I know oil choice is on par with debating best calibers but.. I just changed the oil in my L3650 and G6200 with Mobil Delvac 1300. It looks to meet all requirements. But the fact it was half the price of the other Diesel 10w-30 oils keeps me up at night. Anyone else use it?

It’s fine. Meets all the needs of your machine.

But does it exceed any of the needs?

Some Purple Dye in it will make your buddies think you’re foolishly-wealthy.

(You’ll have to hurry-tho…. after a short while….they’ll Both be just as Black…and no one will be able to tell the difference.)

That's why K&N air "filters" come with decals.

Delvac probably has a smaller number in their budget line item (for advertising) then others. Excellent oil.
