    I see quite a lot of Diesel oil that is semi-synthetic Why is that, when is seems every other oil is mostly full sythetic. Kirkland 5W-30 is full synthetic, yet the Diesel 15W-40 is a blend Any ideas why?

    How do you choose an oil filter?

    I have a Generac generator with a Mitsubishi 4G64 engine The stock filter, 0A45310244, is very expensive. Someone suggested FRAM Ultra XG7317, but now I'm going down the rabbit hole of oil filter cross references and there are so many options For example, Baldwin B179 at $6.82 -...

    Bias vs Radial Trailer Tires

    I have a light tower that will live in my yard, and odds are it never moves. But its possible it would get towed somewhere once or twice. It has really old, super dry rotted tires Can anyone weigh in on Radial vs Bias ply tires? I heard that Bias ply holds up better over time, even though you...

    2 Gallons of Rotella T6 5W-40 - What to use it in?

    I got 2 Gallons of Rotella T6 5W-40 a while ago, and I'm wondering what exactly I can run it in Would the 5W be too thin for my Kubota D1005 in my MLT3060 Light Tower? Would it work out good in a portable generator? Its Deisel oil, but could I use it in my Generac RG027 with a Natural Gas...

    Diesel - How long can I actually store it?

    I just got myself a Diesel genset which has a 30 gallon tank, and I plan to get at least 4 x 5 Gallon jerry cans But, having no diesel vehicle, the storage times are going to be quite long. I know that old Diesel can be stored for a long time, but what about modern Diesel?

    Honda EU7000iS vs Kubota GL7000

    Odd comparison for sure, however hear me out I have what I would say is a reliable standby nat gas genset (Generac RG027, 1800 RPM, liquid cooled etc) but of course there are situations I have to turn it off during an outage, like to change the oil. There could also be a situation where there...
