OK ONLY if 5% new lube oil is blended with these fuels to increase the lubricity to acceptable level.
Caution: Do NOT use diesel fuel blended with lube oil in engines equipped with a catalytic convertor
(including all model year 1994 and beyond). Damage to legally required emission control may result.
NOTE: Any adjustment to compensate for reduced performance with a fuel system using alternate fuel is
not warrantable. NOTE: Wear on any mid-ranged fuel pump component attributed to the lack of
lubrication in the fuel is not a warrantable repair.

OilPerformanceRecommendations
The use of quality engine lubricating oils combined with appropriate oil drain and filter change intervals
are critical factors in maintaining engine performance and durability.
Cummins Engine Company, Inc. recommends the use of a high quality SAE 15W-40 heavy duty engine
oil (such as Cummins Premium Blue) which meets the American Petroleum Instilute (API) performance
classification CE/SG.
NOTE: CC / CD or CD / SF engine oils can be used in areas where CE oil is not yet available, but the oil
change interval must be reduced to one half the interval given in the maintenance schedule.
A sulfated ash limit of 1.0 mass percent is suggested for optimum valve and piston deposit and oil
consumption control. The sulfated ash must not exceed 1.85 mass percent.
