Synthetic oils should be used in Detroit Diesel engines provided they are API licensed and meet
the performance and chemical requirements outlined in this publication. The oil should be a
PGOS 93K214 approved product for use in EGR equipped engines.
For two-stroke cycle
engines, only synthetic oils which do not contain viscosity improver additives may be used. The
use of synthetic oils does not necessarily assure the extension of the recommended oil drain
intervals beyond the limits
Change oil filters every 250 hours maximum, and service the centrifugal filter based on the filter cake
thickness.
