Just got 2 One gallon jugs of Rotella T 15w-40 from my local autozone. They had 2 different ones.

I got the older(?) Not-as-emmisions-friendly jugs for $13.49 each.

Mine reads: Meets API SERVICE CJ-4, CI-4PLUS, CH-4, CG-4, CF-4, CF/SM, SL, SJ.

Hope I got the right one or as they say, the lesser of two evils.




If the API specs begins with CJ-4, then you got the newer CJ-4 and not the earlier CI-4+

As it goes, they tell us the CJ-4 is backwards compatible with the previous specs: CI-4PLUS, CH-4, CG-4, CF-4, CF/SM, SL, SJ.

Of course we've heard the term backwards compatible before when the API (SM) spec came out, and we know how that one panned out.
