Oil Brand/Weight?

Either one man.
I've contemplated it and would have gone with either diesel oil or the 15/50 M1 but I decided to stick with the thinner stuff for the "winter" we didn't have. Lol

Did some maintenance today, I changed the oil, used the Rotella T6 and a viper oil filter, changed the manual trans. fluid, I used the Mopar synthetic syntorq and I put in 2 bottles of modifier. I changed the rear diff fluid with mobil-1 75w90 LS gear oil and 2 bottles of modifier. Put on a new drive belt, cleaned the throttle body and did an engine decarb. Seems to be running better and I noticed more throttle response. I picked up new spark plugs (champion from the dealer) and will do that in the near future. So far so good!!!

I know it hasn't been long but how does your truck seem to like the T6?

So far so good with the T6, the biggest thing I noticed was putting the viper oil filter on. It had an aftermarket one on before that, ( was on when I bought the truck) kinda of weird because the truck made a hum/ buzz type noise under load, and after servicing it, the noise was gone.

It was the oil filter causing that noise for sure, many others have experienced it also.

I will be switching to M1 15/50 this weekend.
