factory uses valvoline premium blue.

i got my fleetgaurd filter from genos garage.

soulzoo is right about filling the filter. and 12 qts is usually right on the money for mine, but its good to have a space qt around just in case you make a mistake or something comes up!!

i am using the valvoline 15w40 with the Cummins C on the jug. That C gives me warm and fuzzies. I am using the stratpore filter from Genos.

Go to your local Walmart for the best price on oil. My local store has Rotella synthetic (best choice of their offerings), Delo 400, Rotella 15-40, and maybe one other.
