Gasoline Engine Oils

Passenger Car Motor Oil (PCMO)

API (American Petroleum Institute) service categories for PCMOs. The API service categories are a set of specifications that define the performance requirements for engine oils used in internal combustion engines. These categories are developed to keep pace with advancements in engine technology, environmental regulations, and the evolving needs of the automotive industry.

Gasoline engines are also referred to as Spark Ignition Engines. Use of letter ‘S’ in the API specifications for gasoline engines denotes exactly that—Spark Ignition.

As the API specifications evolve to meet the demands of modern engine designs and emission regulations, it becomes evident that later specs systematically supersede the earlier ones, progressing upon their achievements.

API service categories are designed to help consumers and service professionals identify the appropriate engine oil for specific vehicles and ensure that the oil meets the performance requirements of the latest engine technologies. It’s important for vehicle owners to use the recommended API service category specified by the vehicle manufacturer to ensure proper engine protection.

Other Specification categories:

ILSAC
ACEA
JASO
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer)
