Default Quick Oil Question

Hey Guys,

Sorry for the lame question . I searched but didn't see a clear answer in the gazillion oil related threads.

I am changing the oil in my 2000 Disco 2, and bought the oil (Rotella) but when I got home I noticed it was for diesel engines. Is it OK to use in my non-diesel motor?

Thanks!

Andy

Yes its the correct oil. It will trap more of the waste byproducts related to combustion cycle. Its the best choice for the rover engine.

It is for both diesel and gasoline engines. If you read the lable you will see that it is rated CJ-4/SM. C is for compression / diesel, S for spark. Provided that the gas engine needs a SM rating or lower, you are fine.
