RE: Anybody using Royal Purple?
Drew, have you changed all fluids to amsoil? or just engine oil? I got a price quote from a wholesaler for about $250 for engine oil, tranny fluid, and front and rear differential. I only have rite at 10k on my truck so I'm gonna wait a while more b4 switching. What are some of the advantage that youve noticed with the new oil? and is this a good price? or where can I get it cheaper?

tranny shifts MUCH better, I seem to roll a bit farther with the clutch pushed in comeing to a stop, and of cource increased mileage.
I bought 4 gallons 15-40, and 5 gallons 75-90, 5 qts 5-30MTF. changed everything but the transfer. dont use it too much and the fluid was still bright cherry red.
out of all the fluids the 75-90 was the most expensive, but I have enough right now to drain and fill the axel and tranny on my little yoda, that needs it desperately, with some left over.
I have a AMSoil prefered customer number, it is $20 for a year and you get some right nice discounts when ordering the fluids. the $20 came back to me and then some with the 15-40, the 5-30MTF was $2 off a quart, and the 75-90 went down about $40
granted I used a local guy to get my stuff in the past, he had no problem with me doing this since I was getting it at his cost, the same as what I got since it is a drive for me to get to his shop

RE: Anybody using Royal Purple?
Im running R.P. 15w-40 in my 02 24 valve . I just got the truck about 2 months ago . Before I got my Dodge I had a 99 f-150 with the 5.4 and I ran it in that one too. I went 10 k on my ford and plan on doing it with the ctd too. I have lots of friends with chevy and ford diesels and they have been running it for a few years and have had real good luck with it . Hopefully it will work well for you and I hope this helps you ..
