I got to top off my oil because there is a minor leak....i got some slick 50 diesel engine oil stuff......should I be scared or would it be a bad thing?

I will be changing the oil in about 2500 and swapping to synthetic for what its worth.

Thanks for the quick responses. I am bailing out of town in 3 hrs on the 2500 mile road trip.

I wouldnt use it. That stuff can cause foaming which is very bad for our injectors

Agreed...it was an impluse buy since it was on clearance for a quart.......I'll just do my swap to synthetic when I get back into town.

Thanks.
