Moly Oil Supplement for Rotella T?

[nlemerise]

I guess I have two questions of you kind folks:

1) Do you feel that a moly additive to Rotella 5-40 T syn would be worthwhile in a 7.3 PSD, and

2) if yes is the answer to question #1, can you recommend an additive to bolster moly?

Thanks guys!

I would think that it would be a great oil. I use it in my diesel engine (and bikes). As regards molybdenum, sorry, can't help you.

I have an excellent idea! Use DELO, it has enough Moly for your needs.

You could also use Schaeffer oil as well. Either the 5w-40 or the 15w40 (The 15w40 tests like an 8w-40, but then ppl wouldn't buy it).

I use Delo 400 in the warm season, but switch to Rotella 5-40 syn for the winter (sure makes for a smoother and easier start at zero). I think I have found the solution though, Valvoline Synthetic Oil Treatment.

About an oz. per qt is all I would do of the VSOT or else it will be just as thick as the Delo would have been!

Schaeffer cured me from my Rotella 5W40 addiction.It is very robust and needs nothing to make it a better oil.

You might consider Pennzoil 15w40 long life, the sister oil to Rotella.
