Yes I use it ,after I checked the API service level "CH,CH4" ie really good stuff . No big savings but convienent can sizes.
Wife has horse and can't stay out of the place.
I wash the tractor and get its little bottom clean. then change the oil. I save the used oil in the bottles so its easy to add 1-2 qts to 10 gal. of fuel. Happy pump, happy jectos,reduced fuel consumption. I am a very good diesel merchanic and don't need the practice!!

Docdezl,
Being a newbie to diesel engines (pretty good with gas) I have heard you and some others mention that you add a quart or two of used oil to every ten gallons of diesel fuel. I'm guessing that it adds additional lubrication for the engine and peripherals.
Questions: Is this OK to do? Will it hurt anything? What are the benefits?
Thanks
Bob

Thanks for the feedback. TSC is very close to me, very convenient, I tend to be in there a lot. My dealer is pretty far, he recommends Case 30W diesel tractor oil. I was planning on using the TSC oil for the next change.

It's safe for the engine to put used engine oil into the fuel? Have you done this for a long time? Does it hurt the fuel filters?
