Just got done with the first change. 2500 miles, probably a bit early, but it makes me feel better. Thank you for the responses. Dave

About a month ago I got a 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser. It came with the well reviewed 0w-20 oil. Toyota says 10,000 to the first oil change. I think the oil probably has a robust enough add-pack but I wonder if it is such a good idea for the first oil change. I have always done oil changes early for...

I just bought a 1990 Chevy K1500 pickup wiith 45,000 miles. he truck has done alot of sitting buit runs very well. What do you think about Rotella T5 10-30 semi syn as an oil for this truck? Thanks, Dave

FCDG27, I have many hours in a Citabria. Taught aerobatics and taildragger in them. Great airplane.

I have the same engine in my truck. It is my understanding that running a heavier oil than 5w-20 will effect the operation of the MDS. How I do not know but I have read this quite a few times. If you are still in warranty I would be very careful. Personally, I am sticking with the 5-20. Good...

A person I work with says he uses conklin motor oil. I really do not know much about this product. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks Dave

I just bought a new Toyota Tundra with the 5.7L engiine. Toyota specs 5-20 or 0-20. Thinking of running the motorcraft 5-20. Opinions? Also is the non syn part of this oil a group II+? Thanks

Thank you, I appreciate the info. Dave

You bet but I sold the fifth wheel. Wanted something smaller with off road capability. Thanks Dave

I just purchased a new (2007) xterra with a six speed manual. Looking through the the owners manual they spec a nissan atf for the transfer case and a nissan manual GL-4 trans lube. Are there alternatives or should I stick with mfg products? Thanks

I traded in my Dodge Cummins on a 2007 Nissan xterra. I have quite a bit of Schaeffers 9000 synthetic diesel oil (5-40). Should I use it? Thanks.

Thanks for advice. Fatboymoe, do happen to havethe M1 part number handy? Dave

I am buying an 04 BMW 1150 RT with three thousand miles on it. Some questions as to which oil? 1. I understand the beemer engines do not stop using oil for about twenty thousand miles (rings seating in). Would a synthetic be appropriate now? 2. Which oil? Thanks Dave

I just checked my credit card online. A case of six gallons of the 9000 was 89.68 on my door step. So the shipping worked out to be about a buck a gallon. 14.95 per gallon with the shipping. A good price in my book. Dave

I might add that this oil is very hard to come by. I called Mark (salesrep) on Saturday and tripped over the box on Tuesday. Honestly, I cannot think of a better oil to run and it is priced very well. I have been runnning this oil for only a few days. I had been breaking my Cummins in on Delo...

I have been intrigued by the Amsoil 10-30/30 wt. It has no viscosity improvers. I really like the new Del 400 15-40 also. So, how about one gallon of the amsoil mixed with 2 gallons in my Dodge Cummins 600 HO. Thanks, Dave

Why? Do we know if Delo Syn has the same addditive package? I do not see how you could get a better analysis!

I had a 99 PSD. A decent truck with a few problems. When I went to buy another truck a few months ago I thought it would be another Ford. But a litle research revealed problems with the 6.0. The dealership where I do business sells both Ford and Dodge. Service and sales staff all warned me away...

ATF+4 is pretty much a dealer item. From what I understand there is difference and it may not be a good idea to try to substitute ATF+3. Call around to your local Chrysler,Dodge and jeep, dealers for the best price.

Just curious are Schaeffer's diesel oils API certified?
