How to Select Lubricating Oil (EPA07)
How to Select Lubricating Oil for EPA07 - Ops
Refer to DDC-SVC-BRO-0001
for more information.
Detroit Fluid Specification
DFS 93K222 (API CK-4) oils are recommended for use in the engine.
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.
Note: Synthetic oil does
not permit extension of recommended oil drain intervals.
Synthetic oils may be used in Detroit™ engines provided
they are approved by a DFS. The use of synthetic oils does
not necessarily ensure the extension of the recommended oil drain
intervals beyond the limits.
Use of Supplemental Additives
Lubricants meeting
the Detroit™ specifications outlined in this publication already contain
a balanced additive treatment. Supplemental additives are generally
not necessary and can even be harmful. These additives may be marketed
as either oil treatments or engine treatments and are discouraged
from use in Detroit™ engines.
Engine damage resulting
from the use of such materials is not covered by your Detroit™ warranty.
Detroit™ will not provide statements beyond this publication relative
to their use.
