Schaeffer still has a few oils with extra zinc for flat tappet cams. I use their 20/50 racing oil in my old Jaguar. You can get it from 30 to 70 straight weight or from 5/50,10/30,15/40, or 20/50. Conventional, semi synthetic, or full synthetic.

Big trucks is what I know. HAZMAT is what I tow.
If you don't mind me asking, what do you pay for that drum ? I sell wholesale and new customers get free shipping with a $500 order or more and you get a case of grease with 6 test tube's if you elect to do oil analysis when you buy a drum. Lower 48 states it pertains to.
Just checked. No drums in stock. All I can get is 3/1 cases at $88 each. Crazy eights.

It’s barge season and tons of product is being containerized and shipped. To all the major projects going on in the state. To add to the mayhem, our tides this summer just suck. We don’t have another series of high tides until August.

Plus one of the 2 TOTE barges broke down.

Thanks Icehole. A drum of Schaeffers 9000 5/40 OTR is just South of $1,800.
I misspoke on that, that's about my price (employees get it slightly above cost. I'm probably the only one that buys much. Guess no one else has a small fleet of elderly iron that have the incontinence)

Customer price is around $1700-1800ish.

I used to work for Delta Western in high school, I worked the dock and tank farm in Nikiski at OSK. I see they were bought out by what became Inlet Energy?

Saltchuk purchased Delta Western.

Then, saltchuck purchased Inlet Petroleum Co.and changed the name to Delta Western, then again to Delta Western Petroleum, then to Inlet Energy.

But, the other Alaska terminals remained Delta Western Petroleum under the NorthStar Energy Umbrella.

The Wrangell terminal was sold to Petro.
The Dillingham terminal was sold to BBA.
