| Havoline® Motor Oil
Different grades for customized performance.
- SAE 5W-20 provides optimum fuel economy and durability performance. It is specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of newer Ford and Honda vehicles that specify 5W-20 oil.
- SAE 5W-30 is recommended for use at very low temperatures involving cold starting, and for high fuel economy. The majority of auto manufacturers recommend SAE 5W-30 for most of their late model North American vehicles, under all weather conditions.
- SAE 10W-30 is recommended for many older vehicles and a few late model cars and trucks, often those with larger 6-cylinder and V-8 and/or high performance engines. SAE 10W-30 provides improved fuel economy relative to heavier viscosity grades.
- SAE 10W-40 is still a very popular viscosity grade in warmer climates, though it is not recommended by most manufacturers for their late model North American vehicles. It is often recommended for older model cars that see regular high temperature operation.
- SAE 20W-50 is recommended primarily for older engines for use in high temperature and heavy duty operations such as towing heavy trailers at highway speeds or up inclines for long periods of time. It is also recommended for high performance engines used in racing and rallying.
Havoline single grade SAE 30 and SAE40 can be used in any engine application where an SAE 30 or SAE 40 passenger car motor oil of API SL or any previous "S" category is recommended. They perform exceptionally well in small four-stroke engines-- as in lawn mowers, garden tractors, and snow blowers. They also perform well in refrigeration or air-conditioning engines on trucks and buses where oxidation stability and high temperature control are of primary importance.
Note: Chevron recommends that you always consult your vehicle's owner's manual regarding viscosity grade. |
