[QUOTE="slc6oh, post: 1395814, member: 22358"] my theory, alot of good oils now days, most importantly ya gott change it on time or even early EVERY TIME. while ive only got 5yrs or so doing specifically engine work (heavy diesel, over the road) i have yet to see a case where poor oil caused any type of failure, the guy in the bay next to me is a cat/cummins guy, cats are largely heui, he says the same, with alot more years exp than myself he says he cant think of a single issue caused by oil that wasnt up to par. (all that being said, i do know 6.0 injectors are picky for some) i ran t6 the first two oil changes i did on my truck and did a uoa with the machine i have here at the shop... everything was cool. switched to dello le 5w40 for the next couple changes, uoa showed everything was cool. then after i did my head gasket job. just this last oil change i went to regular ole 15w40 dello le, runs the exact same, starts the exact same, engines no more noisey or anything best of all, its dirt cheap. (28$ for 2.5gal jug from walmart) i come across it at work for free99 as well from time to time and have enough to do my next oil change sitting on my shelf at home. ill run my current stuff for 4000mi or so and do a uoa. then go from there... i like the idea of synthetic. but at the end of the day, whats it all really worth? (as long as ****s getting changed on time every time, i kinda have a hard time believing alot of the hype) except rev x. that **** works. haha [/QUOTE]
