Hey Sammy it's Jack the guy with the black Peterbilt. We met at the TA in Barstow about this time last year. I used that in my motor. it did the trick for me. I was using a gallon about every 3000 miles. Now I use a gallon about every 10000 miles. I change it at 12. I did it after I deleted everything, I wanted to clean all that crap out of there the best I could. That was about a year-and-a-half ago and I'm still going strong. Hope it works for you too
And I was going to say I didn't do anything special. I just dumped it in and drove. I don't remember what the mileage was when you were supposed to drop it. But I know I follow the recommendations I didn't change filters or anyting during the process. I'll see you again sometime take care bud
Had a 14 cummins did the same thing, but with a lot less miles... cummins recommended valvoline restore, tried it, and ended putting new pistons and rings in it. Super common on the 14-15,s and probably a few more
Schaeffer oil, Ultra Performance 10W30, will do the same thing they’re claiming and is much cheaper. Schaeffer has a has a powerful additive package that will actively clean the crud out. I’ve witnessed it in a used Volvo I bought. The first 75k miles of samples were terrible, but now they’re perfect.
This valvoline oil has a 50% group 5 Easter base stock, that's what does the job. Schaeffer is a amazing oil but they don't use any Ester, if you want the closet equivalent to this valvoline oil the only other one on the market is redline 15w40 which is also a 50% Ester base stock. Those are the only 2 diesel oils on the market that use that much Ester, a high Ester oil will clean a gunked up gasoline engine in 10,000 miles (I know we're talking about diesels but thats not where my experience lays)
It works!! I use less than 1/2 gal btw 15,000 mile oil change. Jerry recomended doing this oil change yearly to keep engine clean. I have next years oil change sitting at home in my office!! Keep a few gals with you at all times, it’s designed to clean the carbon from your rings which means it’s designed to be burnt off. Also, after running it I tried Delo oil, she did NOT like it, switched back to Delvac and all is good with the world!!!
Jerry told me the same thing. I just used 3 gallons mixed with regular oil... It helped a little. Im interested to see if it works by using the restore oil only. Jerry is the man!
2350 ISX '13 engine. This stuff works. I have used it since I had 400,000ml and started to burn oil. I use it every 120,000ml and it keeps my oil consumption at reasonable level. Now I am at 1.2 million and going strong.
@MakeCentsTrucking , yes. I change the oil between with regular part synthetic. Then the oil burning slowly increasing from 10,000ml/gallon to 5,000. Then comes the Valvoline Restore change what resets to 10,000. Btw, I have experienced the same cold leak issue. I needed to get fixed, because it failed on the company safety inspection. But the Valvoline saved me from an early rebuild.
Hey Sammy just a suggestion you should send a oil sample in of your old oil and you can further more see what's going on with it I use a place called black stone they will send you a kit , there very knowledgeable its like 28 dollars or so ,
Diesel Machine in Princeton Indiana has warehouse full of rebuilt engines CAT DETROIT CUMMINS they quoted me 15k out the door with a core. Takes 4 days to swap engine. 3yr warranty on some models. All engines go in dyno for break in . They do trans as well.
Cummins tried this to my cousin’s motor before they changed the pistons and liners. It was under warranty so they wanted to try the cheaper way first. This was around 3-4 years ago.
Just finished my $85 pg VPB Restore cycle. Will be using the VPB from now on, although Delo 400 may produce less ash, and now the newest Delo 600, even less ash.
Is the truck deleted? I got a paccar mx13 motor in my 579. Deleted has almost 900k miles on it. Runs great doesn’t lose oil in between oil changes I do do every 20-25k miles intervals.
I have a 2011 isx . Been using 5 gl lucas Pure synthetic in it for years , just hit a 970,000 miles going to do the inframe this week . Im also going to install a Spinner Centerfuge to help out with the carbon . I had the same oil leak it would leak when cold and seal up after 30 min of driving. That engine is only going to get worse, would not be suprised if your oil cooler gaskets fail and start leaking oil into the coolant (mine did) all down hill from there . Great video always good info. 👍👍
Try the mobil delvac for me that is the best oil for trucks or Rotella , Im a owner operator I have 2 trucks and one of them is Cumming ISX for those type of engine it’s normal the oil consumption in my truck it takes 2-3 gallons between maintenance and I do my maintenance at 12,000 , what you need to worried is the pressure of the oil to the engine put some Lucas in the middle of maintenance. I stay away from shops I do the mechanic and maintenance they will rip you off!!! Stay safe out there
If that oil is dissolving all that carbon into your oil, consider changing your oil filter a couple times so it doesn't plug. Watch your oil pressure gauge too
Hope it works. However if it doesn't try treating the carbon from the top side if possible using brp engine tuner. Ive used it on carboned and sooted up direct injected outboards for years. I've seen leakdown drop from 40% to 5% after a couple treatments.
it’s just another tax write off so he’s probably saving money than fixing the problem. I can see his point but I rather fix it instead. But hey this ole 60 series leaks a gallon a week and I rather it leak than not. Once a 60 series stops leaking something is wrong.
