5-23. Fluid Requirements
5-23.1 Diesel Fuel Requirements
Refer to the engine manufacturer’s operator’s manual for proper fuels, additives, and fueling procedures.
5-23.2 Engine Oil Requirements
Maintain engine oil at the proper level. Use engine dipstick to check oil level. Refer to the engine manufacturer’s
operator’s manual for additional information on engine oil types and procedures.
Never blend gasoline, gasohol, alcohol, or other volatile substances with diesel fuel. This practice
creates an extreme fire or explosive hazard that could cause property damage, personal injury, or
death.
2010 EPA & 2013 EPA engines require the use of specific oil and diesel fuel. The diesel fuel to be used
shall be Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel containing 15 parts per million (PPM) sulfur content or less.
Make sure the pump station being used has the proper fuel type when filling your fuel tank. If ultra-low-
sulfur fuel is not used, the engine will not meet emissions regulations, and the After Treatment Device
(ATD) can be damaged. Refer to the engine manufacturer’s operation manual for additional fuel
specifications.
Filling the fuel tank with other liquids can result in premature failure of the engine and/or emission
components.
Detroit engines only:
Engine oil must have sulfate ash levels less than 1.0 weight %. Oils meeting this
requirement are marked as API CJ-4 oil. Using any other oil will cause damage to the ATD. Using oil that
is not CJ-4 compliant for extended periods of time will damage components and require replacement
of the ATD by an approved service facility.
Cummins engines only:
Cummins Inc. recommends that 2010 EPA and beyond engines use a high
quality 15W-40 multi viscosity heavy-duty engine oil that meets the requirements of Cummins
Engineering Standard CES20081/API CJ-4/SL for maximum DPF maintenance intervals. Cummins
allows the use of CES20078/API CI-4/SL oil with no change in oil drain intervals. However, the after-
treatment maintenance interval will be reduced with the use of CES20078/CI-4 oil.
Ford engines only:
Ford recommends the use of high quality 15W-40 motor oil conforming to
specification WSS-M2C171-E.
