Two gallons of Rotella T6 0w40 from O’Reilly’s on sale for $29.99 w/free shipping. These will go in the John Deere 950 when it’s due for a change.
@SubieRubyRoo, is the small engine oil on the website yet? I don’t believe I saw it. Is the small engine approved for natural gas generators by chance?Picked up 2 quarts of HPL Small Engine 5w40 Cold Climate for my 4kW inverter generator. Likely complete @OVERKILL, but I believe strongly in supporting companies that make the best products and give the best customer service!
I don’t think so; I heard they’ve been working diligently on their website to better represent everything available. But the fastest, easiest method to answer your natgas question would be to PM Dave; if you just want to order it you can call Mary Jane. Can’t remember if it was this thread, but for my generator Dave recommended their CK-4 5w40 Cold Climate which has a bit of PAO and extra antioxidants due to the intermittent use nature and harsh conditions most generators see.@SubieRubyRoo, is the small engine oil on the website yet?

It’s probably great for slowing down the weeping HGs on my 07 EJ253, with all that brightstock. Maybe theyView attachment 198640
It's at least 85% of some form of crude derived oil, what's the magic sauce that makes it "restore and protect" or is yet more wank from Valvoline to shoehorn yet another extraneous product on the shelves.
go for the 40w for all the HTHSBout to oderr either a case of HPL 5w40 HDEO or their 5w30 HDEO. Tough decision
Real question does the 30w have lower pour point than the 40w?go for the 40w for all the HTHS![]()
Best way to compare cold weather performance for start-up between a 5W-30 and 5W-40 or 5W-xx is to look at the spec sheets and compare the CCS viscosity, and the MRV (pumpability) viscosity if available. Not all spec sheets show the pumpability viscosity.Real question does the 30w have lower pour point than the 40w?
The 5W-40 "Cold Climate" formulation has a lower CCS and MRV viscosity than the regular 5W-30.Specs for their HDEO line up look impressive
Wow! You're ready for the filter-pocalypse . How many rigs do you have that take that filter?Visted a local AAP at my parent's town after work today and scored 4 pink wire backed FS3600, my total stock of Titanium 3600s increased from 36 to 40.
