My old man is a retired White Tractor and New Holland mechanic. For years we used Amoco 200 HD in EVERYTHING. Gas, Diesel, LP, turbo or non-turbo. When we couldn't get Amoco anymore, we switched to Rotella. I can't think of any oil related issues. There's 60 and 70 year old gas tractors out there still being used.

I know the experts say that the ZDDP clogs cat converters, but if there's that much oil blow -by getting into the exhaust, I would think there is a bigger problem, like valve seals or worn out rings.
