Welcome Oilyhands, Sounds like your car is running well and its great that your being proactive with your maintainance. If you are interested in using a high detergent oil rated for diesel and gas can i suggest the XD-3 products from Esso. The 0w-30 is a full synthetic and you should be able to...

Minou -Thought someone would notice that! It was the only place i could get some good light to take the picture; back down to the basement now. Palut; if im not mistaken it is just the 0-w grades that are PAO syn. Hope this helps. Steven

Just to add to this thread here is a picture of the 2 syn XD-3 oils available here. Just changed the oil in my 98 GMC Sierra 4x4 yesterday using 3 litres 0w-30 and 2 litres 0w-40; for the winter i will use just the 0-30. I`m wondering how many XD-3 users are stockpiling?? Right now I`m at...

Triple Se7en- went with the XD3 just to try something new. Actually oil consumption was nil;no top up added. Have been using syn in the truck for the last 85,000km; but this was my first UOA on the truck. Al- the XD3 has been in for about a month now and will probably be changed at the end of...

This is my first UOA and i hope to receive some feedback from the results. Truck is a 98 GMC Sierra 4x4 with 5.7L. Truck had 191015km at sample date.5038km on oil and filter. Oh and oil was in service from Sept 25/04 to March 25/05. Lots of short trip winter driving in southwestern Ontario. The...

Hope someone in the forum can help with this. I need a x-reference for a Honda oil filter. Its a blue filter, says made in Japan, Toyo Roki, and the numbers 3T31. Oh its off of a Honda outboard motor and i would like to find the Wix equ. Anyone heard of this filter before? Thanks Steve

Hope someone can help out there with an ac filter question. Is there a PF-25 filter with a ADBV? I know that a PF-35 is the longer version and a PF-1218 is a PF-35 w/ADBV, but a PF-25 with ADBV?? And i know this has been discussed here before but is the ADBV necessary for a filter that is...

Well Roger beat me to it but worth repeating; Dowler-Karn (631-3810)has all the Esso and Mobil line. Was in there on saturday to pick up some xd3 0w-30 but there were all sold out (they could order though) and they had plenty of xd3 0w-40.I went with 6 litres of M1 0w-30. Sorry i cant remember...

It was the blue line / premium line MNgopher.

Purchased a new air cleaner for my truck; its a 98 GMC that requires a A1300c. I bought the Carquest equ. that is #88440 in Canada or #46440 in USA. I`m thinking that its a good quality of filter and probably just as good as the ac-delco seeing as its made by Wix/Dana. When i open it up i see...

Thanks Jerry for your breakdown about these 2 products. I have not purchased the gear lube yet but i was in talking with the guys at the Esso shop and i saw the 4L jugs of Mobilube SHC 75-90 there. If it was only available in 20L pails i would not be buying it!! I want to pick up the Mobil 1 and...
