Chris, I'f you do manage to bring some warm weather, try to push some to the northeast so I can have a little bit!

 

No kidding... I will share! LOL!

I stopped in at the store this morning.. Found that T6 to be a pretty good price! I was expecting the pricing to be similiar to the Castrol Syntec stuff I buy, but its not even half! Time to get some T6!

 

I also used the T6 this winter with my fuel filter oil filter and three 5L jugs (pardon the Metric LOL) of the T6 was $180 but well worth it ,I have had it in for about a month now and it has paid for itself already in my mind with the cold starts and not being able to plug in.

 

I'll keep you guys posted. I'm going on a fairly decent trip with the truck in the next few days so I'll be logging some miles.

My plan is to change it after 5k, then run another 5k and send a oil analysis in on it.

The only problem is that it will probably be July before I get that many miles though...

 

5 degrees this morning, not plugged in.
15 seconds on the glow plugs, fired on the second compression stroke.

Batteries of unknown age, I have only owned it for a year now.

 

Thats what I am talking about! Nice!

 

Little OT Farm, but did you figure out your other problem you had a little while back??

 

Yeah. I changed/looked at several different things at once so I'm not really sure what it was. I should have done one thing at a time but I had the truck in the heated shop and wasn't going to mess around.

I did IPR R&R so that could have been it. In any case it runs like a gem now.

 

i've been running rotella synthetic 5w-40 for a couple years now. no problems because of switching. i change the oil and filter every 10k miles.
