Yes, but there is a pot reservoir with the system...... it's been used since the 70's..... if you know an EMD.......... you know the system...... but we are talking about an oil pan that holds about 40 to 50 gallons...... depending on size Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Gotcha........ I know on the EMDs we use a external centrifuge system for filtration...... but NEVER change the oil. Just check oil level daily, fill as needed....... keep in mind, they are a 2stroke diesel, that the EPA is trying to phase out......... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Centurion? Are you talking about a filtration spinner system? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cummins in the MARINE application really suck..... in the last 6 years that I PERSONALLY dealt with Cummins in the engine room...... had nothing but fuel filtration and injection issues...... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And HEUI was developed by who? Non other than CATERPILLAR, and Caterpillar is HUGE in offshore machines/vessels....... never once had an issue with lube oil failure..... EMD runs off of oil pressure/hydrologics...... and Mitsubishi plus Volvo have Diesel engines that are operated by oil/hydrolic...

I get ya.... never knocked the oil you promote..... I prefer Rotella due to how long we have used it at home and 17 yrs of abuse in the engine room offshore Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And most of your 1000+ hp marine diesels and reduction gears...... use either Rotella or Delvac....... most oil changes are done every 500 to 750 hrs on engines....... reduction gears are every 5000 hrs or 12 months...... and that's with most engines turning 1800-2200 non-stop..... avg temp is...

My family and I have been running Rotella since the mid 90's..... I swapped to T5 when I got my 08 6.4......... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The 2007 DJM drop shackle on rear dropped the back to where I'm around 3/4" higher in the back from the front Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Now...... with the EBC, I have less dust, but with it being a tan dust...... I have to wash my rims every couple of days (black rims) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Same rule goes for low sulfur to ultra low sulphur..... the older models need more lubricity..... newer metal compounds and builds don't need it...... but some of the newer builds won't flow the older grade oils Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Basic need of the additive is for lubricity...... the ultra low is drier then the Low was.... yes, I understand that the parts/mechanics is made for ultra low...... but it never hurts to give it a Lil extra LUBE Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
