Dear Customer,
There are so many engine oils that it is very difficult to make a choice. So here are a few reasons to believe why Valvoline Cummins has the very best CF-4/SH oil to offer.

Q1 : Do you know which engine oil does Cummins India use for the initial fill?
Ans : Valvoline Power Supreme 15W-40 engine oil, a premium product of Valvoline Cummins Ltd. Is Filled by the OEMs before the engines are despatched. This oil conforms to API CF-4/SH classification to achieve optimum performance from the Cummins engines.
Q2 : Do you know when Valvoline Cummins Ltd. Was born in India?
Ans : During the mid 90’s many oil companies were coming into India. Cummins was keen to develop the most suitable oil for Cummins engines. As far as Cummins was concerned, Valvoline was the right choice as a consequence of the worldwide association of these two giants. In India, Cummins India Ltd. Provided the engine expertise and Valvoline, the oil expertise which lead to the formulation of Valvoline Power Supreme, a 15W-40 API CF-4/SH Engine Oil. Valvoline Power Select, a 20W-40 API CD plus Mack T7 Engine Oil is also present in the range.
The Indian joint venture took shape during early 1998. It was the time when Cummins thirst for a truly world class lubricant was quenched. An exclusive pack design for Cummins range only, was developed. This wavy design has a crimson red label for the Supreme grade and a blur label for the select grade. In January, 1999, Cummins India Ltd. Has recommended the use of API CF-4/SH SAE 15W-40 Multi-grade lubricating oil for all Cummins Diesel engines.
Q3 : Why CF-4/SH Oils are better than the CD Oils?
Ans : First introduced in 1990, API CF-4/SH was the consequence of continual upgradation of engine performance for improved engine life. The major differential parameters between API CD and API CF-4/SH oil are as given below:

Q4.: But how is Valvoline Power Supreme the best choice for Cummins Engine?
Ans : Valvoline Power Supreme CF-4/SH oil gives you certain advantages which makes
it stand apart from the rest:
· Reduced wear and Tear.
· Better high temperature oxidation stability
· Optimum lube consumption
· Lesser crown land deposits on piston and valves
· Better emission control
· Better cleanliness of internal passage and components
· Less sludge formation due to improved dispersancy
· Increased control on acid formation avoids corrosion of bearings and other
Components.
Thus Valvoline Power Supreme helps to optimize engine performance by selecting additive package that holds the soot particles in suspension and keeps them from interfering with the lubricating system.
Last but not the least it also meets European OEM specification i.e., MB228.L, Volve VDS, MAN 27l, MTU Type 1 etc.
Q5. Valvoline ! How much does it know your needs?
Ans : Valvoline knows and provides for all your needs -
Way back in 1866 it was the first oil company to recommend the right oil to
lubricate the valves of steam engines. A solid 133 years of experience has enabled
them to develop Valvoline Power Supreme oil with unique Dispersion Polymer
Technology (DPT) to minimize the adverse effect of soot on modern engine
ensuring longer life.
Q6 : What technology do Valvoline and Cummins share in product development ?
Ans : Worldwide, Valvoline and Cummins have got together and produced Valvoline
Premium Blue, a unique oil, which meets not only the API CH4 standard for 1998,
but also Cummins CES 20076 performance requirements for 1999. This
association shares technology to bring out a whole new level in engine lubrication
performance with engines, filters and oil designed to work as a total system for
extended service and increased protection.
In India, Valvoline and Cummins have teamed up to bring out Valvoline Power
Supreme SAE 15W-40 Engine oil with API CF-4/SH classification as most
preferred oil for Cummins engines.
Q.7 : Have you experienced the unique Valvoline POST services ?
Ans : Valvoline POST (The Progressive Oil Sample Testing) is a unique service with the help of which optimum drain interval can be determined for your engines. POST is designed to analyze the quality of engine oil at progressive intervals. Thus, based on the critical parameters of engine operations and running conditions, tailor made recommendations are created concerning proper lubricating and maintenance interval. Under the POST program, the following services are given:
· Regular sample taken for analysing in laboratory
· Prompt reporting on oil condition and its suitability for further use.
· Assessment of engine oil condition to identify abnormal wear phenomena, if any
· Prevent premature engine failure by timely identifying the problem area.
Through POST, Valvoline is with you for solving the problem before it happens! And all this service extended at a nominal charge.
Q.8 : What you can expect from POST ?
Ans : Valvoline team shows you the advantage of POST program and help you to keep
more engine more “on the job and out of shop.”
Valvoline POST program is a productive and proventive maintenance program,
which will help you to achieve the following:
· Decrease down time - by detecting contaminant such as water, fuel dilution,
wear metals, silica etc.,that can cause unscheduled down time and costly
repairs.

· Extend component life - by monitoring individual component wear and tear
you schedule you maintenance rather than your maintenance scheduling you.

· Optimize oil drain interval - by carefully monitoring the oil quality and its
condition, while applying this information to each engines operating condition
and service interval.
Q9 : What is service support edge of Valvoline Cummins Limited ?
Ans : Valvoline has widespread network in over 100 countries all over the world ranging
from construction sites to mine bottoms to railroads across the country right to the
local shop floor. In India, Valvoline has 40 C&F locations servicing the 90
