DPF Delete and Regen Off ?

To you guys running the DPF delete pipe and regen off with a tuner. Are you noticing that the fuel dilution in the oil is alot lower without regen? I know alot of people have metioned the rising oil level due to the extra fuel getting by the rings during regen cycles and just wanted to here from you guys that had regen off and see what you had been seeing with the oil levels. Thanks

I haven't had my oil tested after getting an oil change but I've never noticed my oil level increasing, and I check it twice a week minimum. 26k miles with the DPF and 12k miles w/o the DPF.

I've got 18,000 miles and have my oil sampled every 5,000 miles and there is no fuel in my oil.

No change in Oil Level

I have not had the oil tested, but the oil level appears to be remaining constant so far. I did have an issue prior to installing the Spartan and DPF delete. The oil level would increase significantly between changes. I did an oil change to Rotella Synthetic when I installed the Spartan. The truck runs fantastic!!!


FYI: 20% better MPG!!!!
