what grade oil should I use on the CUMMINS 4BTA3.9-M250

Looks like 2.5 gallons oil ?

Going to buy shop manuals soon.

Thanks guys

You need 15w-40w.

Use Shell Rotella or Valvoline Blue.

T6 Rotella synthetic 5w40 in my newer diesels. Rotella T5 15w40 in the older ones.

15 W 40 is the one for a normal climate , when it gets colder you go for the wider range , however most of the new Yammers take 5 w 40

Thanks guys

Just got the hook up from a new friend who owns a boat yard here set me up with $3.50 a gallon fuel cost at the fuel dock.

He has a 46' Ocean nice lines.

Going out tomorrow Mako tagging then teaching a friend with a 63' x 23' dive research boat dive operation how to hunt Threshers.


Also have some Reconisis recovery mission that should be interesting.

Sorry guys. Finger fart. 15 not 5. Would have answered earlier but out and about.

Keith -

Sounds like a cool gig. Surfed several times out there on n shore of kuai. Hanalea( sp?) bay is a great spot. That kid is the real deal. Having hamilton dna can' t hurt( if i am not mistaken billy is somhow related.)

On local fm radio shark report every day.....along with surf report.

Good luck.
