Technical Data Sheet

Fuel Economy Gasoline engine lubricant

100% Synthetic Fuel Economy engine oil specially formulated for recent gasoline engines, naturally aspirated or turbocharged, indirect or direct injection, designed to use engine oil with low friction and low HTHS (High Temperature High Shear) viscosity (≥ 2.9 mPa.s).
Suitable for modern gasoline engines requiring a viscosity grade 30 and fuel economy lubricant (API SP-RC, API SP and/or ILSAC GF-6a standards).
Compatible with catalytic converters.
This type of oil may be unsuitable for use in some engines. Refer to the owner manual if in doubt.

The API SP standard is fully backward compatible over API SN standard and all former API standards. The API SP-RC "Resource Conserving" specification is even more demanding on the energy saving requirements.

API SP lubricants provide outstanding oxidation resistance, better anti-deposits protection, better engine cleanliness, anti-wear protection and enhanced performance at cold temperature for Fuel Economy savings during the whole oil life span.

Besides being backward compatible, compare to API SN and API SN Plus, the API SP standard provides higher performance and especially adds protection against LSPI for downsized direct injection turbocharged gasoline engines.

Turbocharged gasoline engines with direct injection have a certain risk of sporadic pre-ignition phenomena in the combustion chambers. This type of sporadic abnormal combustion resembles metallic noise from combustion chambers and is sometimes associated with a short power loss. This phenomenon called LSPI for Low Speed Pre-Ignition, or also Rumble, generates very high pressure peaks in the combustion chamber that can lead to piston damages and ultimately to engine destruction. The API SP standard fully covers this LSPI requirement in order to perfectly protect direct injection turbocharged gasoline engines facing the risk of these abnormal combustions

Based on the API SP specification, the ILSAC GF-6a standard for viscosity grade 30 lubricants is even more severe especially on the Fuel Economy benefits performance. The requirements on the low viscosity "Fuel Economy" side of the lubricant, but also extended drain intervals, pistons/rings cleanliness, seals compatibility and reduced content of Phosphorus for after treatment systems compatibility are enhanced. The ILSAC GF-6a specification ensures perfect engine protection when gasoline containing up to 85% Ethanol is used (E85).

Some OEMs require for their most recent Gasoline engines an API SP-RC, API SP, API SN, SN-RC, SN Plus and ILSAC GF-6a or GF-5 lubricant to guarantee the maximum performance and durability. The CHRYSLER specification MS-6395 (GF-4 level), FORD WSS-M2C953-A1 and FORD WSS-M2C953-B1 (GF-5 levels) and FORD WSS-M2C963-A1 (GF-6 and SP-RC levels) reflect these kinds of requirements.

MOTUL 8100 Eco-lite 0W-30 provides high lubricating properties such as wear protection and high temperature resistance for better controlled oil consumption. The viscosity grade SAE 0W-30 minimizes oil hydrodynamic friction, allowing fuel economy especially when oil is cold. Improves oil flow at start up, faster oil pressure build up, faster rev raisings and faster operating temperature reach.

Environment friendly, this type of oil allows fuel consumption reduction and therefore minimizes greenhouse gases (CO2) emissions.

How to use image
Drain interval: according to manufacturers’ recommendations and tune to your own use. 
MOTUL 8100 Eco-lite 0W-30 can be mixed with synthetic or mineral oils.
Before use always refer to the owner manual or handbook of the vehicle.
