LE Monolec Tetra-Syn Engine Oil
LE Monolec® Syn Engine Oil (8511–8531) is a best-in-class 100 percent synthetic gasoline engine oil that exceeds the minimum standards set by the American Petroleum Institute (API), combining performance, protection, endurance and efficiency. Available in SAE 0W-20, 5W-20 and 5W-30, its proprietary additive package – including Monolec®, LE’s exclusive wear-reducing additive – delivers resource-conserving fuel economy, protects emissions systems, keeps engines clean, minimises deposits and mitigates wear in Low-Speed Pre-Ignition (LSPI) conditions, keeping engines running longer while safely extending oil change intervals.
