Automatic motors and gears are clearly different. Therefore, it needs a different lubricant. The mechanism of the transmission itself is very different from each other. Manual transmission uses a wet clutch, while the automatic motor uses a dry clutch. But no need to be confused in choosing. Because there are striking differences that can be recognized from the type of oil for automatic and non-matic motors. As explained by Pana Oil Indonesia below.
Reza Ben Ungerer, B2C Division Head of PT Pana Oil Indonesia said that if each oil was used for a different type of transmission, it would cause the motor's performance to not be optimal. For example, using oil for automatic scooters on manual motors. While the formula for scooter oil is made to reduce friction in engine components. Lubricants for scooters do not contain anti-slip clutch additives so that their character is more slippery. That way, the clutch slipping symptom has the potential to appear due to the absence of elements in the oil that have additive compounds that match the clutch lining so that it doesn't slip.
"In principle, oil for scooters was created to reduce friction between components in engine components," said Reza Ben in an official statement.
The first and easiest way, to find out the difference between automatic and manual motor oil specifications. It can be seen from the JASO MA code. If there is a code, it confirms that the oil is made with a formula that is suitable for wet clutch or manual transmission motors. The code is JASO MB for use on automatic motorcycles.
Another thing that can easily be done to find out the type of oil is to look at the thickness. Motors with manual transmissions require thicker oil so that clutch performance is more precise.
"You should really understand well all the codes on the oil packaging so that the vehicle's performance can be maximized," concluded Reza Ben.
PanaOil Range of Two Wheel Lubricants
Speaking of types of motor oil, PanaOil itself offers four choices. Each one is; PanaOil SP5 Synthetic Matic 10W-30, PanaOil SP5 Synthetic Matic 10W-40, PanaOil SP5 Synthetic Manual 10W-40, and PanaOil SP5 Synthetic Manual 20W-50.
Each PanaOil SP5 product, which is entirely synthetic oil, also has a special formula called Engine Power Protection Technology. A technology that will provide maximum protection for engine components from the potential for erosion or wear that arises due to mechanical and chemical processes while the engine is working.
PT Pana Oil Indonesia in particular does formulate its lubricant products with the standardization of JASO (Japan Automotive Standard Organization). The standardization details more specifically the needs of the motor formula.
For information, the launch of JASO T903 in 1998 has officially made JASO the global standard for 4-stroke engine oil. Then JASO MB is the lubricant specification for scooter engines, and JASO MA2 is the highest specification for lubricants for motorcycle engines with wet clutches.
Users of two-wheeled vehicles can already get SP5 Oil from PanaOil throughout Indonesia. No need to worry if you haven't had time to visit the nearest oil outlet or repair shop. Because SP5 oil can also be obtained online. There is already a PanaOil Official Store in two well-known e-commerce stores, so you can buy it anytime and anywhere.
