About the 1981 Mercedes-Benz 240D

Under the hood of your 1981 Mercedes-Benz 240D sits the 2.4L four-cylinder diesel, a compact engine that punches well above its size in longevity. Mercedes designed these engines for commercial-grade duty, and they thrive on disciplined maintenance.

The demands on diesel oil are simple to understand. High cylinder pressures hammer the rod and main bearings, soot from combustion loads up the oil, and the turbocharger, when fitted, lives on the same oil film that lubricates the engine. Shortcuts on oil quality show up first as wear you cannot hear until it is too late.

A full synthetic diesel oil from AMSOIL handles those conditions with ease. Its soot-handling chemistry, thermal stability, and wear protection give the 240D the best chance of reaching the kind of mileage these engines are famous for.
