RE: ISX, Oil check procedure?
I agree, waiting is the way I have always done it. 15 min, can change the value on the stick by a gallon! I wish Cummins would publish a bulletin on this and circulate it to all the oil change providers around. Had I not stopped him I would be overfilled by a gallon! I believe it is much worse to be a tad overfilled, than a tad under filled as the extra oil can get whipped into a foam like consistency and then greatly impede lubrication.
I usually run mine right between the add and full, or two quarts shy of the full line. It seems to consume a bit less that way.
In the case I have to get an oil change on the road, I tell them only 42qts instead of the Cummins stated capacity w/filter of 44qts, that solves the overfilling problem.
