    2024 6.7 Cummins - Looking for an oil recommended

    My 18’ 6.7 CTD ran extremely well on the 15-40 Delvac Extreme. But Im using VPBE 5-40 in my 22’ and just today went through a drive through sitting in line, up next to the building and not a click or a tick.

    So much for having to use 10-30 or 5-40 and needing to be synthetic. How many miles have been with 15-40 and do you run the truck commercially ?

    Valvoline Extended Protection High Mileage 5W-30 VOA

    Maybe the HM means for “Hemi Motors”?

    MO-899 C&P

    My son runs the same oil and filter in his 19’ Charger SRT 6.4L. He’s probably getting close to 100K miles and you still can’t hear the engine running other than the exhaust.

    Dental implants - feedback needed

    I’m in the process of having 2 implants done. Started in June of this year and still don’t have teeth. The first bone graft didn’t take in 1 part and had to be removed and replaced with another 6-8 weeks wait. Just recently installed the second implant again and it will be at least another 6-8...

    Mobil 1 Delvac ESP 5w40 vs Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme 5w40 opinions

    I noticed in the UOA that I recently ran using the VPBE that it did drop viscosity from the advertised 15.3cst down to 13.6cst @ 100*C. I think the Mobil Delvac starts out around 13.8 cst. Would be interesting to see if it holds the viscosity better.

    New Super Tech 15w-40 CK-4/SN Full Synthetic HDEO VOA w/PC

    You might be on to something. The lifter and cam problems are very wide spread among newer engines also. And the new roller lifters seem to be worse for wear than the old flat tappets.

    2022 Ram 17k mi; 5.9l mi on VPBE

    We finally got some cooler weather (highs in the mid 80’s lows in the 50’s) so last fuel I bought I didn’t add the Archoil and it seems to be doing ok. Haven’t noticed any difference in EGT’s with and without. I also got fuel in a different location.

    Mobil 1 Delvac ESP 5w40 vs Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme 5w40 opinions

    I’m interested in this possibility too. I have always been a Mobil fan and have wondered about this. Anxious to see what you find out. As far as running a 15-40, there’s a spreadsheet on another forum listing the lifter and cam failures. There is only one truck listed that was running 15-40 and...

    Stellantis and horrible public relations

    It’s a crap shoot any time you go to the dealer to try to get warranty work done. I had the Y43 recall done (particulate sensor) and crawled up under the truck to check it out when I got home. They did install the particulate sensor and module but left the cable between them just hanging with...

    Out of Grade Diff Oil

    When in doubt, change to Severe Gear 75w-90.

    Stellantis and horrible public relations

    It’s just as bad on the diesel side too with all of the emissions problems and frequent regeneration and fuel dilution in the oil. Continuous problems with no solutions.

    When to refill DEF tank

    I usually let mine get down to a 1/4 tank so that a 2 1/2 gallon jug brings it up to 3/4. As long as there is some sloshing going on in the tank, it will be fine.

    Besides HPL or Amsoil, which 15-40(s) would you recommend ?

    Media shedding

    It doesn’t matter what micron the filter media is when the trash is in the center tube. Maybe good for next pass if it makes it through the bearings or pushrods or any other small orifices.

    Dodge Ram Trucks How to put tranny in "Manual" mode for upshifting?

    Hit the + button and it will show which gear it is in. Then push it again to go to the next higher gear unless it is already in 8th. In that event it will go back to “D”. With the programming Ram uses for the transmission, it may go up a gear and may not according to the rpm and load on the engine.

    2022 Ram 17k mi; 5.9l mi on VPBE

    The truck isn’t losing any coolant and I don’t use any kind of oil additive. I’ve been using the Archoil to help with the passive regens and it seems to help with that. It’s pretty common for these trucks to struggle with regen issues during hot weather and the short tripping that mine goes...