Do an internet search for it & read the hits on Bob Is The Oil Guy. Those chemists analyze it & posted the patent with the concise formula. Very unique chemistry.
My 2014 cascadia is leaking oil from the passenger side oil pan gasket.it looks like it’s from the oil pan gasket but it’s coming from inside a space between the block and timing gear cover? It’s towards the front do you have any info on this? It’s a Cummins engine and only does it at start up and then stops leaking. Thanks
My suggestion as a mechanic: remove the head and oil pan, pressure wash the block, crankshaft and the head with diesel. Don't forget the oil pump. Change the hed gasket and oil pan gasket and put it back together. One can do iin 1 day and not mach money.
Did you have any blow by coming out of the blow by tube or the dip stick? I’m losing a gallon every 2 thousand miles, I have no blow by and I was wondering if this is my problem or if it could be the valve seals.
Buddy hope it works. But you know Rawze thinks its snake oil. LOL But I think its going to work. If not its making the KW and the oil company rich.. We used to add Kerosene to the engines. That would cut the crud out of them. But then some it finished also. Thinking on my 95 model Series 60. It will just get a inframe. That cost almost buy's half of my parts. LOL
I have a diesel mechanic who says that transmission fluid in the fuel tanks can do the samething, but he told me that back before the trucks were computers on wheels with dpf. so don't know if it would screw up something on todays trucks.
High oil consumption is a byproduct of piston ring ware. You need new piston rings. Problem is, you probably can't buy just the rings. Keep a eye on your turbo also. One bad o-ring could cause her to run away. ✌
I have a 2015 kw didn’t use any oil until the bottom end bearings got changed after high pressure fuel pump sent metal shards through the bottom end now I go through a gallon a week
I have 2006 w900 with a cat 6nz and I go thru 1 gallon every 10k miles and I think it leaks out more then what it burns and the engine has close to a million miles
I had to change oil every trip of 3500 miles I added aftermarket second filter then I got 2 trips out of it around 900k miles 2009 Cummins isx 435hp I got rid of it
I have a dd15 with 500,000 on it. I change the oil evrry 60,000 miles. I've never had to add oil. I don't even check my oil level anymore. I've always used 10w30.
I'd be worried about increased bearing clearances running the thinner oil, or maybe some crud loosening and clogging the oil pick-up screen? I locked up an old GM V6 years ago pouring in some motor clean stuff....it was a $500 car though...lol. Hope it works for you. I use high-mileage Mobil1 in my Hemi pickup to prevent seal leakage...it seems to work....no leaks.
10-30 is the correct oil specification for that motor to begin with. 15-40 reduces oil flow and causes overhead starvation once soot starts building up in the oil, thickening it further
Hey Sammy how many miles can be expected to get on the ISX engine before a rebuild is needed? I've looked at some truck with around 600K on them from TMC and was curious about the engines. Thank you Glenn
Hope it works for you but don't be surprised if it doesn't help, get ready for a overhaul with updated anti carbon ring liners and pistons. At 700k plus mileage on a isx cm2250 or 2350, it's time for a overhaul anyway. Keep us updated on it. Keep the Shiney side up!
Big Tim's Trucking LLC I swear by it, I was starting to consume oil then started using that product and it cleaned itself up. Plus 650,000 trouble free. It maybe 240 a gallon but it goes along ways for sure. I’d talk to make cents if I had a way to connect with him
I'm afraid this is a band-aide to a problem if it even helps at all. Carbon packing around ringlands on top of the compression rings causes "glazing" to the cylinder walls (basically polishing the Inside diameter of your cylinders down past the cross hatching.) because carbon is harder than the steel sleeve. Without out cross hatching on your cylinders your oil doesn't adhere to the the cylinder walls as evenly which compounds the problem further by making it worse faster. Just plan on doing cylinder packs sooner than later. Get that thing freshened up and keep hammerin my dude, Best of luck Sammy B!
Hey Sammy, can you find out if this can be ran with an ops filter system? I know it’s only designed for one oil interval but I wasn’t sure if it was ok with the ops.
