Severe duty for these trucks is running to the grocery store, pharmacy, post office etc. These trucks are designed to work for hours at a time not 15-20 minutes.

Thank you sir.

Running it in my 08’ Silverado 4.8. Can’t tell any difference from the M1 ESP 5-30 it has run on for 16 years.

Yeah the workers that didn’t get layed off were pissed because the ones that were layed off made more money sitting at home and didn’t have to pay their rent or mortgage payments. That state of affairs is the subject for another time. Does anyone know how to tell when the engine was built by...

I use 5-40 in my 2022. Only 13k miles on the clock so can’t really give any evidence based proof but it runs well on it. At this point it runs better every day. I also change my oil and filter early. I’ve been pondering using 10-30 and have been looking at different ones but it’s still 5-40 for...

FleetGuard on my Cummins and Mahle for my Chevy Silverado.

I believe the P551018 has the same specs as the DBL7349. It’s supposedly the same Synteq material as the DBL filter. I debated using the DBL on my 22 model but the FleetGuard won the toss.

2022 Ram 2500 6.7 11,121 miles and 290 hours total on truck Out: R T6 5-40 and Baldwin BT7349 filter 123 hrs and 4843 miles In: VPBE 5-40 and Fleetguard LF 16035 filter Previous oil and filter have been in the truck since September of last year and I’m planning on doing quite a bit of traveling...

Walmart has it for $21.36 on the shelf. NAPA also has Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme 5-40 for $24.99 per gallon.

I would be interested to see what it looks like but I would have to order it online. Atwoods carries Rural King oils but no 5-40. Maybe they could order it. IDK

Well the Rotella T6 10W-30 is available on the shelf at my local Walmart. $23.52 online and $26.32 in the store. If it’s bought online it can be picked up at the store for the $23.52. Still never heard anything back from Shell. It also has the Ford F1 spec listed on the back of the jug.

3 quarts in 17,000 miles is nothing even if it had been run unloaded for the entire time. Being deleted it could burn a lot more and not have any effect as long as it is added when needed. Outstanding UOA. I would have changed the filter also.

I worked for 3 different freight companies for 30+ years total and we couldn’t even pick up anything used (transmission, differentials or engines) that had fluids in them. It was simply not allowed. We also hauled some class 8 engines of different manufacturers bolted to stands for shipping and...

I ran the OG XG2 ultra on the 6.4 in my 2500. The last time I looked Fram hadn’t changed the XG2’s to the new media type but I haven’t looked in atleast a year.

Scat Pack usually uses a MO899 and the 6.4 Hemis in the 2500 trucks use a MO339 which is the size of the small filter you have pictured. Lots of vehicles use the PF 48, XG 10060 sized filter. Your car will be fine. My son runs the MO-899 on his 19’ model SP.
