Rotella t6
I was skimming through the forum and I could have swore I saw someone mention not to get the kind that says "heavy duty." It would make sense that every one of the Rotella t6 bottles would say that, because in reality it is made for "heavy duty" engines...
Did I indeed buy the correct oil, or way I supposed to buy the "non" heavy duty rotella t6? Thanks a lot. |

Almost every oil thread on this forum that I looked at, 90% of the people suggested that synthetic be used after break in. I didn't just get a wild hair up my ass and buy the t6.

99% of people are wrong about 99% of subjects. would you trust someone because they are able to post on the internet?

It's a good oil, and meets all of Kawasaki's required certifications.

I definitely understand where you're coming from Alex. That's the reason why I came on here to make sure that this oil would be sufficient for me; because not ONE but many people all over this forum and many others recommended it.

I recommend grape fruit juice instead of oil.

Oil is oil it seems. Castrol ,Mobil one. As long as you stay within a reasonable change interval you will be fine.
