So I'm bored here at work thinking deep, Have 206k on my 01, factory VP.

 

Im second owner, bought at 120k miles December of 2015. Previous owner hauled camper to Florida and back and maintained it with regular oil and filter changes all documented. 

 

First thing I did was on my way home order a Air dog rapotor factory replacement. 2 days later it showed up and ran fleetguard fs19855 filters with 5k miles changes. That pump died in August of 2017.

 

Then a Fass titanium 165 was put on and I ran the factory Fass filters for 11k miles and am doing 15k mile changes on fleetguard fs1000 and CAT IR0750.

 

And every oil change I buy a 16oz silver bottle of Power Service n run it through accordingly. Then in winter I run the white bottle power service stuff pretty much every fill up. Oh and I'm pretty good about draining water separator.

 

So my question is, should I as preventive maintenance replace my VP44. I plan of getting a 2 year warranty one from Thoroughbred diesel. Living in Wyoming and my lifestyle and job putting me in remote places and on the road alot being stranded isn't a option. I've done reading and found some older post on various sites. The post are mixed with lots of my electronics died at 30k and my factory one lasted 400k. So do I gamble on my Uber anal maintenance getting me high milage or do I just replace it? Thanks

Old nozzle.  Running that oil.  All soft soot that wipes off real nice.

Now we need a pic of the new nozzle with the new oil for proof that we should switch to that oil too. 

That nozzle was running the outdoor two stroke.  Issa old nozzle cause they're not in the trok anymore.  New nozzles haven't been pulled since they've only been in a week and I don't wanna touch them.

So the picture is of the nozzle after running the Pennzoil or the Supertech?

The Pennzoil 

85k miles of SuperTech... Mixed at 128:1 ratio of 2 cycle oil to fuel.

 

My last pump went 243k miles before the timing piston seized in the full advanced position.
