IMO, no need. Carbon once deposited needs mechanical cleaning not unless you're using DPF that burns the soot every regen cycle.

I use 2T to guarantee lubricity but i'm more concered with cleanliness.

High pressure commonrail works on tight clearances and were dealing about as little as 2microns and some water to destroy the fuel system. Ph belongs to the supply chain of dirties fuels, the contamination starts from materials handling - transport to storage.. I'd still go for good filtration than additives.

A friend of mine asked me what if you stopped using 2T? what are the effects and would your engine suffer for it? I was thinking that it would just revert back to its original state prior to adding 2T but I am now wondering whether there would be some other effect as well. To the gurus, care to share your expertise on this matter?

baka bumalik ulit pagkasira nung fuel float switch? lol. kidding aside. tingin ko, wala naman adverse effect sir added lubrication lang naman un 2T. meron ba dito sa tsikot who stop using 2T na?

I dont regularly use 2T. Minsan nakakalimutan maglagay. Minsan kapag naalala i just pour the 400mL bottle content in the tank kahit half pa ang fuel mark. For me, added insurance lang. We dont really know how the fuel is being made, different brands using different euro standards & additives hence varying lubricity quality.

pag nag add ng 2T sa gas station alam na na tsikoter.

A little off topic..... 2T is mainly for adding lubrication for diesel fuels. But how about the engine? I saw oil engine treatment products like STP brand. Does it increase your oil TBN? and does it prolongs the life of your engine?

Increases TBN, usually by adding ZDDP w/c is zinc. Antioxidant properties of ZDDP increase the life of engine oil.
