Guys serious question here;
I have a 2006 Ford F-350 with the 6.0 diesel. You know the engine that has the infamous hydraulic electric unit injectors that seem to shred the most expensive oils into hamburger in a few thousand miles, all but a couple of brands anyway.
I have a couple brands of oil that are left over from past oil changes and I would like to use them if possible.
The brands are as follows:
1 qt Schaeffers 5w-40 synthetic diesel
1 qt Royal Purple 15w-40 synthetic diesel
1 qt Amsoil 15w-40 synthetic diesel
If I put 12 quarts of Delo 15w-40 conventional in and 1 quart of each of the above listed synthetics in (15 qts total) when changing my oil and filter would that be safe?
All meet the minimum API rating for my engine, and my OCI is only 5000 miles, just hate to waste it!
