Rotella Oil 15w-40

[jimfj]

I am just giving a heads up to anyone needing to stock up on Rotella in the Midwest. Orscheln Farm and Home stores will be advertising the gallon jugs for $12.99

Heres a link:

Hope this saves a few bucks for someone

Isn't that about the "normal" price?

I usually get the T-6 synthetic in the blue jug, so I don't really pay much attention to the white jug.

Not in the Chicago area Auto Zone, O'reilly's, etc. It's usually about $17-19 for a gallon.

I use Rotella 15-40 in my 550, it works great. I tried T6 and the bike loved it but some PO gouged my output shaft and it leaks like a sieve with synthetic.

Alas, there is only one Wal-Mart in the City of Chicago (plenty out in the burbs), and it (and the burbs) are nowhere near me.

Interesting certainly economical, any issues with it?

Its the only oil many of us will use & it costs $25.99 here in Canada.

The 15W winter viscosity is a smig thick for use in frigid temperatures. Better to use 5W-40 Rotella synthetic oil in those instances.

Oh, and don't limit yourself to only Rotella, just about any diesel oil is a good choice for GS engines.

Then you need to hop onto the 402 and head towards Port Huron. By buying just three jugs at the Walmart in Fort Gratiot, you'll be money ahead including fuel.

Oh, and fuel was 88.3 a Litre last night

Shell Rotella jugs are also marked as meeting JASO MA spec's. Iv'e been using it for a number of years in multiple bikes and have had no issues. I prefer the 15W-40 white jug flavor. It doesn't seem to shear down as bad as the 5W-40 blue jug. Lots of discussion and UOAs (Used Oil Analysis) over on Bob Is The Oil Guy 4Ms.
I just bought a few jugs of MystiK 15W-50 for my Warrior (air cooled V-Twin). The bike calls for a thicker oil.
