   Regarding use of this Costco Chevron Delo 400SDE CK-4/SN   
   SAE 15W40 diesel engine oil in a gasoline engine...   
   o    
      
   Long story short, I just want to ask advice of the "what oil" type,   
   only it's quite a different question than one might normally expect.   
      
   Visiting a neighbor and noticing these 3 gallons of Costco oil in his   
   garage I remarked that he must have a diesel somewhere, and he said, nope.   
      
   He puts this stuff in his gasoline engine vehicles.   
   o Chevron Delo 400SDE CK-4/SN SAE 15W40   
      
   He can do what he wants, where I only remarked that I was surprised that it   
   'works' but I didn't have any experience or knowledge why it wouldn't work.   
      
   Do you?   
   --   
   The difference between knowledge & experience is you know what works & why.   
   (and what doesn't work, and why)
