    So is Caltex Delo 400 the oil to use. I’ve been using valvoline supper diesel. Been looking at changing to Caltex GTX Diesel. What’s your thoughts. Motor TD4.2T

    I have been using GTX for a few years in both cars and bought it on special from super cheap when I can but I a assuming the Delo is heavy machinery grade oil targeted to the industry rather than domestics and I think will be a good choice. I have not ran it yet but it is a good price.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    I’m thinking that as I’m in the country driving at 100km most of the time or in the dirt tracks. May be worth changing to Delo 400. Mmmmm

    This is good :/ I just rang the big 4 in my area, Repco, Burson, Supercheap and Autobarn and none of them stock it. Bugger...Don't particularly want to drive far for it.

    sorry for diggin up old posts.

    I just bought 2 x 5ltr of delo 400 at Hampton park caltex depot. was going to get 20 L. but where to store. ill empty my 5 litres. then ill refill them.

    $66 for x2 5lt . $96 for 20l delo multigrade. I think even cheaper for cash!

    he said they also sell the 5ltrs at Safeway .. Not sure if thats true

    Good price Limmy. I used it and went back to Castrol Magnatec Diesel. I found for my engine the Provent was oiling up a lot quicker using the Delo.
