Hello All,
I still have some questions and concerns (at least in my mind) on how often I should start and drive my motorhome which is built on the 2014 Ford F550 powerstroke 6.7. I believe the Ford manual suggests at least starting it for 15 minutes and going through the gears at least every 15 days. Am running 5w-40 synthetics now and will for at least 2 more oil changes (then considering 10w-30).
Concerned (rightfully or not?) about it sitting too long before starts, etc. I use diesel fuel stabilizer, so fuel degrading isn’t an issue. Just curious if you think I am being ridiculous in following the every 15 day thing (that I got from the Ford manual).
Has anyone looked at engine wear and time in between starts? I appreciate any advice or criticisms.
