Quote: Comp: you DO know that DELO stands for "diesel engine lubricating oil" right? Well now you do. I said they ARE good oils, just very high in detergent for our applications. There are better choices.....ummmm I think you of all would agree with that.
And now YOU know Chevron actually recommends DELO for API (SM) and (SL) rated gasoline engines. So now you can stop spreading the tripe that it's not well suited for gasoline engines when it's engineered to work equally as well in both diesel and gasoline applications.
Old design carbureted V8s aren't the cleanest running engines as where more robust detergents can actually be a plus. But you're right, DELO is not my first choice in engine oil.
