oil for both gas and diesel

After a few Castrol oil changes on my diesel I now use Delo 15-something. I've read on these posts that it's more than adequate for my diesel and it's approved for its use by the SAE, API or some other acronymed organization. Regarding gas engines i've without good reason always used Castrol multi weight and relied on regular oil/filter changes to make the engines last.

i'm trying to simplyfy inventory so which oil should I choose for both cars; gas and diesel? I change often enough, every 4K miles max, with equal hwy/city driving time. Not interested in synthetics at this time.

firestormer says if it's good enough for diesels its good enough for us. I guess that includes gassers too?
