ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER CHANGE






API CLASSIFICATIONS OF ENGINE OIL
The International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) and American Petroleum Institute classifies engine oils according to their performance quality. Always use oil rated API-SJ (ILSAC GF-II) or better.

ENGINE OIL VISCOSITY

NOTICE: Using engine oils of any viscosity other than those viscosities recommended could result in engine damage.

Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather operation. Lower viscosity engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance; however, higher temperature weather conditions require higher viscosity engine oils for satisfactory lubrication. Using oils of any viscosity other than those viscosities recommended could result in engine damage.

SAE 5W-30, SAE 10W-30, SAE 15W-40 (Cold area: SAE 5W-30 Hot area: SAE 15W-40
