|
|
Any one use Mystik oil here?
I have a 2003 KW T-600 / cummins 475 hp. i recently bought and i have no idea when the oil was done last or what was used .
The company that owned it kept its appearance immaculate you would never dream it had 807,000 miles on it.Ive always used Delo 15-40 oil but I'm interested in the Mystik JT-8 synthetic blend.
Any opinions welcome.

| I got a CAT C-15 with 824000 on it and use Shell Rotella. I have used delvac, delo, and rotella. Had a 85 FTRL prior to my 03 KW, and found that rotella is better for me anyway on older engines, and a proven fact it is better on cold starts. |

We usethe Mystik in the boxes, but run Delvac in the engines. Its a price thing, Wal-Mart sells the Delvac for 9.99/Gal.
Never had any complaints about mystik oil though. |

| Wow, that's remarkable. I'll have to check in to that. For that price, I will run it in all of my trucks. |

I didn't build it, an A&I friend of mine did. I may in the future build an RV-10, but not any time soon!
Yes the RV-6 is probably the most fun an the least forgiving airplane I've ever flown - it is really a dream to fly! And at 6 gph and 180 mph, it is one economical hot rod!
I've never seen a Sakota, I'll have to look it up! |

Damn thats good, mine was 130 mph at 8 gph mid wing arobatics, if i could down load a pic here i would show it to you . It was supposed to be a 400hr build but took me about 1200 hrs, they since uped it to a 600 hr build. |

| I was so impressed with this airplane's performance, I had to buy it. The 6 gph was a bonus. Its an IO-360 spinning a constant speed 80 inch prop. This little airplane will pull off a loop from level flight at about 50% power. In a bank, the darn thing actually noses up and gains altitude! |
