How to Select Lubricating Oil
Refer to DDC-SVC-BRO-0001 for more information.
Detroit Fluids Specification (DFS) DFS 93K223 (API FA-4) or DFS 93K222
(API CK-4) oils are recommended for use in the engine.
For optimal fuel economy, use DFS 93K223 approved API FA-4 engine oil.
Cold Weather Starting
NOTICE:
Monograde oils should not be used in the engine, regardless of
API service classification. Monograde oils gel at lower ambient
temperatures, reducing lubricant flow, and do not provide adequate lubricity
at higher engine operating temperatures resulting in severe engine
damage.
For picking a lubricant for low temperature applications refer to the section "How
to Select Lubricating Oil". See
DDC-SVC-BRO-0001
.
Use of Synthetic Oils
NOTE:
Synthetic oil does not permit extension of recommended oil drain
intervals.
