Laurie,
It's always safe to go by "the book"!! I don't understand your concern about the 15-40 being diesel rated?? Do you understand that a diesel rated oil actually has stricter standards?

BTW, oil's are not a major contributor of air emissions.

WHEW!!! I thought it was that time of year for the big oil debate! at least the oil debate would be a welcome change to the "Price of Gas" topic. That thing is trending to beat the "learning to Barefoot" and "Interesting Crag's List" topics.

Yeah, Keith should change the title of that section to "Debates" !

Well, at least Laurie doesn't have to worry about getting sucked into the ZDDP debates. I'm pretty sure that motor has roller lifters.
