Remote bypass oil filtration

Yes it's perfect for any gas engine, It has less than 1200ppm zinc in it so catalytic converter safe.

i already removed my catalytic converter so i can use all the Zinc there is..haha... another thing DOc, im currently using fully synthetic 5w40, if i use the delvac 15w40 will there be any significant change in fuel consumption? or too little to notice?

Higher ZDDP will give you better fuel economy, but 40 weight oil is 40 weight oil, it's not going to make any measurable difference in 5w40 and 15w40. Whoever got the much ZDDP and moly will have the best fuel economy between the two.

If you have no cat would be looking at just about any heavy duty diesel oil, Like ZIC, Delo, or Top1 all will last a very long time in a gas engine.

That's cheaper than in the states, with most places you have to pay extra for the TBN. Hopefully people take my suggestion and this done so they can help lower their vehicle operating cost and stop dumping perfectly good oil.

Doc, have you come across this kind of oil?

I was disappointed to learn that the 15W40 Valvoline Blue oil being sold in the states is not the one currently available at SM Baguio. What's available is the 15W40 Valvoline All-Fleet Premium with a TBN of 9.5 according to the Valvoline Asia website that was posted earlier by Ry_Tower http://www.valvolineasia.com/Upload/...et_Premium.pdf. Bought two 5-liter containers anyway to try on my Strada that requires 9 liters of oil. Price is almost 4 times cheaper than the Mobil 1 Delvac 5W40. Hoping that this Valvoline oil will be good for a 10,000 kilometers oil-change interval.



These are the images of the oem oil filter after a little over 10,000 kilometers with the Mobil 1 Delvac 5W40. I also cut-opened the used fuel filter.






There have been photos of the used and cut-opened Fleetguard LF3830, Bosch and the Baldwin BD28 posted several pages back. Comparing these to those pictures that were posted earlier, I noticed that the quality of the OEM oil filter looks better than the Fleetguard and Bosch counterparts. The Balwin BD28 looks well-built though and I am sure it has a better filtration compared to the OEM filter. I really doubt the filtration efficiency of the Fleetguard LF3830 being sold locally which looks to have even lesser number of pleats than the OEM filter.

I also decided to change the fuel filter to a new one after seeing lots of particles mixed with the diesel fuel coming out of the filter's fuel-outlet while hand-pumping to fill-up the filter with fuel after having drained the accumulated water and dirt at the bottom of the filter.

Not impressive oil at all, Viscosity index of only 130 and a 8.5 TBN, not really not a extended drain oil in my book, very low grade group III oil.

Just a correction, Monark is the Caterpillar dealer in the Philippines. Cummins Philippines is located in Laguna.