Ok I’ll do that. My truck has 710,000 on it and I have the ops system I’m gonna put on at the next oil change. I want to run the Valvoline blue and see how that works. I’m usually at a gallon at 10,000 miles or so and I have been using 10/30 rotella t5.
Be interesting to see how it works. There is a blue synthetic on the market for 4 wheelers s also which is pricey. Don,t know much about it so, yea keep us up to date. Take Care of old Elimae . ! Also I sent you some stuff on FB messenger ? Don,t see too much action on Rate Chasers yet. Need to fix the Background photo and delete the old ones. There's like 3 pictures for the group that come up. I know somebody said the correct background is your truck with the shifter extension. Any way when you get time to deal with it.
Those engine can do up to 2 million miles without inframes with proper maintenance. Your with two already sounds not the best. My friend has 2006 cat c15 acert with almost 1.4mil miles no inframe, original turbos just changed 2 injectors.
@@dimab8753 first time a valve broke, decided to do a rebuild, the second time a mechanic fucked it up, and had to rebuild it, but you are 100% correct.

If you follow Rawze he was saying to even change at 10k miles cause of that carbon buildup. My uncle switched oil to Rotella and saying that now he adds less than half what he used to add. He has 2350 with 850k miles, no rebuild yet.
@@dimab8753 I'm about to jump into a 2350 and that's my game plan also. An oil change a month.

I'm hoping it works out for our boy makecents though 👍🤞 good luck
01:25 hi cents...If there is concerns about carbon build up on the ISX I would probably recommend you to install an oil spinner 976. It may be a considerably more affordable than expensive oil changes. If you are interested send me a message and I'll direct you to where you'll find every single part needed with diagram for cummins. DIY.
@@blackfivetrucking7674 Ok I just wondered....I thought maybe like tires they sell..there built to a certain standard to allow name brand to put there name on.Maybe that's just all hearsay
Guillermo S nope decided to get away from the Cummins after loosing my pocket book in them. They are strong engines but aren’t built to what they use to be. I went back to being a CAT owner...
jonh more depends on door rates in your area. My area high side would be $150 an hour and I can’t remember the book time on them but they can easily be done in 8 hours.
I have the same engine...Cummins did the overhaul at 370k under guarantee....they told me it will do this againg...i have 572k and star doing the consumption again..looking to delete the whole system..good luck..
I would Not buy the last part known to man from MHC Kenworth in Chattanooga! Go to Knoxville. Dont have any service work there either. I have used Valvoline 15w40 in my 600 cummins and it's got almost 800k on a Recon. Uses 1 to 2 gallons in 20k.
I was at 500k on mine when Cummins recommended I use that for 1 oil change. I went from using 3 gallons between intervals to using 1 or less between. I also started averaging an extra mile a gallon. What I'll add though is my truck wasn't demandated, and after that started having to drop and clean that DPF about every 80k or so.

5 gallons in 14,000 miles is some serious oil consumption. Never heard of this, very interested to see the results.
That's because he's using a low viscosity oil. If he would jump to 15w40 or something higher like 15w50 oil consumption will drop significantly.

@@dimab8753 first time a valve broke, decided to do a rebuild, the second time a mechanic fucked it up, and had to rebuild it, but you are 100% correct.
That $1,700.00 Should Have Been Towards An Overhaul...Wasted MONEY..On OIL...
I was told that this oil was discontinued is that true
I don't think so. My friend in Tx can't order in Tx but we ordered it here in Chattanooga at the MHC dealership last month :)
What has been your oil change intervals? And how many miles do you have on her?
18-20,000 and 710,910. Been using Mobil Delvac
@@MakeCentsTrucking I thought you doing oil changes at like 12-14K miles, since you own a truck especially those 2250,2350 Cummins. If you follow Rawze he was saying to even change at 10k miles cause of that carbon buildup. My uncle switched oil to Rotella and saying that now he adds less than half what he used to add. He has 2350 with 850k miles, no rebuild yet.
@@dimab8753 I'm about to jump into a 2350 and that's my game plan also. An oil change a month. It may be an extra 33% in oil cost that I'll try to offset by doing it myself, but I've never been a believer in the long term effects of any type of restore product. I'm hoping it works out for our boy makecents though 👍🤞 good luck
@@dimab8753 stick with a synthetic to begin with it as far superior detergency to stop this buildup
You better let me know buddy !!!!
Add an oil by pass filter. Best. Money you’ll ever spend.
I know this is old but from which point did you run the by pass supply line. Thanks in advance
@@truckinnuttz7038 There’s a fitting by your oil filter in the block you run it from there
@@Jerzeyguy thanks do you recall the size i think id like a cut off valve as well thanks
@@truckinnuttz7038 no I don’t , it does keep your oil / engine cleaner.
