    Delo vs. Rotella vs. Delvac for 12-Valve Cummins

    Hey guys, I have read multiple topics on this, and I think I've came to the conclusion that you can run any of these oils and you will never have an oil-related problem. I am wanting to go back to one of the "Big Three" HDEO's. My last two OCI's were run with SuperTech 15W40. Haven't had any...

    Oil Recommendation: Champion 4000 Watt Generator

    Hey guys, Just picked up one that's under a year old (have receipt of purchase) for little to nothing. Did change the oil when I got it (SuperTech HM 10W30). Would you guys recommend anything different? Possibly something like a 5W40 or a 15W40 for this Texas heat? Below is what the manual...

    Sportster 1200 Custom: Rotella 5W40

    Hey guys, So I'm going to be changing the oil soon in the Sportster. I've been using Mobil 1 15W50, but I've been curious about trying the Rotella 5W40. Would there be any benefit to doing this for the colder (here in Texas, so keep in mind not cold by any means). I figured that with the...

    Anyone else use 2-stroke oil?

    http://articles.mopar1973man.com/general-cummins/36-fuel-system/63-adding-2-cycle-oil-to-diesel-fuel I came across this a few years ago and started doing it myself. Maybe a slight bump in fuel economy (negligible), and it does quite my motor down quite a bit. I stick between 256:1 and 128:1...

    Fleetguard Stratapore vs. Fram Ultra

    Ok guys, been using the Fleetguard Stratapore in my Cummins with Delvac and I was just curious as to if the Fram Ultra would be that much worse of a filter? I get the Fleetgaurd for right around $20 from either my local Cummins or Geno's Garage. The Fram XG3976A is $10.97 at my local Walmart...

    Rotella 15W40 in 22RE

    Hey guys, I'm doing some routine maintenance on my great uncles 90 Toyota pickup with the 22RE. I've been driving it for the last week or so and notice it is burning some oil. He purchased the truck brand new, and for the last 120,000 or so has been running Valvoline full synthetic 5W30. Still...

    Dexron VI

    Hey guys, Going to be changing the transmission fluid in the girlfriend's Camaro at the next OCI. Was wondering what fluids you would/wouldn't use. Also, not looking to pay out the (edit - mod) for it...but if it is truly a superior product, I will consider it. Thanks in advance!

    2 Stroke Oil for 97 Seadoo GTX

    Seeing if any of you guys might have a jet ski or two laying around. Was wondering what kind of oil you guys use. I have been using MasterPro 2-Cycle Sport from O'Reilly. The motor (787) seems to run fine on the oil, but every other trip out, I clean the RAVE valves because they want to start...

    Synthetic 75W140 vs Conventional 85W140

    Hey guys...so I have been using a synthetic 75W140 in my rear differential (Dana 70) in my Cummins. Starting to seep some from the pinion seal. Due to work and other things currently going on, I don't have time to replace the seal. I was wondering if the heavier fluid will have any ill effects...

    Recommendations for 2010 Camaro V6

    Curious as to what oil/filter combo you guys would recommend. Keep in my, the OLM reaches 0% at 10,000 miles. This is my fiancé's car, and seeing that I rarely drive it, I'd love to just go by the OLM. Makes it very easy for her to see when it needs an oil change. Her brother picked up some oil...
