In my Long 900(1975/6) I run Exxon XD-40 and a bottle of STP, My Case 930 and 2 Oliver 1550 diesels Wolfs Head 40w and a bottle of STP in each at oil changes.

The Zeter dealer (the Long is a Zeter 8011) told me just run 15w40 Rotella when I first got it, I ran it 2 weeks before I changed the oil and held 45 lbs of oil pressure and ran good. I changed the oil to 15w40 Rotella like they said started it up it went to 35 lbs and in 5 min it dropped to 5 lbs and shut it off. Let it sit for 2 hours and tried it again and the same thing.
