Dear Randy,

Thank you for your message. We submitted your question to our corporate office and they responded with the following:

John Deere Plus-50 engine oil is tested to and meets and exceeds all the API service classification requirements. We do not pay for the privilege of putting the donut on the container.
We also test to and meet or exceed most all engine manufactures heavy duty engine requirements including, Ford for the Power stroke diesel and for Mack EON Premium Plus performance. This can be viewed on the Mack web site.

Plus-50 is a unique formulation that is blended by several different locations. One of the primary blenders is Chevron and is the blender for your area. Plus-50 engine oil is unsurpassed in heavy duty engine applications. It excels in reducing engine deposits, engine wear, dispersing soot, and resisting oxidation (which gives you long oil life due to not thickening under high heat).

Regards,
JDPOWER

Try a search using "Plus-50",there's been plenty of posts on this,this oil is of VERY high quality and depending on what part of the country you live in it's EOM and i believe SOPUS.

John Deere Plus 50 synthetic oil is fantastic stuff - a VERY highly regarded 0w40!

I have been using it for years in many different diesel and gasoline engines. Not one complaint from me, very good stuff.

I have several different UOA's posted in the hdeo section with plus 50.

I too have heard a lot of good things about this oil.... I might give it a try when my Schaeffers expires. Who makes it for them, I can't imagine John Deer makes it in house.
