Hi all,
I am a newer member here and have been learning a lot. I originally started my account to get more info on the Rotella Gas Truck 5w30. That does sound like a good option but I also want to explore other options as well.
During the winter I remote start my truck for anywhere between 5-10 minutes in the morning on cold mornings. Which here in CO has been frequent lol. So I do want to explore thicker oils to help with possible fuel dilution.
Another thing is the turbos are liquid cooled by the coolant and oil so. These turbos are small and push a good amount of boost. I am tuned and hitting around 20psi so the heat is pretty high. I want to explore 0w-40 oils for use all year round.
I want the heat protection and a thicker oil and I want to pick a brand and stick with it. I do not want to flip flop around on oils all the time. My main concern for an oil with or without a rating is the SN+ and/or Dexos G2 spec for the DI aspect of my engine. I do want an oil to help with any issues with LSPI.
I have been looking at the following oils:
Rotella Gas Truck 5w-30
Ultra Platinum 0w-40
Mobil1 0w-40
Amsoil SS 0w-40
Any pros and cons to each of the oils?
Thank you!
