PP for 1995 GMC trucks with 5.7 Litre engines

[y2k345]

Is PP 5w30 or 10w30 good enough for older 1995 GMC trucks of mine with 350 (5.7 Litre) engines?

 

[daman]

YES...

PP would be a fine choice,5w30

 

[ArrestMeRedZ]

In a word, yes. I've got a '97 C2500 with the 5.7 and have had good luck with that oil. With your much coolder weather, you might be better off with 5-30 though.

PP is 'good enough' for any engine in the proper weight.My opinion,though.

 

[y2k345]

I thought about using DMO

No SM/GF-4 oil can claim that.

Sometimes i think PP is over rated.

EP seems more durable than PP in my Accord V6.

PP is definitely one of the best OTC readily available oils.

I`d like to see LONG term results from using it like say 400km + in a truck or similar type of application. Not the usual " I`ve being using it for 1 1/2 years or 25,000 km in my three cylinder car and I think its nifty"
