Diesel Oil on Gas Engines

**Bandido** · February 16th, 2006 04:21 PM

Can we use diesel oil with the same API rating in our gas engines.
E.g Caltex Delo Gold Multigrade.
Has anyone tried this in their car(s)

Madami na gumawa nyan. As long as you change your oil often and regular driving conditions, it won't make much of a diff. Mas madalas ka lang magpapalit ng langis...

Dave, ty sa reply, due for oil change na ko medyo tipid mode kaya susubukan ko sana.

Ive tried Shell Rimula X before sa tsikot namin, mga MERALCO Trucks dati na GAS fed un din ginagamit (FORD Trucks un na luma ha!)

Bandido: won't really save you a lot of money since you'll probably have to change the oil sooner anyway.

Dave every 5k naman ako magpalit ng langis, kaya subukan ko muna to since parang 500 pesos lang ang one gallon so kung yung oil ko dati na binibili is worth 1.5 kada oil change pede na siguro alternative to.

I'd think na hanggang mga 3K lang kung monograde gamit mo... Pag diesel kasi gamit ko every 3K ako nagpapalit hehe.

Some oils are designed for fleet use so pwede talaga for any kind of engine. Para nga naman isang klaseng oil na lang ang naka-stock sa motorpool.

If your going to use mono-grade oil, don't go any higher than 30W. Diesel engine usually uses 15-40W oil, but its also good for gas engine. If its your personal car/truck, don't short change your oil, its your engine's blood. Without it, your car will never run. Mobil 1 came out with this Super Synthetic that you don't have to change up to 15,000 miles or 1 year, that's what I have in my truck right now. Hopefully, it will hold just like what Mobil 1 has advertise.
