Thanks for the input. I wondered if the MMO was partly to blame, but I figured it would have dissolved fairly evenly once in the fuel tank. Maybe not though. I suppose it could've sat at the bottom of the tank and gotten sucked up first.

I didn't consider the 10w-30 possibly being an issue. I'll watch it for a while and see if it continues. If so I'll go back to 15w-40. I didn't have much if any issue while I was running that. Some, but not like today.

Regarding Rotella and Delo, I'm not sure what the formulation is as of right now. It's possible that it changed within the last few years. That information is hard to find online, and who knows if the sources are reliable. If my guys at Napa are right then it seems they have removed most of the zinc with the last few years.
