PENNZOIL® GOLD SYNTHETIC BLEND motor oil with Active Cleansing Agents continuously help prevent dirt and contamination from turning into performance robbing deposits, helping keep your engine clean to maintain responsiveness.
PENNZOIL® GOLD SYNTHETIC BLEND motor oil meets or exceeds the warranty requirements for gasoline engines where API SM, ILSAC GF-4, SAE10W-30 motor oil is recommended. It contains unique anti-wear additives to protect the engine during punishing short trips and is specially formulated to provide extra cleansing protection for vehicles operating under heavy loads.
APPLICATION
PENNZOIL® GOLD SYNTHETIC BLEND motor oil 10W-30 can be used in many application in gasoline engines, domestic and foreign, including passenger cars, light-duty trucks, vans and sport utility vehicles (including turbocharged). It meets or exceeds the demanding requirements of the ILSAC GF-4 and the API SM Service Classification.
Always consult your owner's manual for the correct viscosity choice and specification grade of oil required. Viscosity recommendations often allow a range of viscosities based on local temperatures. SAE 10W-30 applications include several specialty and truck applications for different manufacturers. This was the predominant grade of oil in the mid-1990s and is still recommended for some higher temperature applications.
