- spoon059Explorer IIJust changed mine recently to CK-4 Delo 400.
- amxpressExplorerJust received from Amsoil my order of 5W40 Signature Series MaxDuty diesel oil. It happens to meet CK-4/CJ-4 specs. I checked the spec sheet, am I missing something?

Hope you have already bought the CJ-4 Rotella. If it is in the new bottle it could be CK-4 that was labeled as CJ-4. Go to slide 7 and it will tell when they were putting CK-4 in the bottles but not changing the labeling.Rotella - Stick with a CK-4 API oil and avoid a CK-4/SN oil for now.
