What type of oil do you use?
 

Wonder who uses full synthetic, a syn blend or just straight dino oil.

Depends on my vehicle. In the truck its Dino, in the bike its synthetic.

I'm running Shell Rotella 5W-40 Synthetic in my 95 PSD. That combined with a gear reduction starter has almost eliminated my cold start worries in MN.

Schaeffer 7000 series 15-40 in the truck, 9000 series 5-40 in the plow tractor.

Well since cat oilo is in plentyful supply where i work..Guess what i run cat 15-40...I figure if its good enough for them, should work good for me.And i always recycle. it burns good.:hehe:

56 gallons of Rotella Syn Blend 10W-40 for $300. i will be running it for a while :whistle1:

Depends, Lars.

Powerstroke:

Winter (Oct-Apr) I run Valvoline 5/40 synthetic.

Two cars: 91 Cutlass Calais/92 Subaru Loyale

Year round Napa (Valvoline) 5/30 Dino with top-offs between oil changes of whatever I can find around the shop for the oil-burning Subaru. It goes through a quart every 500 miles or so.


Motorcycle:

Valvoline 10/40 bike stuff....Dinosaur.

I'll vote for Dino oil because I use more of it.

This poll is multiple choice so if you run more than one type throughout your multiple vehicles you can select which choices you want to vote for.
Example: If you have 3 vehicles and run all three types, then pick all three types. Or if your doing winter/summer type switches, then pick both.
Multiple choice poll, pick as many as you like but you only can have one shot at voting on it.

I run Dello 5w-40 in my diesel.

I run synthetic in my 69 chevy and my wife's 06 Carolla.

Delvac 1 full synthetic (5w-40) year round, the old lady get 5w-30 dino in her Jeep.

Rotella T 5w-40 in my 97, Mobil-1 in the car and van

I always had my oil changed at my Ford dealer. I then switched to Mobil1 full synthetic. After 1500kms yes 1500 my truck started to leak a large amount of oil from the pan area. I have now switched back to Ford 5W-20.

Because of all the problems with the Cam Phasers and oil related issues, Ford does my oil changes on my 5.4L.

are yo burning use oil in you truck??

Dino oil in my F-350 and my wife's Jeep. Thinking about an oil bypass and some synthetic in the truck.
