Overview
The Lucas Oil Synthetic 15W-40 CJ-4 Oil, part number 10298, is a synthetic 15W-40 oil from the Lucas Magnum CJ-4 line, blended with Lucas additives. It suits gasoline and diesel engines and is intended to protect both new and older engines.
The additives are formulated to help maintain the life of emission control systems. The oil resists oxidation and thermal breakdown and is designed to reduce oil consumption and engine wear. Oil is usually changed because combustion by-products contaminate it rather than because it wears out, and its high detergent action keeps up to twice as much contamination in suspension while maintaining lubrication.
Key features
- Magnum CJ-4 formulation
- Lucas additives aimed at emission control system life
- Resists oxidation and thermal breakdown
- Suitable for gasoline and diesel engines
- High detergent action holds contamination in suspension
Choosing the right oil grade
Engine oil grade matters more than brand when it comes to protecting your engine. A 15W-40 viscosity grade flows at cold start and keeps a protective film at operating temperature, so use the grade and service category your engine calls for. Match both the viscosity and the CJ-4 category before buying, and avoid assuming that a heavier oil is automatically safer.
Synthetic oils tend to hold their viscosity over a wider temperature range and resist breakdown under heat, which suits engines that run hot or carry heavy loads. Oil change timing depends on driving conditions, filter quality and how the oil looks on the dipstick, so check condition as well as mileage. Keeping the crankcase at the correct level is part of the same job.
- Check oil level between changes
- Replace the filter with each oil change
- Note dark or gritty oil between service intervals
