Amsoil I would stay away from for its multi-level marketing scheme alone. Toss in the price, and why not avoid it?

Mobil1 is 'C' rated (CD and CF says their web site). Mobil Delvac1 meets the CE, CF-4, CG-4, CH-4 and CI-4 standards. Without knowing much about the compression ignition ratings, I believe that the Pug diesels sold in the US were designed before the later standards that Delvac1 meets.
