Subject:Re: can you use DELO 10W-40 in a Vanagon?

The Delo is rated for gasoline and Diesel use. The additives that are
needed for Diesel use to control acid and soot tend to be harmful to
catalytic converters. That is why many of the newer oils that the latest
gasoline specs (SL) are not suitable for Diesel use.
