valvoline

I have always used Valvoline oils in my gas vehicles. At rebuild they are always spotless. Does anyone use Valvoline 15W-40 Premium Blue in their Cummins Diesels? Anybody had a bad experience with it or heard of someone who has? What about K&N oil filters? Waste of money? Thanks in advance.

txwelder valvoline used to be cummins oil just read a post that cummins uped there oil change intervals for certain engines running valvoline. personally i perfer paper filters but lots of guys like k&n and such. had one on my 92' always worry about over oiling over poor filtering, and it took full day to service it.

Valvoline Premium Blue is available at Cummins. Yes, it is Cummins approved. Here is the article (copied from Cummins): http://www.cummins.com/na/pages/en/m...lDrain3-24.cfm

K&N oil filters are good but so are Fleetguard for a fraction of the price.
