FWIW I have used Rotella 10W-40 (a great oil for diesel engines, very high detergency & additive pack) for years in my TR with no ill effects. Oil pressure remains what it was 20K miles ago. I also r

It's a common misconception that silicone hydraulics don't need to be flushed/bled. Moisture still accumulates in a silicone system, but instead of mixing with the fluid, the water simply pools in lo
