I'm new to the diesel world. I want to change my fluids after getting a new (to me) truck.
I have a 06 mega cab dually that has the 5.9 cummins. I drive it daily about 20 minutes to work each way. I live in FL its almost always atleast 80 degrees and sometimes (about a month out of the year) can get down to about 30 degrees. What weight of oil should I use? synthetic or not? or blend? How frequent should I change it?
I'm debating getting a Baldwin 7314 or 7349. Can anyone tell me which one is better?
I'm also thinking of getting a FASS system (just to help clean and keep cp3 happy) because the truck will stay stock performance wise. I only have a intake and exhaust.
Recommendations on the best fuel filter for stock?
Anyone use aftermarket stuff like hotshot's stiction eliminator? diesel kleen? how often?
Thanks for everyones advice. Just trying to keep the truck happy for as long as I can.
