    08 Duramax LMM - 9,886 miles - Delo 15W-40

    9,886 miles on sample. 89,214 on truck. Oil and full flow filter changed. Amsoil bypass is also installed on truck, but bypass filter wasn't changed. Main reason I changed oil was because I needed to install a fumoto.

    07 Chevy Duramax - Rotella T6 5W-40 - 11,916 miles

    What's going on there Dave?! Yep, a typical ho-hum nothing wrong DMax UOA. I was really excited to see the results from this UOA since it's been such a long time that I've sampled. By the way, what's the TBN of a virgin sample of Rotella T6? Was curious to gauge that against my current TBN...

    Frantz O Ring - Order in Bulk - Where?

    Anyone know where I can order the Frantz square round o ring in bulk? I sent McMaster Carr one of my Frantz o rings to match up and they stated there wasn't a match for it. By the way, McMaster Carr is a pain to deal with. They lost my first o ring I sent to them, and it took them three weeks to...

    My Frantz Install Pics - Duramax Under the Hood

    I wished I never would have sold my old Ralph Wood Motor Guard. I liked the design on it better. I kick myself every day for selling it years ago. Now, I can't find one anywhere.
