being from Sth. Oz. I'm a bit slow so you'll understand my confusion. 85 bucks for oil and 86 for filters seems weird.
Gotta say though the oil price seems bloody brilliant. Maybe should move up your way although I did prefer a bit further North up in the Iron Range area.
All the best from down South

89 gq swb tb42 auto soon to be the weekend offroad toy
filters were from Nissan oil and fuel I will need to get a air filter to finsh
valvoline super diesel
was told alot of the synthetic oils cause glazing, but had no dramas with super diesel
but always willing to try new things, ill give the dello 400 a shot next time
valvoline............. you know what i mean
I was using Mobil Delvac 1 up until 20,000km's and then switched to Caltex Delo 400. I haven't looked back, the engine seems to love the stuff. I have just clocked up 52,000km's and the top of the head still looks like new. Castrol J-Max would be my second choice as it's also a really good oil for Japanese engines. Cheers.

If it's not worth doing it right the first time, it's not worth doing it at all.
Snakey
reckon advertising works two ways. Anything to do with Mr. Valvoline ( know what I mean) is totally out of my buying bag.
If they have to buy his honest opinion, (the more they pay, the more honest?????) reckon the product isn't what I want.
Plenty of unpaid, experienced opinions on sites like this which I'd rather rely on.
All the best

Hey Kris, has this guy shutdown now?
I'm about to do Bluey's first service and would like to use Delo 400 but for the life of me I cannot find any suppliers around here!!!!
Even the main oil supplier in Bayswater doesn;t have it...GRR!!!!!
Does anyone else buy engine oil online?
I have read through most of this thread, but im not 100% sure if these recomendations also refer to the TD42-T
I really havent found a oil i like, ive tried Magnatech and Nulon and im a bit ho-hum about both of them.
any heads-up would be good!
Steve.
