Do any one use rotella oil in their 4runner's??



Are you running this? I have 5 gallon of this and i'd like to use it if i can...... It works great in every lawnmower, 4wheeler and the dune buggy still running strong.

Thanks

You can use it, I run it in my 22re and my motorcycle. Great oil for the money.

yeah it's good oil for the money.

Thanks for the help! I just needed to clarify and keep myself from doing something reckless haha. My ride is 98 limited. Only has about 190k miles. dont think i can justify the extra money for synthetic just yet. I have 5 gallon of 15-40 lol

before you switch over to synthetic just like that, do a little research (if you haven't already) to get a feeling for the 'camps' that have formed with 'upgrading' to synthetic. the cons far out weigh the benefits, in my opinion, and running the cheap stuff with regular changes doesn't bother me one bit. the engine was built with this oil as spec.

Yep, I have run that, I prefer the nicer rotella oils personally like the T6 5w-40. That is some good oil for the price and can be had at walmart.
