My PRV isn't much different than yours nor is my Porsche. But the 7.3L PowerStrokeDiesel in the company van is just slightly larger. I will see if I still have the results of the research that lists the oils and the junk in them. If not I will email the professor and see if he can send me another copy.

Your PRV bit different than mine... Bought case of Havoline SAE 30 last time on sale at Advance for 69 cents per quart. If you have something against Texaco quality still have half a case of Citgo brand left over from Winn Dixie. Do run Fram and Purolator filters. If they're good enough for Volvo, are good enough for me. Let me rattle ear ring some more.
