Do you run the Delo 15w40 all the time or eventually switch to M1 or GC after it's done it's cleaning job?
Thanks

i hate walmart anyway, its good if i inadvertently screwed them over. chevron delo, for those who don't know what it is, is an excellent heavy duty diesel oil, of grade 15w40. people in the know use it in gasoline engines to remove deposits synthetic oils like mobil 1 can't even touch. an added benefit is that in normal cars that can use 40 wt oils, the stuff lasts at least 4500+ miles between changes, as shown in analysis at bobishteoilguy. i'm cheerful, first this, then i find gas has gone down 5cents to 2.40 for 93 octane.
