I run a demandated 600 hard pulling 143,00 to 150,000 lbs of logs off the mountains. My oil temp does get up there daily , I use Chevron 15w40 so what intervals in hrs would you recommend and what weight of gear oil?
Thanks in advance

If your truck is demandated and you are seeing excessive oil temps the first place you need to start is having your tune checked. Not saying this is your issue but if everything is working properly and you are driving properly your oil temps should never get too high.

does not matter how well you think it runs... if that program has not been reviewed, then it needs to be copied from the ecm, then e-mailed to me, so that it can be checked for correctness. For all anyone knows, it could have too much injection timing in it, or no operating mode control re-mapping, incorrect fuel-air-mix, etc. and causing the oil to run hotter than it should.

Sorry oil gets up there but not to high. What weight gear oil should I try and yes I will send you the program.
