Shell Rotella T6 with WS2 from lowerfriction.com
I use this combo in my bikes too. But not in my 2 stroke V8...

i have recently changed over to 10W30 diesel oil in my L300 Delica and found fantastic results. i live in Alberta so our winters are brutally cold and my van is turning over a bit better in the morning now with the 10W. also, i'm not a specialist; but i found my engine is staying cooler. i cant back that up with any data or science but i can tell you i keep my eye on the temp gage when ever i drive. i pull a Boler trailer all summer and a snowmobile all winter and im having better results now that i changed from 15W40. i have yet to test it in the summer. ill let you know my findings this fall.
the important thing is to make sure its "Diesel" oil (more/special detergents) when buying a 10W30. don't just buy it. make sure its Diesel.

Shell Rotella T semi synthetic is available in Canadian Tire and Part Source and Napa the last time I changed oil. It is generally the best oil I have tried in my rig.
