My query is regarding the viscosity of oil after deleting dpf portions.

Good day. I had the software removed and removed the dpf and egr files. Could you tell me if a slightly thicker oil would work? During a recent service, I installed a used but brand new sump; however, I had to remove it again due to a small amount of oil leaking from the sealer. The oil is like water dripping out; once it cools, it's just like water dripping back in. Is it okay to use an oil that is slightly thicker? Use 5/30 triple q at the moment. I am grateful. 2.02 liters, 14 horsepower. Uploaded again.

I was wondering how much oil you had. Did it go up?

[ravi.pateluv]

No. Here it is after the dpf and egr have been deleted. End of regens. Hence, the oil will no longer contain diesel. Only a couple hundred miles have been put into this fresh oil. Comparable to water. I'm hoping for something thicker.

The use of a poor sealant will allow even the thickest oil to seep through.
Remove the skillet from the oven. Take great care when cleaning, and inspect for any damage. Put a fresh seal on top of it and dab a little rtv on either side. After waiting 30 minutes, hand-tighten the fasteners to a moderate tension.
Be careful not to overtighten the fasteners, as this can lead to the deformation and leakage of numerous sumps.

Also, wait until the sealant has cured for at least one night before adding more. Because of the lack of curing time, I have witnessed numerous sumps leaking.

Good day. That was already done by me. Applying a somewhat thicker oil was the primary focus of my inquiry. Can I use 5/40 on my engine without problems?
