  1. With t6 and a good filter you can very easily run the oil out to at least 10,000 miles. I've done oil analysis out to 20,000 on t6 (filter change at 10k) and the oil was still in great shape. If you want to change at 7,500 save some money and switch it back to regular oil. Change it once a year. Dumping 3 gallons of oil every 2,500 miles isn't necessary.
  2. Inline filter will do nothing for the suldge issue your still going to have to flush the system every 30k miles. That is majority of the issue tbe fluid breaks down and suldges up just like engine oil. No filter will fix that issue. Still running on monthly inspections and changing fluids when they discolor or mileage exceeded.
  3. I think because Mike always staying on top of fluids that's why his still on a lot of original stuff. Part of reason I started to try and stay ahead of game and also listened other peoples advice here and put an inline filter for power steering fluid. And something I never considered changing before like brake fluid till parts are changed and I got to bleed the system anyways, now I'm keeping an eye on things and change when I feel needed.
  4. I wouldn't use it either... Like all my gasoline engine I run the fuel system dry and let it die out. Diesel as long as the vehicle is out of the weather you can leave it loaded with fuel with no issues. If being stored in the weather with extreme cold and heat I would be more after changing all fluids out including the fuel being that the tank breathes and it will draw in moisture. Just like the axles, transfer case, and transmission will.
