Rotella T6 Synthetic (I think it's T6?) 15W-40. It's in a blue jug. Not too expensive. I know a lot of people swear by the stuff you're using now though. Haven't personally tried it though

EDIT: Just checked, it's T5, and its in a silver jug. The blue T6 is 5W-40, and I used it in a friend's diesel, that's why I've got it here.

I usually run Delo 15/40 but occasionally will run Rotella 15/40 if Wal Mart is sold out of Delo.
