I've had my first deuce for about 1 month now and love it. I have experimentally run some diesel and hydraulic fluid and it has run fine.
My source for cheap (nearly free) hydraulic fluid offers good clean stuff that is very clear and requires a little filtering. So I am entused about using a mix of diesel and cheap hydaulic fluid.
With winter comming up, I am concerned what the hydraulic fluid would be OK in the colder temps. I live in rural western NY, and it can get consistantly below freezing for long spells.
Will hydraulic fluid remain viscus enough in the cold to run in a deuce?
If not would mixing with gas, diesel, or additives help?
Do you guys use additives like diesel 911 in the winter for prevention?
Thanks up front for any help.
