Hello,
Just about to crank my rebuilt common rail engine for the first time and want to select an appropriate oil once it's broken in. Earlier I've been running Rotella T6, but I'm afraid that the cheapness will shine through.
In this engine I'll be shooting for north of 300hp with KS sputter bearings, stock oil clearance.
Was looking at a couple Luiqi Moly options, maybe Top Tech 4100 5w40 or Leichtlauf 5w40.
Or perhaps Motul 8100 X-cess 5w40.
Obviously DPF is deleted so that is a non issue spec wise. Just want a high quality oil to protect my build.
Any input from oil experts is appreciated.
Respectfully,
Travis
