  • Oil seems to perform
Size: 1 Gallon Style: 3-Pack Configuration: 5W-40
We have been using this oil in our diesel truck and our Yamaha Kodiak atv for years. It a good all season oil and the price on Amazon is very reasonable. Just so happens the truck oil change requires 3 gallons. So perfect amount.

  • Great Product for the Price
Size: 1 Gallon Style: 3-Pack Configuration: 15W-40
This is one of the best oils I’ve used for years. My Dodge 2500 Cummins loves this oil. The truck runs cooler and my fuel mileage is higher when I use it.

  • Newest recommended synthetic oil for my Motori diesel
Size: 1 Gallon Style: 3-Pack Configuration: 5W-40
I always change the oil in my 2014 Grand Cherokee Limited eco diesel myself. It has an Italian Motori diesel that now has 172500 miles on it. The previously recommended synthetic diesel oil spec had a Mobil 1 product that I used. I read about the use of this specification of oil for the same engine and made the switch. It is a good product and I have confidence in it. ... show more

  • Great product and good value.

Used it in my wet clutch motorcycle. It is a popular choice and widely recommended.

  • Excellent 15W-40 Oil
Size: 1 Gallon Style: 1-Pack Configuration: 15W-40
It's all I use in my Kohler V-Twin, and not too long ago I switched from GTX 20W-50 dino oil to T6 15W-40 synthetic for my 74 Chevy 454. It's great oil for pushrod\flat tappet motors, and 15W-40 is an excellent choice for small engines in warm to hot climates. My 454 is 50 years old, all original, never been opened up, and has had a slight rear main leak for years. Switching to full synthetic didn't make it leak any worse or any better, and it runs like a fine watch. I can stand a nickel on the air cleaner while it's running, so any talk about synthetic oil being bad for old engines is a myth as far as I'm concerned. ... show more

  • Great oil, but received with one bottle leaking
