According to Cummins there is only about a 3% difference between 15w-40 and 0-20 oil, for fuel economy.
I interviewed for Cummins to work in their engineering department and they are so mixed up and confused I would not put full faith in any information from them.

Some of the world's best engines though. But it's an old formula they keep repeating.
