Running 10k oci on our 03 5.9L hpcr, and in California we recently switched our fuels everywhere to a biodiesel blend now, so that affects our fuel filters but not sure on the oil life. 15w40 is what I'd prefer and seeing some threads on the new SN rating should that be a worry? I see the shell...

Is this some “new” marketing? Just came across it and saw their 10x breakdown claims.

Hello everyone been awhile since last on here, just wanted to ask something that has piqued my interest for some time. Whenever I go purchase oil from those 5 quart jugs, the pennzoil seems to be lighter compared to the other brands unless if I'm loosing my marbles. Is this caused by the...

I just snagged a box of these and was wondering if its better quality than the green ag grease that lucas makes, since thats my go to atm. Its a nice red color in it. I would have to grease ujoints on a diesel truck, and grease tractors as well and other grease nipples for old ford trucks on the...

Welp another old truck again, its a 1/2 ton dodge pickup and I have absolutely no clue what oil it should use but it probably needs a zinc additive for oil and fuel if im not mistaken. I can post a little more info about it later, and if I see anything on its dipstick regarding weight. For the...

So the truck has been modded by my bro with a turbo that was 1k. Its had its gaskets changed, oil pan gasket included and it still somehow seems to loose a quart of oil..... now it may be due to bad oil connections but we put cheap 10w40 orielly stuff in it. Could our turbo be burning up to a...

https://www.cumminsforum.com/threads/is-top-tier-diesel-better.2527709/#post-29280629 I had a thread in a cummins forum regarding this, from what research I've done it does look like top tier diesel does offer one real benefit and that is filtration and quality management of the diesel fuel. I...

I have a 2011 honda pilot that hasnt seen a fuel additive for thousands of miles and was looking to do two tank full treatments for it, odo is 150k+ on that also I have an 06 is350 odo is 130k+ and it recently started to have a rough idle when in drive so it needs a fuel additive or possibly a...

So I made a thread about this awhile ago https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/126k-lexus-is350-stopped-burning-oil-w-pics.328440/ After 6+ oci with a synthetic oil I stopped burning oil. First thing I noticed while driving conservatively the most part for the first two oci (3500 max rpms...

I recently got a 2020 civic 2.0L not the 1.5L, and its got 10k miles. I plan on keeping it for over 100k miles if possible. I hear lots of things regarding this cvt transmission, its the first in our house.... so for mainteance the manual says to change the fluid every 25k. Civic forums show...

Hello everyone I am looking and wondering what oil I should run in this vette? I read older threads but alas they are dated and now we have new oil formulations so that means different specs. I do like PUP 5w30 or M1 EP 5w30 but I am afraid the PUP may shear to a 5w20 in this engine. I don't...

So I was looking to do a 10k oci on the 03 5.9 cummins with T6 15w40 rotella. I currently have one on now and it has helped the oil color stay cleaner longer for the truck (3k miles so far and its still not pitch black while others would be a lot sooner, using standard delvac 15w40), or maybe...

I had some supertech udt fluid in it and I was wondering if that is alright to use? I put in 5 gallons but it needs more than that and its leaked some overtime, so should I just buy another 5 gal or switch? Thank you.

So I have this little beast running up to 220k miles soon, and we had it since 30k miles so its mostly been with us when driven. Its had its fair shares of walmart oil changes and for the most part I think its had a 3k oci its whole life. I recently started to run it up to 5k and I noticed after...

I have a 2002 prius where it was neglected its whole life and Im looking to revive it a little anyways the windows and side view mirrors are soo hazy and its so bad that you cant see properly through them, the side view mirrors have some tough water spots on them and the mirrors have just a...

Hey everyone this is for my cummins truck, I had a shop change my original ujoints and they put in a greaseable spicer brand they told me. The reason im asking this simple question about what grease to use is that I sometimes have floods over some backroads where I live in the winter here in...

Heres the backstory I bought an 06 is350 2 years ago and the PO told us that the vehicle sat for a year since they never used it much. So I monitered the oil for the car (99k when bought 126k right now), and the first 3 or 4 oil changes the oil was at or near the bottom level on the dipstick and...

Hello everyone I have a 2003 cummins that has no egr components or cat on it as well. It has 176k miles and I am wanting to extend the oci to 10k if possible, I will be using a dbl 7349 for the first time so I will be running that for 3k miles with the new delvac 15w40 I bought today from...
