Typically, a 10W-40 is a gasoline rated engine oil. A diesel engine oil will be a 15W-40. I've used Rotella in EVERYTHING, gas, diesel, lawn mowers, everything but the wife's car that need 5W-20. Rotella is available just about everywhere. Even grocery stores will have quart bottles and maybe gallons on the shelf. Mobil Delvac is a great oil too. Every OEM manufacturer I've bought parts for used a Mobil oil as factory fill and recommended it for use. Delo is also good, Valvoline also. Buy and use what you can get easily in the future, I'm not one to change oil brands on vehicles. Like my 1996 F-250 with 7.3L PSD, 300,000 miles and something like 115 oil changes with Rotella, Put 14 quarts in, drain 13 quarts out 3000 miles later. Been like that since first oil change.
I use filters made or supplied by the engine mfg. The oil, whatever major brand that is readily available. I drove from Brooklyn, Michigan to Chicago, Ill. in a brand new Mustang GT that was close to a quart low on oil, bet I stopped at 20-30 gas stations & truck stops looking for a quart of 10W-40 Valvoline, could have bought several semi-trailer loads of Pennzoil, but not a single quart of Valvoline. Got home at 2 AM, went to the shop as soon as I shut the car off, got three quarts, put one in the engine and two in the back seat storage compartments. Had a similar situation several years before, oil pan on the 903 Cummins in my semi-tractor started leaking about 400 miles from home, steel oil pan rusting from water held against it by noise insulation. Engine would normally use about a quart of oil per 1000-1500 miles, I didn't carry any oil. I bought a case of quarts to get home.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
