A3/B4, A5/B5, E2, E3, E4, E5, E7 or JASO grade : DH-1.
The brands/types of oil described ISUZU’s instruction manual can be used regardless
of specified API or ACEA grade above.
Oil viscosity:
Engine oil viscosity largely affect engine startability, performance, oil consumption, speed of
wearing and occurrence of seizure, etc. Using lubricants whose viscosity selected according to
the atmospheric temperature is important.
Fuel selection:
The following specific advantages are required for the diesel fuel.
1) Must be free from minute dust particles.
2) Must have adequate viscosity.
3) Must have high cetane value.
4) Must have high fluidity at low temperature.
5) Must have low sulfur content.
6) Must have little residual carbon.
