Lots of oil change threads but I added this as there is a little new news out there. First, Fumoto has a new drain valve for our engine- The old one is still good to go but the new one is F137. Here is the Fumoto description of the F137: "
F-137: STANDARD VALVE WITH 12MM-1.75 THREADS WITH LEVER CLIP
Our new Fumoto Standard Valves have a larger body with a 60% larger drain, allowing for faster oil changes compared to the smaller body models for the same thread size.
Standard valves are for users who don’t need a hose connection, want to minimize a profile, or have a drain port on the bottom of the oil pan. If you are not sure which valve to choose, our article How to choose a Fumoto valve for your vehicle? will help.
Also I see Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck full synthetic oil now has a CK-4 rating so it should be good to go for severe duty in our trucks. Also they have a rebate program going on, so I bought 2 4 qt jugs and apparently qualify for a $24 rebate!

May get around to changing the oil tomorrow, May not. Retirement is good.
