OII Recommendations
Only use high quality detergent oil rated with
API service classification SG. Select the oil's
SAE viscosity grade according to your ex-
pected operating temperature. Although mul-
ti-viscasity oils (5W30, 10W30, etc.) improve
starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity
otis will result in increased oil coflsumption
when used above 32 degrees. Check the
engine oil level more frequently to avoid pos-
sible engine damage from running the en-
gine low on oil,
