6.2 Oil Weight recomendations


Recommended Posts

I scoured the SD Forums but didn't see any oil threads. I'm awaiting delivery of my new rig and was wondering what oil weights others are using. I live at 9,000'+ and drive mostly above 6000ft in temps that are rarely higher than the mid 80's and sometimes in the mid 20's at the peak of winter. I take an occasional 1000 round trip to Texas usually once in the winter and twice in the Summer with temps in the 95+ range on the summer trips. I've used Synthetic in all my trucks jeeps and motorcycles usually a Mobile product. Does the 6.2 operate better with some oil weights over others (my JEEP happens to operate better with a non manufacturer suggested oil weight)

 

Second question.....Should I change the oil as soon as I take delivery?
