Hey guys. Well, I picked up a new ride last week. A '93 K2500 Suburban with a TBI 454. It rides and runs excellent. So, long story short, I have already been thru it front to back and changed all the fluids. The PO has been using Delo 15w-40 on it for the last 30k miles since he owned it. I personally want to go back to 10w-30 that is recommended, but I wonder if going back to lighter weight affects anything?
Currently, on this change, I filled with Supertech 15w-40 and a quart of MMO for a light cleaning. It didn't really seem to need it, but figured it couldn't hurt and I got 8 quarts of the stuff for free! I am diesel educated, but the gas thing is a little new to me. I'll probably go with Rotella 10w-30 if the change over makes sense.
Thoughts? Input? Knowledge?
