Everybody has been awesome here. So much advice. So many vehicles to change fluids on.
The victim this time:
224k mi 1997 GMC Suburban K2500 6.5TD
I've got three oil reports for you. First one is from when I purchased the vehicle.
Of note on the third report: I installed an intercooler a bit before the oil change and was naughty. I didn't take the cast aluminum intake off when cutting it. Cleaned it out as best as possible but I know material got into the engine. How much, I'm not sure.
Reports: http://d.pr/f/YOCL
First oil filter was a NAPA Gold, second was a POS Parts Master brand (I know, I know) and now I'm back to NAPA and ready to change the oil. I've always been running Delo (really cheap at Costco).
Should I be running something different for the oil? Should I run a different filter? Any additives I should use?
