Hey Longhorn, is that Castrol 5W50 diesel rated? Just curious, never seen it before.
To answer the question posted, I run Amsoil HDD 5W30. Had excellent results with the Esso XD3 0W40 as well.

I run...



I've used this oil for the life of the truck and still getting awesome fuel mileage and doesn't use a drop of oil between changes. What I put in the crankcase comes back out at change time!

Yeah... But I don't think there is a real need for me to switch to synthetic oil. So far its been doing good on this. Good MPG numbers, good HP/TQ numbers, just good all the way around... But thank Dr. Evil...
