hi all,
went to change oil in hdj81 today, ordered filter from Toyo dealer turned out to be wrong one (15600-41010). Found this out after wrecking the old one getting it off, lesson learned? use the right tool for the right job.
no problem ordered the right one (90915-30002) but truck is sitting in driveway useless until it comes in. btw $35 for this filter, have to shop around.
went to Shell today and picked up a case of Rotella 5w40 syn (4x4L) for $92.
so I'm gonna change the oil and filter now at 160000km, send away an oil analysis ($18 from Shell) at 165000km and again at 170000km to try and determine best oil change interval for me.
will keep you informed.
think I'll try and find a tool that is big enough to get the friggin filter off too...
