sir sa apat na yan petron palang ang nasusubukan ko. ok naman sir. wla naman ako reklamo.

I've tried Petron, Shell and Caltex. Now, I use Caltex Delo regularly. What matters is that oil change is done regularly. If your engine is turbocharged, synthetic oils give an advantage since they do not breakdown easily due to excessiely heat and thus are not prone to coking, which destroys turbocharger efficiency.

I hope this helps.

Cheers!

I can't explain it but my truck runs better (smoother, less smoke, more power, less noise, easier starts) when I use Sea Oil Biodiesel. I've only tried Flying V and Sea Oil so far. Furthermore, Sea Oil seems to leave less moisture in my tank. I also use their additive.

Mabuhay!

On Turbocharged Fuegos:

Has anyone here modified their exhaust pipes already? How about air cleaner upgrades?

Salamat po.

Mabuhay!

sir,

i've tried all on your list except mobil delvac, i've also tried the Shell Rimula X and after all those, my jb-1t is quietest running on Shell Helix Diesel Plus, so i would recommend this. =)

I will try it on my next oil change. Thanks a lot. Really appreciate it.

Sir, may I know how much a Simota Filter element costs for our type? Is your filter a drop-in or is it already external? I still use the original air cleaner box since I have a snorkel installed.

Thank you

Blaster
