You can say that you don't give a schit, but the statement above about *not doing harm to the environment* is ignorant. If you want to add some needed lubricity to modern ULSD for older diesels, nothing is better than a clean biodiesel, (not WVO or SVO), and second place would be a very small amount of TC-W3 outboard motor oil, IMO.
As per Wiki, diesel engines produce minimum CO.

'The carbon monoxide content of the exhaust is minimal, therefore diesel engines are used in underground mines.[32]'
