Re: Oil type /weight Rotella T4 hands down the best oil to use. Why waste money on other oils that aren't any better.
Compare them yourself. IMO the difference ain't worth the cost. http://www.royalpurple.com/wp-content/u ... r-2019.pdf http://shop.sclubricants.com/pub/media/ ... asheet.pdf _________________ To fish or not to fish? What a stupid question. 17/54 Extreme Hull with a 35GTR with just a basic build. |

Re: Oil type /weight To each his own. I’m a royal purple guy.
Jeremiah said when he tore my engine down, it was one of the cleanest he has ever seen on the inside. My go devil had over 3000 hours on it, and I always used royal purple. I’m sure the others are excellent, I just like the royal purple |

Re: Oil type /weight Which ever oil you decide to go with, don't change your oil according to the hours. Change your oil according to the color of the oil. Check the oil and be mindful of its color. When it starts to turn dark change it, because it is changing colors for a reason.

Re: Oil type /weight ^ this is true.
I usually change mine every 25 hours instead of 50. That way you are safe and you know you arnt running broken down oil |

Re: Oil type /weight No, I got your point, I’m just saying that at 25 hours, you are good. I run mine moderately and sometimes hard and it’s always perfectly clean when I change it at 25. But it is a good habit to check it often and if it’s breaking down, change it, regardless of how many hours

Re: Oil type /weight To say you are always good at 25 hours isn't true though. I have ruined oil in less than 10 hours before. I also have gone close to 50 hours though before needing to change it. Just depends on the conditions that your engine is getting put through.
Especially with modified engines they will run hotter and require oil changes quicker than a stock engine. _________________ To fish or not to fish? What a stupid question. 17/54 Extreme Hull with a 35GTR with just a basic build. |

Re: Oil type /weight I have been good at 25 hours on all the engines I’ve had thus far, so I’m going to continue that habit. I don’t get stupid with my equipment anyway, so that has been fine for me
