    Motor oil

    I keep seeing different opinions on the all mighty rotella t. Apparently valvoline has caught some attention? What has worked best for others ??

    Re: Motor oil

    Just because a company says theirs the best means squat to me. So, over the years I've questioned these claims. I found everyone has a preference and each truck runs better with different oils. So I ran different oils for a minimum of 3 oil changes and each change I sent in oil samples for full results. (I use BlackStone Lab)

    What I found was my truck runs best on Rotella T6. (Results proven by the lab). I know others that have tried this and found their trucks run better on other brands. Couple trucks were the same year and make of truck as mine. It takes time and cost can vary, so it's up to you to decide.

    The answers will vary like mentioned above but what are y'all running for oil filters? I used to use Mobil 1 in my last 5.9 and never has issues - I have seen a lot of recommendations for Fleetguard & Mopar just looking online.
