Thanks Soutthpaw
I'll correct it.
It's my thread.
The darn forum spell checker has only been on break for 4 months!

I have run Havoline through the years in Gas. Valvoline Max Life in my 88 Mustang. Been running Rotella Synthetic going to the Valvoline Extreme Blue Diesel on next change.

Did not know that Castrol was a BP product.

Camping World Dumps Castrol

Press Release 6-7-10

Camping World, America’s largest recreational vehicle retailer and RV maintenance and repair provider, announced today its decision to terminate a long-standing relationship with BP’s Castrol Oil, effective immediately.

This decision is based on BP’s oil release that has resulted in the catastrophe off the Gulf Coast, according to a news release.

“We at Camping World are saddened by the impact the disaster has had on the communities we serve,” said Marcus Lemonis, chairman and CEO of the Lincolnshire, Ill.-based retailer. “We consider BP’s behavior irresponsible and wish to sever our relationship. BP’s Castrol Oil will no longer be offered at any Camping World location nationwide.”

Camping World will deplete their remaining inventory of BP’s Castrol Oil products and donate the proceeds to helping in the disaster-relief efforts. The company is currently in discussions with several leading product providers to replace the significant category of their service and repair business. Camping World expects to name a replacement provider in the coming weeks.

I run the rotella synthetic 5w40

I run the Delvac 15-40 dino changed @ 5k. Just put some snakeoil in it 2 or 3k miles ago (REV-X). Real impressed with the reduced noise & disappearance of any romps in any tune since. Never been a believer in oil additives but may be something to this stuff & the oil system on the 7.3.

All of my diesels have always gotten oil changes every 3000-3500 miles with Valvoline Premium Blue 15/40 in the warm season and Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme Synthetic 5/40 in the cold season.

The SUPERCAR gets Valvoline 5/30 every 3000 miles.


The SuperCar is a 91 Oldmobile Calais with 230K miles. Hey, it was a freebie 5 years ago.

This might be ok in string trimmers and chainsaws but I wouldn't recommend it in anything performance oriented for a couple reasons. For one because the oil displaces fuel running a leaner oil/fuel ratio will richen your air/fuel ratio. That's easily overcome by rejetting but because two strokes only run 1 or 2 piston rings they rely on some oil to form a good seal. Get too lean and you will lose compression.

Oh yeah, I've always run Valvoline in all my rigs. I've been interested in the Rotella since buying a diesel but haven't worked up the nerve to switch from my tried and true yet.
