The use of a lubricant is highly recommended, especially for long service life of pump seals when any alcohol is used in the mix. Using Marvel Mystery Oil, ATF, or other petroleum based lubricants doesn't work very well. The lube should mix with water, and/or alcohol so it doesn't stratify (separate out), and the lube must burn ash free, similar to 2-cycle oil, or top cylinder oil additive.
The best stuff out there for adding to alcohol/water mixes is the synthetic top cylinder lube made by Klotz Special Formula Products, Inc., sold as Uplon Fuel Lube KL-107. That's what is used in most of the top fuel, and alcohol funny car dragsters. Don't leave home without it...
