What is the best brand and weight of engine oil to use in the diesel engine? Normal weather temp from 30 degree or less to 100 degree plus. Thanks in advance.

You want to use 15W-40. I use Chevron.

The oil must be diesel rated. I also use 15-w-40.

be sure to use an diesel rated oil that is either ch-4 or the newer ci-4 rated.. chevron delo, shell rotella and mobil delvac are examples of excellent diesel rated oil availible at most wallmarts for about $6 a gallon for 15w-40.. these oils are designed specifically for heavy duty diesel operation and will meet all diesel specs and gasolene specs as well..

good luck ... bill
