The Motorcraft CI-4 10w-30 is not the same oil as the Conoco Fleet Supreme nor does the Motorcraft 10w-30 have near the add pack of the Conoco .

ToyotaNSaturn ,

Look at the 11.1 vi @ 100c . It's the 10w-30
 
Thanks, Stan. I went to wally world, and no 10w30 HDEO. Only 15w40 in several different brands.

Might this Conoco be too much of an otherwise good thing for a gasser? What is to be gained above around 1200 ppm?


Nah it's a formulated oil .

Too be gained ? Look at the Ca . This is a CH-4 oil . In a gasser a CI-4 10w-30 would be the way to go long term iffin you did not have an unusual need for AW .

Will CI-4 10w-430's outdo a couple of the better HM oils in gasser ? Very doubtfull for most intervals . Use my user number to search and see additive packs of Mystik 5w-30 in new oil section , Citgo 10w-30 Ultralife in used analysis section . These oils are built

Mobil ran their HM to 10k miles in a V-8 during their own testing

Well, I called Industrial Lubricants, Sayle, and Best Wade. Sayle has 10w30 Rotella T Synthetic Blend for about $60/case of 6 gallons. The other places didn't have any 10w30 diesel oils. I'll just use SuperTech oil until I'm done with the AutoRx. Thanks for all the replies!
 
I'm in Atlanta GA and can't find 10W30 Diesel rated oil - I stop in Truck Stops when I am on the road and look for it - no luck yet! Wal-marts (Roswell, Alpharetta) carry the non HDEO Motorcraft 10W30.

I run Rotella Synthetic 5W40....in the winter and may switch back to a 15W40 oil or Mobil 15W50 - not sure yet. Leaning towards 15W40.

What's the furthest south anyone has seen a HDEO 10W30 on the shelf ?

For those who think 15W40 oils can be harmful for gassers - it is what Volvo recommemds for their high mileage/high oil consumption driving condition iron block (4 cylinders mainly and PRV 6 cylinder engines. All gas powered.

Volvo has the only gasoline engine in Guiness with over a million miles. Actually the engine is at 2 million if I remember correctly with one rebuild. 1st rebuild was at 700,000 miles.

In Macon the Mystik CI-4 10w-30 is around . here's what it looks like

Boron 4
Magnesium 387
Calcium 2609
Phos 1590
Zinc 1632
Silicone 10

Vi 40c 80
Vi 100c 12.3

These 10w-30's are not built like the 15w-40's are in terms of identical add packs . One might lookout for the Citgo 10w-30 Ultra Life HM oil . Here's what it looks like after some hard miles was put on it .

Boron 178
Moly 84
Magnesium 275
Calcium 1773
Barium 5
Phos 1258
Zinc 1371

Looks kinda like the Synergyn but in a dino .
