The Engine Oil Certification Mark was developed and trademarked by the API to
refer customers to those engine oils preferred by the automobile manufacturers.
This symbol means that the oil has been certified and licensed by the American
Petroleum Institute (API). This certification mark will only be found on the front
of the oil containers. Those oils that do not display the "Mark" on the front of the
container should not be used.
