I don't see a lot of talk on this forum about Petro Canada's 5w40 Duron Synthetic. This group III synthetic used to be my winter oil of choice until I got my Cummins which required a CI-4 oil. At that time the 5w40 Duron was only rated CH-4. I sent an email to Petro Canada, asking when they...

What's the deal with Detroit 2-stroke diesels and the CF-2 rating? Why do these engines like single grade oils so much? What kind of oil can be used in these engines in the winter? Is the CI-4 rating significantly different from a CF-2 rating that it will cause engine damage? We have an 8V92...
