Energy conserving oil

SJ is hard to find because it is an outdated standard.  Your owner's manual
probably says something like "use SJ or higher."

The way the oil standards work, the higher in the alphabet the second letter
is, the more current the standard is.  The standards are set so they
supersede previous standards.

I believe that the current standard is SM, so SM supersedes and replaces SL,
which replaces SJ.

Bottom line, look for and use SM.  If SN or SP comes out in the future, use
that.

"There is no difference between communism and socialism, except in the
means of achieving the same ultimate end: communism proposes to enslave men
by force, socialism - by vote. It is merely the difference between murder
and suicide."  -- Ayn Rand, from "Foreign Policy Drains U.S. of Main
Weapons"

You're welcome!  The method for lettering the standards is not explained in
owner's manuals, something that IMO should be included.
