What Kind
of
Engine Oil
to
Use
Oils recommended for your vehicle can be identified by
looking for the “Starburst” symbol. This symbol
indicates that the oil has been certified by the American
Petroleum Institute
(API).
Do
not use any
oil
which
does not carry this Starburst symbol.
If you change your own
oil, be sure you use oil
that has the Starburst
symbol on the front of the
oil container. If you have
your oil changed
for
you,
be sure the oil put into
your engine
is
American
Petroleum Institute certified
for gasoline engines.
You
should
also
use
the proper viscosity
oil
for
your
vehicle,
