I have a 102 cubic inch pushrod V-twin. I have always used Rotella T 15w40 5qts of it, with good results.
I have a 4qt jug of the Rotella Synthetic 5w40 and one quart of the non syn Rotella T 15w40.
I want to use up this left over bottle of 15w40 and just mix it in with the 5w40, does anyone see any problems or issues with this? I change my oil once a year and ride 1700-3000 a year so I dont see this being an issue, what do you guys think?
Mixing Rotella oils?

No problem oils are compatible.

used to do it all the time in my MB diesels when running rotella.
It'll create a rip in the time/space continuum! The whole universe will collapse into a space the size of a pin head.
As others have said ... should be no problem at all. As a way to use up an orphaned jug, it makes sense.
I doubt there's any real technical benefit in mixing the two, but it won't hurt anything either. Originally Posted By: TucsonDon

I been using using Rotella T in dirtbikes, 4wheelers, all kinds of street bikes for years.
When guys I ride with ask waht oil I use, they laugh at me. But with the superior protection HDEO offers at a bargain price the joke is really on them.
I say mix it and forget about it.

I'm already shunned by V-Twin riders for my riding an old-f*rt Goldwing, a high-viz jacket, and a plain white full face helmet! Based on all that, my Rotella oil is the least of my concerns!- Status
