Leroy every DD person I have checked with told me to use only 40W oil with a
rating of CH2. Two brands which fit the bill and have a low ash content are
Rotella and Delo 100. I believe Curt Sprenger has a link to the Petroleum
Page that explains it all. Curt I've misplaced or lost my link to that page
so if you could repost it I'd appreciate it.
