Is there information on the noack numbers for the Delo XSP oils?

Are these Group III oils?

Probably. I'm not seeing anything that looks like PAO or any Group V base oils on the SDS. It looks like it's mostly Group III with whatever Group I or II carrier oil is being used for the additive package. Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, though.

I use Delo XSP 15w-40 in my Kubota M7060, and XSP 5w-40 in my two RTV-X900s. I certainly don't have any complaints. Diesel oils tend to get soot loaded way before the base oils break down. Mixing lots of PAO into a diesel oil is kind of silly in my opinion.

Thank you for the information. I'd be running it in my 7.3 Powerstoke.

Any idea why the cold crank viscosity is rated at different temps? Is that a standard 5w vs. 15w thing?
