I wouldn’t have thought that would work very well.
I didn’t have much to do with casting alloys during my many years flogging aluminium, but IIRC, casting alloys are high in silicon to help the material flow. Wrought alloys aren’t…
As an old stick-in-the-mud, I’ve used Plusgas Formula A for years.
It’s easiest to get as an aerosol but I prefer the oilcan shape with a spout. I had to go around a good half a dozen shops to find it last time I wanted some.
I’ve never gone into the technicalities of it but I’ve always assumed to make a two-stroke diesel it has to be supercharged. How else can you get the primary compression? With a multi-cylinder engine crankcase compression can’t be used as it is on simple engines such as the Bantam and Villiers type.
