Rotella T foaming?

[Austinj427]

I put rotella T in my truck (15w 40) and talked to my uncle shortly after (he has a 7.3 aswell) he told me not to use the Rotella because it foams really bad and can tear some stuff up. I talked to a buddy of mine today too and he said that he had heard the same thing about it. I had never heard this before but what do you guys know about it??

im gonna say wut u heard is not true i would bet that 60 percent or more of the ppl on here use it or have used it i would think somethin like that would have already been said

Have not heard of it foaming. I have always used Rotella but this oil change I will be switching to Motorcraft for a change.

He heard? He'll need proof. I have never seen in in either of my trucks. I have ver 200K in both trucks.


They say. Who are THEY?

ditto, my truck has over 200K with nothing but rotella and I have never had a problem, neither did the previous owner.

Right. Thats why I was asking on the org for the purpose of finding out some reason behind this. One of my uncles pitcrew men is the head diesel mechanic at ford in Billings, MT (thats where I believe he learned about the foaming) . I think my buddy read it on competition diesel.
