With the Proper oils these days diesels don't sludge up but the oil still goes dark fairly quickly. Having a working thermostat for the Cooling system is vitally important. Short runs are bad for all motors. Diesels need more cooling system protection, more head bolts and non porous castings and stiffer crankshafts that are hardened. You don't need to over rev them.

A mate of mine started his Pajero through the window and it idled across the road and tried to climb the wall of the neighbors House. . Nev -

There's NO oil that ACTUALLY gets thicker when it gets Hotter. With Pollimers (Little plastic balls) it thins out LESS than it otherwise would. This effect wears out with Use, so you would change oil more frequently. The Oil itself doesn't wear out. Additives do. EP gear Oils have special additives for the high film strength required with Hypoid steel gears ( Offset Spiral Bevel). . Nev -

Finley would be a good place to come from. In 60 a mate of mine, Jim Perry was posted there as Headmaster of a One Teacher school, straight out of Newcastle Teachers College. Is calling Cities "the Big Smoke," appropriate these days? Delhi and Beijing are I suppose, Nev

Most synthetic oils are made from LNG. CRUDE oils is about 7% sulphur and has Tar and wax in it. Some synthetics are ester based. Modern synthets mix with each other and with Mineral. Castor is a vegetable oil that doesn't mix with paraffinic liquids. Greases are soaps, Stearates which has oils mixed in it. Nev -

ED Oils (Extended drain) just have more chemical= s less oil. Don't go there. Unless you operate a fleet of trucks. Pennsylvanian oil was considered the Best base lube oil. Nev -

WD40 Loosens rusty Nuts.. The Multi grade oils don't get THICKER as they get hotter. They just thin out less than straight oils would have and that is achieved by adding Polymers that actually degrade with use. If you drive longer distances in high temperatures use thicker oils. Your mechanic may have considered winter in the choice. The THIN oils affect/improve fuel economy with stop start driving.. Most modern cars warm up quickly.. Nev
