Optimized Lucas Oil 15W-40 Heavy Duty Motor Oil for Magnum Engines - 1 Gallon (Pack of 4)

Designed to last up to twice as long as plain 15W-40 oils, the Lucas Magnum SAE 15W-40 oil holds much more soot in suspension than conventional 15W-40 oils. This extended drain interval and longer engine life oil also provides protection against dry starts. Additionally, it is the perfect lubricant for hard-working hydrostatic transmissions.

Motor oil is a refined product derived from crude oil, used to lubricate, clean, and cool engines. Various types of motor oil exist, including conventional, synthetic, diesel, bio-based, hybrid (blends of conventional and synthetic), and recycled oils. The weight and viscosity of motor oil, as well as the additives included by manufacturers during the refining process, can vary.

The Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) has developed a numerical code system to grade motor oils based on viscosity. The higher the number between 0 and 60, the more viscous (thicker) the oil. Most consumer motor oils are graded using two numbers, where the first number indicates cold weather (Winter or "W") performance.

This particular oil has an SAE 15W-40 weight, meaning it has a viscosity rating of 15 in cold temperatures and a rating of 40 at normal operating temperature. Always consult your vehicle's owner's manual to ensure this is the correct motor oil weight for your specific model.

As a conventional motor oil, this product is refined from crude oil or petroleum products. Conventional motor oils may or may not have additional additives included after the refining process. These oils are more versatile than synthetic or hybrid motor oils, as they are suitable for use in a wide range of modern vehicle engines, from cars and trucks to motorcycles, ATVs, farm equipment, and more.

The Lucas Magnum SAE 15W-40 oil is designed for use in pre-2007 trucks without diesel particulate filters. It is highly effective in engines using high-sulfur fuels, providing superior lubrication and protection.

In summary, this conventional motor oil is engineered to last significantly longer than standard 15W-40 oils, offering extended drain intervals and enhanced engine life. It also prevents dry starts and is an ideal lubricant for demanding hydrostatic transmissions. By understanding the specifications and intended use of this motor oil, vehicle owners can make an informed decision to ensure the optimal performance and longevity of their engines.
