Default Rotella...

I could most likey find this if I searched.....but.

I ran Rotella in my F250 for 230k miles.
It is time for the first oil change on " Bart "the Mega Cab.Will the Rotella work well with the CTD.

I think there's quite a few here who use Rotella, I'm sure they'll chime in...

I've recently switched to the Rotella. No complaints here. I have heard that it smells really bad but I have never experienced that.

I use the Rotella. It seems to work really well. Yeah, I think it DOES stink, especially after an oil change. While I'm installing my FASS, I plan on extending the by-pass line past the cab to help keep the smell out of the cab.

I'm running Rotella in mine now. Yes, it does stink for a bit after an oil change, especially if you get a few drops on the manifold. Eeeeewwwww! [:'(]
