Whether or not to run 2 cycle oil has long been a discussion. I personally run it about every 2 or 3 tanks. This ULSD isnt very good for lubricity.

As for changing from Rotella to Mobile 1, well thats purely by choice. There are Hundreds of thousands of Diesel engines around the world that have run Rotella for countless hours and in the harshest of conditions. Its all in how much you wanna spend at each oil change.

Here are a couple of links you might find interesting.
