[The10thBEE]

Specifications

* Exceeds API SM/CF
* ACEA A3/B3
what does this exactly mean?

Question: Explain the Terms on the Oil Bottles such as API SM/CF. What exactly does API SM/CF and SL,SJ,SH,SG mean on the oil bottle?-- Don Haislip, Oak Grove, MO

Answer: API stands for American Petroleum Institute. In this case, API sets the industry standards for passenger and commercial vehicles. These standards are recognized, and in many cases, developed in conjunction with car and lubricant manufacturers, including ExxonMobil. The letters next to API, such as SM, refer to the quality level of the motor oil. In the case of SM, it’s the highest available standard for passenger vehicle. CF is a diesel engine or commercial vehicle standard and the highest current one is CJ-4. More information is available at the API website: www.api.org.

[SIZE=2]ACEA[/SIZE][SIZE=2] = Advisory Committee on Environmental Aspects[/SIZE]
A3 = Gas (Petrol) High performance and / or extended drain
B3 = Diesel / High performance and / or extended drain
Basically A3/B3 is like saying API CF/SL, meaning it is suitable for use in both types of engine.
