Send me your oil analysis on the 6.0L - need info
 

I've been hearing that the oil (any brand) may be having shearing problems in these trucks. It may just be the 40 weight oils? I'd like to collect some data if I could. If you have any OA reports you'd like to share, no matter what brand of oil, I'd like to see them.
I'm also not sure if the problem is with the newer CJ-4 oils or even the older ones so send any reports.
If you got em, send em.
Thanks much,
Heath

oil sheer on the 6.0 is old news.. even blackstone puts that factoid in the report

I have one in pdf but I need to email it to you it's royal purple

I've gathered that it must be fairly dated but I have apparently missed out. I'm curious as to what people are running ( for weights). From what I've gathered the 40 are shearing down to 30's, so many are running 30 from the git go. I'm curious as to how the 30's are holding up.
Just curious.

i sent you an email via this bord but I couldn't see your address so I couldn't attach the pdf send a response to me and I will send it out

I just did a net search for blackstone reports and sheer is high on all 6.0 but I did find a lot of posted reports

I actually just stumbled on your post doing the search lol

Could you post a link please?

the link isn't available it's a pdf on my email
I sent it to Heath He may have a quick way to upload it ?

Oh that link sorry I thought you meant to my report

Cool thanks!

What is your email? I can send you a few. No shearing for me, though.

Goose what oil you use? I have a few oil analysis reports from when I ran Amsoil, I think I had reports up to 12k miles, then never got a report back from whoever it was that Amsoil used for analysis so stopped paying for it. They told me it was OK to run, but I got skeered and ditched it. Got to expensive anyways... now I run regular 15w-40 rotella and change it 3k miles.

I ran MC 15w40 until the Rotella 10w30 came out. ( I was using it before the bandwagon came by). It seems better to me and for pretty much the same price as the MC. I change my oil when by the feel of my truck. MC was at about ~3,000 miles and the Rotella is about ~4,000.

I'm only doing 3k miles cause of the vegistroke, just helps catch problems early if something comes up. That Rotella you're talking about is synthetic right?

He's talking Dino

I run T6 syn myself

It is a blend.

I use Motorcraft 15-40 diesel oil with anti foam. I change every 4000 miles. It starts hard in winter but purrs like a kitten at 80 mph.
