Yeah I can hear you say that but that's beside my point which was the original agenda by mixing fuel in the oil towards the end of BoB. If you know anything about engines and oil you also know that dilluted oil, or thinned out with petroleum, decrease its lubrication capabilities up until the temps get high enough to ventilate the petroleum. It was a compromise to improve reaction time. Interesting to hear that it became standard with a mixing tank on German aircraft, do you have any references on that?
