I guess FNULNU is one letter shorter than, John Doe.

FNULNU = First Name Unknown Last Name Unknown

It's some kind of police shorthand.  A tax protester up by Bellingham 
changed his name to FNULNU thinking he would beat the IRS.  At last report 
he was still in their custody.

Am I missing something here? Delvac 1 is NOT 15w40, its 5w40 (five double you 
fourty).

Delvac 1300 is 15w40 but its conventional oil.

I personally use Mobil 1 15w50 but thats only because I have easy access to it.

Yes, I could certainly be out of date, since I usually buy about 8 
gallons 
at a time, and that lasts a couple of years for me.  Actually, I 
thought the 
TruckSUV Mobil1 had disappeared with their last change, since it 
disappeared from local shelves.  But I suspect that Delvac1 will be 
around a 
bit longer, as real truckers don't seem to have such short attention 
spans 
as car drivers seem to have - hence the maketeers at Exxon-Mobil with 
their 
constantly changing numbers and bottle shapes and colors.  Also, note 
that 
the advertising says that the TruckSUV is for gasoline engines, 
Diesels 
don't seem to be included.

Anyway, I wouldn't want 5W-30 in my Diesel unless I lived somewhere 
North of 
Calgary.  I like the idea of 15W-40 standing up to the temperatures and 
pressures on my engines!

Some of us old-timers remember the gas crunch days of the 70s, when the 
car 
manufacturers figured out that by using thinner oils, they could save a 
few 
horsepower, and hence improve mileage.  I believe the trend to 0W and 
5W 
oils is rooted in this concept, which is a good idea as long as you get 
rid 
of the car before it gets too many miles on it.  The manufacturers have 
a 
vested interest in getting people to buy new cars - not keep them for 
20-30 
years!

Using too thin and oil was a big part of the downfall of GM and their 
5.7 
V-8 Diesel - GM said to use straight 30W, and the gas stations put in 
10W-40! It had to be better, because it cost more, right? WRONG!
