Other than Arnold Palmer, no one will do more to promote Pennzoil products than me. I have used them for years, with no engine related problems. I used SAE30 in my diesels and gas engines for years. The best John Deere mechanic I know, has talked me into trying (Pennzoil) 15/40. I have run it for a year now, and can't see any negatives. We ran the 15/40 in our 4440 this spring. The tractor has 4800 hours, without any major overhaul. I decided that it was time. When we tore it down last week, the engine was as clean and free of build-up as any engine that I have ever seen, with the amount of use this one has. We change oil on a regular basis, use GOOD filters, and take care of any smal problems, before they get costly. My point is, I don't know it all, but I think that I am as good as anyone, in taking care of my tractors, and I use the multi-wieght oil. AND, I have a solid record of good service from the Pennzoil. (We even use Pennzoil hydraulic oil) I have a 1957 Massey-Ferguson 50, with 7000+ hours, that has run on SAE30 Pennzoil, for 46 years. My dad bought it new. I have started using the 15/40 in it too. (With good results)
