Joey, I think you are too young to remember the commercial

On the Garrison power steering units it was recommended to use regular 10/40 engine oil by several authorities including a distributor/rebuilder of the units.

Technically, it could be considered an old wive's tale......but it's true (lol) Nothing beats good consistant mintainance.

Isn’t that what Arnold Palmer I used in his old tractor Commercial ???

Starting with my first car in 1977, I bought the least expensive, name brand oil in the store, Pennzoil. I have owned 44 vehicles so far and have used nothing but Pennzoil ever since the first and have never had any issues due to oil. I changed it every 3000 miles until I switched to synthetic Pennzoil in 2010 when I bought my Challenger. I use it in my 2014 Durango too, and change both at 6000 miles. The Challenger is about to hit 218k and has had no engine issues. My point isn't that Pennzoil is the best, but that consistency helps. Since nearly every brand of motor oil has their own "formula", I have always felt that mixing brands is not a good thing. No matter how well you drain the oil when changing it, some oil remains in the engine to mix with the new oil. I'd rather it all be the same kind/brand of oil.

yup Daddy of invention! Good on you bro! Run what you Brung!

I think in a running engine, the important thing is to keep it changed. I'd use what the guy was using in it. Anything newer , gotta determine what goes in it. Like the newer direct injected gas engines are very fussy about the motor oil. That old 335 family Ford..... after the cam's been broken in and lived, a quality brand should keep it happy. Like Rotela T4 🤔 now once the power steering is in it , Zina's apt to be out smoke'n the tires right off it , That might require something for severe service like BG .

Today is the late Ed Ackell's birthday, hatcity on BMT. Great guy.

Getting some interior work done the dash will be perfect when it’s done

I used to put straight 30 weight Pennzoil in all my vehicles, cars and pickups, year round. Never had any issues. Now you go to the oil store and there's a whole aisle of different oils in all different shapes, sizes, and colors. So many it's confusing. The experts on the 351M page said the high milage oil was good for older engines, I used to put that in the Dodge pickup, but all they had at the oil store was either synthetic or a synthetic blend. And the experts said that you shouldn't use synthetic or a synthetic blend oil.

Old T4 has the goods. Additives don't really emulsify ( how about that fancy word ??? ) when dumping them in like if they were added in the manufacturing process. Older flat tappet cams do like zinc and there's some oils that have it right in them . Usually not found at the front of the oil display. Then there's T4 Rotela

Thanks for the response

Wawa brand 10w-30 probably has better performance characteristics than the best oil available when that truck was new. I wouldn’t worry about putting any available modern day diesel oil in it.

Yes Paul, Sausage in Australia is very different from what we get up here. Tastes like Sawdust!!!!! Your bacon is also closer to the country ham we have . A couple of the breakfast buffets we ate at on the tour had both Aussie and American bacon on them.
