I'm using Rotella, because after calling Castrol, and speaking with their
engineers, they didn't offer anything that had sufficient ZDDP for break in.
Shell did, in their diesel oil line, so I keep gallons of Rotella 15-30 in
the cabinet. Diesel engines for the big trucks still need as much ZDDP as
our cars do. Plus, I've never been an "oil snob".
