HeyCharger Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Hi guys. As most of you know, I've just replaced my 673P with a "C" motor (ENDT673).As this is obviously a turbo, someone has suggested that the engine oil may have to be a different grade/type because of the turbo.Comments please.Thanks. Rod.

kevin mccune Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Try Rotella T or the MOBIL OIL' Cat 'uses in 15-40w-we had very good luck with 'Cats 'Mobil sometimes never having to add any between changes on a tight E7.

Speed Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Rotella would be your best oil. I don't wanna hijack this thread,just borrow it for a minute. Is the Rotella 15/40 good for the Mack gas engines too? Thanks!
