[C320-list] M30 Perkins oil?

[Jane & Ken]

John, that oil will work, any oil that is formulated for diesel will function okay.  Just be certain that the oil is for a diesel because the oil is a "heavy duty" because of the higher compression pressures .  Ken  OBUOY, #219

My manual and notes for the engine are on the boat but I want to do an oil change this weekend. Does anyone remember what type of  diesel oil the Perkins likes. I think I was using 10-40W diesel Valvoline.  Thanks, John Holokai 2
