2. Diesel fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_fuel

   The first diesel engine prototype and the first functional Diesel engine were only designed for liquid fuels. [8] At first, Diesel tested crude oil from Pechelbronn, but soon replaced it with petrol and kerosene, because crude oil proved to be too viscous, [9] with the main testing fuel for the Diesel engine being kerosene . [10]

3. Motor oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

   Using a funnel to assist with a motor oil refill. In petrol (gasoline) engines, the top piston ring can expose the motor oil to temperatures of 160 °C (320 °F). In diesel engines, the top ring can expose the oil to temperatures over 315 °C (600 °F). Motor oils with higher viscosity indices thin less at these higher temperatures. [5]

   n.o.s. = not otherwise specified meaning a collective entry to which substances, mixtures, solutions or articles may be assigned if a) they are not mentioned by name in 3.2 Dangerous Goods List AND b) they exhibit chemical, physical and/or dangerous properties corresponding to the Class, classification code, packing group and the name and description of the n.o.s. entry [4]

5. Diesel engine - Wikipedia

   1952 Shell Oil film showing the development of the diesel engine from 1877. The diesel engine, named after the German engineer Rudolf Diesel, is an internal combustion engine in which ignition of the fuel is caused by the elevated temperature of the air in the cylinder due to mechanical compression; thus, the diesel engine is called a compression-ignition engine (CI engine).

6. Shell Rotella - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_Rotella

   Shell Rotella is a line of heavy-duty engine lubrication products produced by Shell plc.The line includes engine oils, gear oils and coolants. The oil carries both the American Petroleum Institute (API) diesel "C" rating as well as the API gasoline engine "S" rating.

7. Heavy fuel oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heavy_fuel_oil

   Also known as bunker fuel, or residual fuel oil, HFO is the result or remnant from the distillation and cracking process of petroleum. For this reason, HFO contains several different compounds that include aromatics , sulfur , and nitrogen , making emissions upon combustion more polluting compared to other fuel oils. [ 1 ]

8. SAE J300 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J300

   Michael Covitch of Lubrizol, Chair of the SAE International Engine Oil Viscosity Classification (EOVC) task force was quoted stating "If we continued to count down from SAE 20 to 15 to 10, etc., we would be facing continuing customer confusion problems with popular low-temperature viscosity grades such as SAE 10W, SAE 5W, and SAE 0W," he noted.

9. EN 590 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EN_590

   The EN 590 had been introduced along with the European emission standards.With each of its revisions the EN 590 had been adapted to lower the sulphur content of diesel fuel – since 2007 this is called ultra-low-sulphur diesel as the former function of sulphur as a lubricant is absent (and needs to be replaced by additives).
