The temperatures mentioned in the table are the ambient
temperatures at the time when the engine is started.
However, if the running temperatures are much higher than the
starting temperatures, a compromise must be struck and a
higher viscosity oil used, providing starting is satisfactory.
Multigrade oils overcome the problem, provided they have a
suitable specification.
The engines must be run on heavy duty lubricating oils,
meeting the requirements of API CC, DEF2101D, MIL-L-2104B or
MIL-L-46152A/B. Straight mineral oils are not suitable,
neither are oils of less detergency than specified.
API CD, Series 3, or MIL-L-2104C/D oils can inhibit the
running-in process in new or reconditioned engine but can be
recommended for engines running at high load factor,
particularly in conjunction with high ambient temperatures.
Following or equivalent types of oils may be used:
