You'll see through my post's that I've never recommended an F1 10w-30 in an HDEO application. Just my personal position.
Can I use Pennzoil Platinum 5w40 A3/b4 in my diesel truck?

So Delvac has 4.1 and PPE 3.88. What will happen if one uses oil with 3.88 and not 4.1. I am all ears. People race vehicles with less HTHS for 24hrs in engines that develop much more heat.
So, please enlighten us?
PPE exceeds CF. The reason to use HDEO with CK-4 is emissions-specific requirements that this engine was never designed to meet. You are stuck on HTHS, while differences between HDEO and PCMO are all about specific additives, not HTHS. If HTHS is the key, there are numerous PCMOs with much higher HTHS than any HDEO.
Also, that engine is allowed to use dino oil, which is FAR, FAR more inferior than PPE.
Why then you mentioned F1?
So what gives?
1) Is this truck still under warranty?
2) Do you like living dangerously?

Even a proper F1 10w-30 would be preferable vs a European oil that's never been tested in an HD application. Do you have some HD test results for PPE? What gives?

That European oil is API CF! CF was current when that engine was introduced.

Says the guy who was recommending Triax scammers to everyone.Nope, You are... Aren't you the one okaying an un-approved oil where I am not. See the difference?
Your Wrong again, Triax is warrantied against the OEM Specifications it claims to meet. This PPE You are recommending does not meet any of OP's specifications & would NEVER be warrantied for it's use in OP's engine. Who's the scammer again?

Wrong again! The Power Stroke 6.0L was released in 2003 while CF-4 was developed all the way back from 1994!! Do I need to include an API history chart for you?

It was current in 2003. API sequence is not expiring as new one is introduced. API SM, SN, and SN+ are still current regardless of the fact that API SP is the latest one.
API CH-4 is STILL current today, regardless of the fact that it was introduced in 1998.
API CF sequence expired in 2010!

No it does not. That is why they are in the court being sued. You know that very well, and only conclusion I can draw is that you have something to do with those scammers.Your Wrong again, Triax is warrantied against the OEM Specifications it claims to meet.

No, I try to figure out WHY you could/should not use PPE 5w40 in 6.0PSD.
You have not answered that simple question. You don't even seem to know what API CF is.
When i asked how API CF differs from HDEO you answer with gobbledygook.
Here is an example

VT365 basically 6.0 PSD ? was introduced 2002 CI-4 was the latest API C spec.
Answer me this... How has the PPE 5w-40 been tested in an HD application? I think I've been VERY clear on WHY you should not use PPE in this 6.0L. Yes, my response to your CF question was just as silly as your question. Look it up! CF is a very old spec & has nothing to do with OP's question.
That would only answer the should part.
Yeah because you don't know, basically.
Still does not answer if you could. Stop editing.

Ofcourse it does PPE 5W40 (SN version) has API-CF. Again incoherent.
Personal attacks is all you have left? Shall I just start with this one to report?
Your obviously the one incoherent, again, CF-4 HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE 6.0L POWER STROKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These are not personal attacks. You know very well that they are being sued, and you read that, but you are still here sharing misinformation.
So, why? Are you personally vested in that company then?
Sure, report.
YOU BROUGHT UP TRIAX BUD!!! NOT ME!!! YOU DID!!!!

Interestingly, International for the same engine recommends API CH-4 or API SJ
