This is a 30 year old truck, GM 7000 series, "rode hard and put away wet" by the previous owner, a budget tree service guy. I doubt he ever changed the oil and when he add to add some, he just put in anything he had sitting around. There's probably some bar & chain oil, some 30 weight, and some 2-cycle engine oil in the mix. On the other hand since it was originally a utility company truck, they may have used flame-retardant oil.
