Providence FS 5W-40 HDEO VOA

I’m a lot farther from them than you are. No worries.

Too bad you don’t have Rural King closer. Mine is 3 miles away. Great folks working there and lots of stuff to see and browse.

I wish I did have one, even if I had to drive some to get to it. We have Atwoods and TSC.

How long did it take to get your report?

It was very quick—disregard the dates on the report. The slowest part was me shipping it after sampling and then uploading it after receiving the report lol

So online the 5 gallon bucket of 5w40 is $79.99 so $4/gallon ain’t bad price I think.

It figures out to 5.99/ gallon shipping + 79.99 + 11.80 tax for me. That puts it within a dollar of what I get VPBE for locally and in any quantity. But I do like what the Providence oil looks like in the UOA.

Atwoods carries Rural King oil and I’m going to give them a call and see if they can order this oil when they order their other oil. All they can say is yes or no.

I was referring to the lower calcium ppm in SP as opposed to SN. Funny that the calcium is low, well within SP range.....but not rated SP. I guess it has to do with other factors, such as ZDDP, being above limits for SP rating.

I wonder if this would be proper for use in a DI gas engine? That would be a great choice for my old 6.2 Diesel....or so my uninformed mind would think.

All the CK-4/SP HDEO's I've seen have <800 PPM Phosphorus. This one is way over that. LOL
Can't believe there's still some 6.2L lurking around. Nice

Justin; the only Providence HDEO OIL that’s CK4//SP is their 15w40

hmmm.....I am not an expert, but the math does not seems to add up above.

hmmm

I may just grab a gallon as shipping isn’t cheap

@burbguy82: Check out their 10w30 VOA I did while back

Interesting The store house brands seem to be a good value. We have tractor supply and a few others that have decent prices.

Tractor Supply stuff is high. The Providence 20w30 blend is still $16.99 and only CK4 rated.

What’s interesting is my gallon I got today is silver. Probably same oil as it’s CK4/SN
