My only experience with Deutz eng. was very good.The engine had good power,few leaks and no oil consumption. I used 15-40 Chevron Delo. Same oil in Ford pickups and Cat, Cummins truck engines. Still using it in R-72 with M-11 Cummins. Sometimes it's hard to find in North Dakota, but not really a problem. The Deutz was also in R-72 94 mod.
