A diesel engine uses Type A filter and high-grade lubricating oil costing P5.50 per liter. With this filter, the oil and the filter have to be changed every 500 hours of operation, and 5 liters of coil have to be added every 100 hours. This filter costs P148 a piece. Eighty liters of coil fill the engine. Another type, filter B, costing P120 may be used with a lower grade of oil costing P4.80 per liter. However, if this filter is used, the oil and filter have to be changed every 300 hours, and 10 liters are added after each 150 hours the engine is used. Which type of filter and oil would you recommend?
