WHAT IS DRIVING THIS CATEGORY UPDATE?<\/strong>\t<\/button>\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-psx-accordion__content accordion-content\">\n\t\t\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are responding to increased demands from government regulators and the market for increased fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, and improved engine performance and durability. The primary pathway to meet these demands was to make engineering changes to vehicle hardware. These vehicle modifications put additional stress on oils, so ILSAC GF\u20116 was formulated to show a step\u2011change improvement in oil robustness and wear protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, ILSAC GF\u20116B offers lower viscosity oils designed to provide additional fuel economy benefits and ultimately reduces emissions.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-psx-accordion-item\">\n\t<button class=\"accordion-header js-accordion-header wp-block-psx-accordion__title components-button\" type=\"button\">\n\t\t<strong>3.

If you have an older vehicle, ILSAC GF\u20116 oil provides additional protection for your vehicle. Make sure to look for the ILSAC Starburst to ensure you\u2019re receiving oil that provides the proper level of protection for your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-psx-accordion-item\">\n\t<button class=\"accordion-header js-accordion-header wp-block-psx-accordion__title components-button\" type=\"button\">\n\t\t<strong>7.
