oil type - birdboat45 - 03-28-2008 06:07 What oil to use in 8v92 Delo 40 weight 400 or what. Thanks Jack Jones 87 pt 40 oil type - Don Bradner - 03-28-2008 06:23 Straight 40. I'm not overly brand-conscious, but it happens that I'm sitting in the waiting room (the wonders of air cards!) of a DD service operation getting an oil change as I type this, and they are using Delo 100. As an aside, CCW tried to change my oil in January but couldn't get the plug out. It has/had a male square 5/8-inch plug. The guys here were only able to round it off some more, so they welded a large nut to it, and that allowed them to get enough torque to do the job. It was cross-threaded, with most of the damage done to the plug and not the pan. They think that cleaning the threads with a tap will allow a new plug to work OK.

There is many varied opinions about oil.
I use only Shell Rotella 40 weight in my 8V92. I buy it from the local distributor.