The soot is what kills The longevity of the new engines
@@Jerzeyguy i just purchased the valvoline blue restore. Im going to run that. thanks I appreciate ya
What oil are you running on the regular sammy?
How many miles are on the truck
I just did an Oil Change with that oil, not the Restore though , keep us posted on results
Hey Sammy, this is Angel, how many miles do you have on your Cummings?
709k I think it is
I can’t find this oil does anybody know where to get some
I went to my local Kenworth dealer and they ordered it for me.
Hey Sammy I’m hear this oil was designed for a particular isx engine do you think it would work on my isx cm871
Did he say guy had 200,000 miles on a truck and is adding 4 to 5 gallons or something like that between oil change? Maybe I heard wrong but if so
Oil change is not your problem...Fix The Leak...You Can Add GEAR OIL and it Wouldn't Help...
Lol hang around. The leak isn’t the majority of oil consumption 🤓👊
01:25 hi cents...If there is concerns about carbon build up on the ISX I would probably recommend you to install an oil spinner 976. It may be a considerably more affordable than expensive oil changes. If you are interested send me a message and I'll direct you to where you'll find every single part needed with diagram for cummins. DIY.
are you pulling oil samples? the engine you save may be your own.
Yes. All is well
@@MakeCentsTrucking outstanding
You can use a hydrogen fuel cell system to clean the engine like new.
What the Diablo is that
What type of oil are you buying from wally world ?
Dough Boy The same you buy at the truck stops but $10-12 cheaper
Mobil Delvac
@@blackfivetrucking7674 Ok I just wondered....I thought maybe like tires they sell..there built to a certain standard to allow name brand to put there name on.Maybe that's just all hearsay
Can only be purchased thru Cummins dealer now $81 A gal.
I normally use 1gal every 12-15k
Same here my isx15 & C15 take about 1 gal 12-15k. Best thing to do is an overhual adding 5 gal before oil change is CRAZY!
How long do you leave it in?
Normal oil change. 20k miles
This is happening to me right now.. My truck is at Cummins
Can't wait to see how this works
Me too man 😎😎
Next time drop $1700 on chicken lights and chrome.
fuck it chicken mcnuggets
Too bad Valvoline didn't sponsor you for this test !!
Just curious, what year is your Kenworth? It's a beautiful truck.
Appreciate it man. She’s a 2014
Better roll some bearings in it at the minimum. My ISX locked up at 700,000 miles. Cummins even recommends bearings at 500,000 miles...
Matthew Sones did you do an oil analysis?? Maybe you had more then one issue going on!!
Bearings at 500k is correct ! Better to be safe than sorry
Guillermo S nope decided to get away from the Cummins after loosing my pocket book in them. They are strong engines but aren’t built to what they use to be. I went back to being a CAT owner...
Howmuch it cost the bearings???
jonh more depends on door rates in your area. My area high side would be $150 an hour and I can’t remember the book time on them but they can easily be done in 8 hours.
I have the same engine...Cummins did the overhaul at 370k under guarantee....they told me it will do this againg...i have 572k and star doing the consumption again..looking to delete the whole system..good luck..
I would Not buy the last part known to man from MHC Kenworth in Chattanooga! Go to Knoxville. Dont have any service work there either.
I have used Valvoline 15w40 in my 600 cummins and it's got almost 800k on a Recon. Uses 1 to 2 gallons in 20k.
Used them for years and my truck keeps rollin 🤓🤓🤓 but I only buy parts 👊
Didn't work for me. It's 72 a gallon at Cummins elpaso. It's been around for years.
10w30? Not 15w30/40?
Do they make anything similar for the paccar engine?
You can use this. But if you don’t have blowby and bad oil consumption I wouldn’t worry with it
@@MakeCentsTrucking thanks for another information video, I can't wait to hear the results. No blow by, but definitely losing oil.
1,340,000 on cm870 full delete still running strong,zero gallons burnt oil, changed every 12,000 mi....6.2 mpg just saying
Yeah me too 854000 miles emessions deleted.borg Warner turbo.. Guess mine didn't know it was supposed to grenade @ 600k. Keep on truckin bud.
Should someone with a paccar engine do the same ?
Only if your burning a lot of oil.
I hope it works Bro 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I was at 500k on mine when Cummins recommended I use that for 1 oil change. I went from using 3 gallons between intervals to using 1 or less between. I also started averaging an extra mile a gallon. What I'll add though is my truck wasn't demandated, and after that started having to drop and clean that DPF about every 80k or so.
