    Adding old oil to fuel?

    Use 2 stroke, not used motor oil, the ip will not like the acids and over time you will have a cokeing issue unless you run for long periods of time, running around town will not keep the engine hot enough over a extended time frame. If you are going to run used motor oil, filter it down till...

    transfercase is stuck in 2wd mode.

    The above is ONLY true if the truck is a Marine truck, other rise being the truck has OPEN diffs, only one side will pull per axle, so the op statement could be true "TWO wheel drive"

    Towing Opinions. I think I know the answer.
