What kind of engine oil should I use in a Toyota 2.3L 3-cylinder diesel? I plan to use a 20w. It's in an AC 6140.

I think you mean a Toyosha engine. Most asian diesels that I have, I use 15w40...  ------------- Source: Babylon Bee. Sponsored by BRAWNDO, its got what you need! |

| I use shell rotella T 15-40 in my Yanmar 2020D and in my 52 CA, I ran it in all my road tractors up until retirement. Good oil. |

| You are correct - It is a Toyosha engine. (Dang spell check) I was interested in the oil brand to use and the Rotella sounds good. Your opinion on synthetic? |
