Oil Drain Intervals for Specific Regions Not Using ULSD

The oil drain intervals for the engines listed in the table below are based on engines operating in specific regions not using Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) with a Detroit Fluids Specification DFS 93K222, DFS 93K218 and DFS 93K214 approved oil. API CK-4/CJ-4/CI-4 Plus or equivalent certified oil that is not Detroit Fluids Specification approved may be used at reduced drain intervals. These intervals should be considered as maximum and should not be exceeded. Oil drain intervals are based on duty cycle and may need to be reduced depending on customer operation and application.
