You know what? I want to try heavy duty synthetic diesel oil in my car. Diesel's blow black smoke because they burn the oil, and my friend's dad who has been working with motorcycles and ****, recommend that my friend run synth 15w40 diesel oil in his 240.



BTW, this oil is recommended for heavy applications that run superchargers, turbochargers or have alot of horsepower.

Royal Purple is a synthetic that can be burned just like two stroke oil.

Shell Rotella



Chevron Delo



Popular diesel motor oils. I would really like to hear what RETed has to say about it if he did it, but I wouldn't trust it to burn on a stock MOP. Diesels don't really burn that much oil on purpose.
