Can Mobil Delvac guarantee a certain amount of engine life without an overhaul?
Mobil Delvac will help you achieve maximum engine-life performance. However, the actual life of an engine prior to overhaul depends on many variables: choice of oil, oil-drain interval, maintenance practices, terrain traveled, driving habits, fuel quality, load carried, and ambient temperature (to name just a few). But using Mobil Delvac will certainly help keep the engine-life odds in your favor.
Specifically for the Dodge Cummins Turbo Diesel AMSOIL engineers and manufactures a 15W-40 Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel Oil that when used in conjunction with the AMSOIL Absolute Efficiency EAO-80 engine oil filter will allow you to travel 25,000 miles between filter changes and 25,000 miles/1-year between oil changes. If you use oil analysis you can usually go longer than 25,000 miles/1-year but that must be documented with oil analysis test results. Other AMSOIL benefits include reduced sludge and deposit formation, extreme temperature protection, improved fuel efficiency and rust and corrosion prevention and it does not void any new vehicle warranty. AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants meet and exceed all API rated and Dodge specifications
For 2007 and newer Dodge Cummins Turbodiesel’s with the 6.7L engine AMSOIL offers a 5W-40 Premium Protection Oil that is engineered to be changed as per manufactuer’s recommendations, or longer with oil analysis testing.
The other option is to install an AMSOIL Dual Remote By-Pass Filtration System. With this system you only change your oil when oil analysis indicates. The regular full flow filter is changed at 25,000 mile/1-year intervals and the by-pass filter is changed at 25,000 miles/1-year. The AMSOIL 15W-40 Synthetic Heavy Duty Oil does not break down like conventional petroleum based motor oils, is much more shear stable and does not have the waxes, paraffins and by-products that come out of crude oil that is pumped from the earth.
