, just as I am. He's not always wrong, but sometimes I think he just likes to hear himself talk.

Yes, SOME of the fuel can likely be boiled out, but there's going to be plenty that's not.
The bit that's left is clearly likely to be the heavy end, so the oil will be shear thinning (VIIs), oxidative thickening, soot thickening, and fuel either thinning or thickening depending on the fuel and the internal engine temperatures
Great post!
Pablo - does Amsoil actually state that 9% dilution is not a problem or is it this guy's opinion with nothing to back it up?
