Q8Oils introduces Formula Exclusive Eco 5W-20. The new Passenger Car Motor Oil for Ford EcoBoost engines
Leeds, UK – Tuesday, 04 June 2013 – Kuwait Petroleum International Lubricants (Q8Oils) has introduced a fuel-economy-improving, ultra-high-performance SAE 5W-20 synthetic engine oil to meet Ford’s latest M2C 948-B specification for EcoBoost engines.
The low viscosity Q8 Formula Exclusive Eco 5W-20 passenger car motor oil has been specially developed by Q8Oils for Ford EU’s vehicles with normally aspirated or turbo-charged gasoline engines requiring a low SAPS engine oil. The new engine oil meets Ford M2C 948-B and ACEA C1 and A5/B5-07 specifications, is suitable for Euro V EcoBoost engine types and is backwards compatible with Ford M2C 925-B applications.
Commenting for Q8Oils, automotive manager Andy Harris says: “Developed for the latest generation Euro V Ford EcoBoost engines, Q8 Formula Exclusive Eco 5W-20 can deliver a fuel economy improvement of up to 0.9% or more over the previous Ford M2C 925-B specification. For our end users, it offers longer drain interval capabilities, excellent engine performance under all driving conditions and outstanding protection against foam formation, rust and corrosion.”
He goes onto say that the introduction of the Formula Exclusive Eco 5W-20 engine oil adds to an already comprehensive range of automotive products from Q8Oils that includes transmission oils, hydraulic brake and clutch oils, greases and coolants.
The new engine oil is suitable for use with Ford’s three-cylinder 1.0 litre and four-cylinder 1.6 and 2.0 litre EcoBoost engines, which form a key part of Ford’s ECOnetic portfolio that is designed to improve torque and power while reducing fuel consumption and CO2emissions. The engines were initially launched in 2011 and are available on most models in the Ford EU range including the new Fiesta, Focus, C-MAX and Mondeo models.
