Does anyone have thoughts about running synthetic (of any kind) in the 3208 ?

Yes, I am aware DD requires API CF-2 40w. I just wanted to see what the company selling this stuff says and whether it meets DD spec's. As far as the Allison, I will give the Transyn a try since Allison seems to think it the hot deal.

Hi Leroy,

Check this link for DD's recommended oils...

Also, for those that use the DELO 400 in the DD 2
strokes _Please_ check the Chevron website at:

http://www.chevrondelo.com/en/deloworldw...efault.asp


They are very specific that the 400 is for the 4
strokes and the 100 is for the 2 strokes!

Transyn seems to be a
good idea according to
Allison, I tried to get the shop to put it in when
they did the fluids on mine but they where so
clueless about oil that I just went with the dino
oil. I'll get it next time :}
