yeah went to one of those quick lube places

as I am waiting I decide to ask for the second time

 

that they were putting in the right oil

 

oh yeah like we said we always use warranty approved oil ..

 

good can you tell me which oil that is

 

wrong..that is not the oil for my diesel liberty.............not even close....

 

so I do it myself...and know it is done right

 

and don't pick up the beer on the way

 

Better yet Terry , talking about deisels , and I had to laugh at this one. A quicky lube and a gas bar attached. Change the oil and filler her up please. I saw the end resultrofl2.gif

And they say they are techs in the automotive industryrofl2.gif

I felt bad for the customer and threw in my 2 cents worth, you couldnt tell it was a deisel, not only did you f on one part, but on the other part as well. whistling.gif

 

Since we are on this subject, and I am baffled by this. The units I work on are deisel anyway. The trailers we own with heaters are run by a small deisel engine. Fine. But this is the first fleet that ive encounter that use 10 w 30 instead od 15w40. Mind you ive worked on way too many of them and this is the first time ive seen this done.dunno.gif

Vinnimon: GM says to use 10-30 in my Duramax in harsh winter climate.

With the lower sulfer in diesel, if fuel gets into the oil it will not break down nearly as fast as the old formula's of oil and fuel.

So why not use a oil that make the engine(MOTOR)start easier.
