    LSJr tests and discusses DexosD babymax oils

    I am looking at 50+ branches worth of sample data every day and we have some but not all 13L & 16L showing elevated levels of silver. Since most units only have 1 sample so far it is impossible to draw any conclusions. I'd be interested in seeing 3 or more consecutive results from the same user...

    Thread for photos that 100% do not violate any Terms Of Service, not political, not lewd, no gas price pics etc.

    Physically no difference to the 715, other than the decal on the hood. And the price is north of 1.5M CAD .... ugh I have a note on my monitor to post a picture when we get one in the yard.

    4.1L L6 OHV Oil Question

    That is a low power, low RPM truck engine. 10w40 will be fine in that engine. If you have any questions on it's past history then Valvoline Restore and Protect is the new superstar oil. 5w30 would suit that engine just fine as well.

    Overfilled from the factory?

    Part of the PDI is to check all fluid levels. Safe levels on the dipstick have some level of interpretation depending on the tech doing the PDI. Being slightly overfull is no issue, being 50% over full is.

    Heavy Truck Driveline U-Joint Requires Grease Spec 0-634-B (1%-3% Moly)

    Imagineers not Engineers :D Most important thing is to actually use your grease gun. Our shop runs through pallets of grease every year, and the majority is what the company calls multipurpose grease. It is used in bearings, bushings and u-joints.

    Has technology failed you today? List the ways and how often it happens to you.

    We have a networked printer at work that needs the Office Space treatment. Need to print a pdf? This morning, no, but yesterday it was fine. But the other salesman can print with no problem. Oh now it has a paper jam? No it just wanted me to open the cover. IT team logs in, looks around and says...

    Need thick oil? 40w70

    Well it turns out that it is an iron head 454 with a 3/4 race cam. (translation blaa bla bla race parts in a stock compression smog engine makes me sound like I know stuff). I bet this engine never sees anything near 5000 rpm so the cheapest 10w30 will be fine in this application. I will not...

    Predator 2000w break in with oil particle pictures and oil temperature test.

    What is the reason your are running 2 stroke oil in a 4 stroke? Even at 100:1 ... I am wondering what you are trying to prevent or accomplish?

    Need thick oil? 40w70

    One of my customers asked me if I would be able to source this for his drag car. 40w70 race only. Probably need a separate engine just to run the oil pump. :ROFLMAO: Link below to the information page. https://www.atlanticoil.com/oil/race-blend-70/

    GM expanding dexos D approved oils

    What you are looking for is the wildly out of whack numbers. If your iron shows as 2, 2, 4, 3, 2, as an example then the differences are minor and could be the machine's tolerances or other factors. What you should be concerned about is the sample that suddenly shows iron at 42 or some way out...
