In the next few weeks I would like to start a few education threads on lubrication. This thread here will be an open question forum, and maybe help me with some direction for the other threads that I start that will be more specific.
Just a quick something about me...
I have been around this forum and some of the other ones for years. Ive drank whiskey and shine with many of you at TS and SDX. I love these trucks and love making them run as best as they can as long as they can with as much HP as possible.
I am a direct employee of LE. I am not an independent rep or a distributor. I am one of only a few hundred STLE certified CLS' and ICML MLT level 2 and ICML MLA level 2's on the planet. I work on everything from lawn tractors to power plants. Mostly power plant fuel path and turbines, large fleets, and mining equipment. In an effort to keep this thread straight forward I will leave the rest for another day.
A couple of guide lines...
I do not want to get in any pissing matches over who's favorite oil is this or that. Let's stick to open questions about oil and grease (feel free to mention a brand if you want) and lets keep the back and forth data driven. I will do my best not to be too bias ( I love the products I sell and believe in them 100%, but that does not mean I need to bash any of my competitors to prove their worth, I let the results and data analysis speak for itself).
I would like to keep these threads question driven. I will have specific topics, but I want to hear from ya'll want you want to know more about. Education is key to improving machine reliability. Questions like what oil at Auto Zone is better should be saved for a phone or email conversation. I might give a tutorial of engine oils from the major brands some time, but I really want this thread and the educational threads to be driven by you the consumer gaining knowledge...
So, who want to get the party started. What questions do you have about Tribology?????
