You need to run it long enough to drive the water out of the oil...ie get the oil over 212 degrees F. Usually that takes some highway running.

Yes, diesels get water in the oil from condensation but it is a much smaller amount of water.

Never change your oil, and save the EARTH and possibly your children's limbs or life!

Thanks Joe,

the water in gassers gets into the oil caused it's forced past the rings and valve springs, so surf was right about that.

[quote=240Joe;1437335]Water is not a byproduct of diesel combustion, soot is. Water IS a byproduct of gasoline combustion.

Water is a major byproduct of the combustion of any hydrocarbon.
