well i have for 1500 miles and it SUCKS. i was wondering if anybody else has had an expierence with this. i just bought 70 bucks worth of delo 400 to get that junk out. im royally pissed because its causing my motor to click a lot and sound totally different. if any of yal have any thoughts i would appreciate the advice.

 

I would also like to know about it. I seen the oil at Wally World and it was a better deal than Rotella and comes with an extra quart. The Motorcraft stuff says it designed for PS engines, just wondering if its any good I would guess YES, but.....

 

my truck hates it!! im tellin you the sound was so different i pulled the valve covers to make sure everything was tight

 

Do your engine a big favor and trade the Delo for Shell full synthetic Rotella you'll be glad you did!! and unless you absolutely have a favorite get a PUROLATOR PURE ONE filter pn#PL44872 a little more than an FL-1995 from Wal-Mart but again well worth it!!

 

Never used it since it only comes in quart bottles around here.

 

Steve, just got to ask this, i know you were complaining in an earlier thread about the oil. Could it be fuel related? Getting fuel from someone else the last 1500 or so miles? Rotella syn here... Good luck bud..

 

well ive been fueling up from the same place and my filter has only about 9000 miles on it

 

i also did oil and exhaust at same time so i wonder if the exhaust may have something to do ..it shouldnt tho just the usual 4" turbo back w/ muffler

 

Just thought i would ask, got some bad fuel before and it clicked and clanked, drove me crazy. Just seen your other post, everything tight. Sounds different from a new exhaust??

 

I started running the Motorcraft about 500 miles ago. I haven't noticed any difference between that and the Rotella I used to run. But I was having problems before i switched, so maybe I just haven't noticed it. But for what its worth, I haven't noticed any difference in the sound of the engine.

 

i know on gas burners changing exhaust backpressure can cause engine noise change just trying to rule out every possiblilty

 

I know for me Steve, when i put on my 4 inch exhaust down pipe back, more exhaust flow, more noise. Doesn't sound wierd that you change out your oil and exhaust and you notice these changes....

 

Motorcraft 15-40 caused my 99 to romp, even when it was fresh and not that cold. Switched to Shell 5W-40 syn.. no more romp..Engine sounds better.

 

I can only find 0w-40 rotella around here, just wondering if it will hurt the engine at all?

Sorry to hijack the thread Steve.

 

You should be good, you are just a weeeeee bit further north of the equator than we are.
