ELF ENGINE LUBRICANTS

ILSAC/OIL contributes to the passenger car motor oil specification process by
verifying the need for a new specification and setting final testing limits. These testing
limits are ultimately certified by the American Petroleum Institute (API).
With the help of its technical and R&D departments, the TOTAL group has successfully
reformulated top-tier product ranges to reflect these more stringent requirements.
These new, better performing formulas once again exceed the shared expectations
of the most demanding automobile manufacturers.

ELF lubricants protect even the most

fragile engine parts against deposit.

Engine protection is reinforced thanks to long-lasting performances. Indeed
crietria such as deposit formation on piston at high temperatures (Sequence IIIG) and
sludge control (Sequence VG) have been increased.

The result show that even after 96

hours of intense testing the oil still
keeps all its promises regarding
Fuel Economy properties.

Sequence IIIGB

The test is used to ensure perfect
compatibility of the oil with Three Way
Catalyst converters. Indeed the volatility of
the phosphorus components contained in
the oil is reduced. Polluting emissions are
therefore reduced according to OEMs most
recent requirements.
