Barthmobilers, yesterday I got an email from Advance auto with a sale on shell rotella with a coupon with 30% off making the 5 gallon for $48. Sign up for their specials. Great savings at times. Also got 3 cans of sea foam for $5. Sky 1990 Barth Regency 32RDGB1 Wide Body 3208 Cat 250 HP Gillig Chassis Center aisle | ||

Thanks for the heads up! Make sure it's Rotella T. Rotella is for NA engines (Mainly DD x53, x71, x92, etc.) Good price on SeaFoam.

It is advertised as a gas or oil cleaner-upper and gas stabilizer. I was introduced to it when my Honda generator was cranky and would only run with partial choke. A camping neighbor said the idle jet was clogged from sitting. He put of Seafoam in my gas. Within a few minutes, it started to run better, and was running perfectly in perhaps 20 minutes. I have seen this repeated several times with my own stuff and others. Now, if my memory does not fail me, I put some in the last tank of any small motor before I store it. They start better later. It is also touted as an oil cleaner-upper, but I have not used it for that, so no first-hand info. I think I would use it if I had a lifter noise or suspected coked oil rings. Modern oils seem to keep engines pretty clean. . 84 30T PeeThirty-Something, 502 powered | |||

Viscosity requirements are part of the design specs. Always use the manufacturer's recommended.

Techron (By Chevron) is also an excellent fuel system cleaner.
