I use PB, and I like it (although mostly I buy it because I drive a Cummins-powered truck and the Cummins symbol is on the bottle). If you're still having trouble locating PB Extreme, you might try your local Cummins service center (there should be one within a reasonable distance). They may...

KW, I didn't come to that decision until after I posted.

I don't have any particular interest in extending my drain intervals at this point in my life. I think oil changes are cheap, and I actually enjoy doing the work (gives me the opportunity to check out the undercarriage). I change my oil at a facility that collects the used oil in a very large...

I think the yellow is the newer "universal" stuff...

Ralph, 1 ply, right?

Just ordered my Motor Guard TP filter. I could use some recommendations on which type of TP I should use (and where do I get it, if not at the usual grocery stores). How many plies? Jumbo roll or standard?

There is another option. Fleetguard makes a coolant that they claim is 100% compatible with everything out there, will work with all vehicles, and you can get it as EG or PG. The nice thing is, they also sell a separate coolant additive that you put in every 1 year or 150,000 miles which...

Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one going this way.

In an engine that is running normally (nothing broken, everything works as it's supposed to), is there anything wrong with running PG instead of EG?

I can understand your frustration on this. I think, as mentioned, you need some serious chemical flushing. If there's enough quantity of these little floaters that you can see them, imagine how many there must be that you can't see! It seems like a significant portion of your radiator is...

I know the propylene glycol is less toxic, but are there any performance differences? I just bought PG and the bottle claims 100% compatibility with EG and identical performance. But there must be some tradeoff??

I just changed the coolant in my truck to Fleetguard premix propylene glycol. They say that if you add their liquid additive extender once a year, you don't have to change out the coolant until the first engine overhaul (350,000 miles in my case).

I'm currently working on a bypass filtration system for my Cummins diesel. My purpose, rather than extending (or eliminating) regular oil changes, is to minimize wear in my engine from material Does anyone else do things this way? If this is dumb, why?
