Rotella is just really bad for smell, I dont know what it is about the oil, but there was always this sulfury bad oil smell when I was running it in my truck. As soon as I switched to anything else it went away. I haven't tried Delvac, but I don't think it'd be any worse than Rotella

Rotella = RoSmella

Yeap that stuff stinks bad... But it does tend to go away after a bit.

As for myself I've been running Chevron Delo 15w-40 and that don't have a odor...
