    New Syn Delo Available

    Available now at Walmart, there is a new full syn Delo XSP 15W40 available in gallons and 2.5 gallon jugs. I thought it was a typo and it was actually 5W40 but my Chevron rep confirms it is a new product and is 15W40 full syn. I checked online at a few Walmarts in MI and it pretty widely...

    CK4 IS not KILLING MY DURAMAX.

    A while back I posted the averages after 400,000 miles of oil samples on one of my Duramax engines. That engine has now gone 100,000 plus more miles all on CK4. Below is a Summary and the actual data. Did anything change about the truck? Yes, it does more short trips now vs the constant long...

    California Law

    Noticed this on a PDS for an ATF where the product was "suitable" for some specs (like MB 236.12 etc). The suitable spec numbers all had an asterisk behind them that led to this... *California law prohibits all manufacturers of multi-vehicle ATF from recommending products in certain...

    Diesel Fuel anti gel test

    OK...the disclaimers first, 1. This test is not scientific. The additives were used as prescribed (correct dose)..science ends there. 2. This represents the worst case scenario. This is summer fuel from ElPaso TX...in -15F temps!! 3. I do not have gelling problems...at all. I did this for fun...

    Winter Diesel additive gelling test

    I bought some diesel fuel a while back in El Paso specifically to bring home and do some winter fuel additive testing. My thought is to fill new clean Mason jars with the fuel, 5 of them with untreated fuel, 1 each with the prescribed dose of additive from Howes, Power Service and, Stanadyne. I...

    Chevron Delo ESI grease

    Does anyone have any long term or fleet experience with Delo ESI grease (the red Delo stuff)? I switched to it a couple years ago from the regular Delo grease (blue stuff) and I'm starting to see steering component wear in applications that never did before. Trying to figure out what's up. Both...
