API QUALITY CLASSIFICATION
This symbol on the front of an oil container means
that the oil has been certified by the American Petro-
leum Institute (API) to meet all the lubrication
requirements specified by DaimlerChrysler Corpora-
tion.
GEAR LUBRICANTS
SAE ratings also apply to multigrade gear lubri-
cants. In addition, API classification defines the
lubricants usage. Such as API GL-5 and SAE 75W-
90.

API SERVICE GRADE CERTIFIED
DaimlerChrysler Corporation recommends a fully
synthetic API certified engine oil of the proper viscos-
ity grade for refill. 8.3L engine factory fill is Mobil 1t
10W-30.
SAE VISCOSITY
An SAE viscosity grade is used to specify the vis-
cosity of engine oil. Use only engine oils with multi-
ple viscosities such as 5W-30 or 10W-30. These are
specified with a dual SAE viscosity grade which indi-
cates the cold-to-hot temperature viscosity range.
Select an engine oil that is best suited to your par-
ticular temperature range and variation (Fig. 3).
SYNTHETIC ENGINE OILS
The 8.3L engine comes from the factory with Mobil
1t synthetic engine oil. A full synthetic API certified
engine oil of the proper viscosity grade is recom-
mended for refill.
