Applications
Shell Mysella Oil LA is a premium quality oil blended for use in highly-rated, spark-ignition engines which require a ‘low ash’ oil. It satisfies the new generation of stationary gas engines designed to meet the emerging legislation limiting emissions of NOx, and those which employ the latest ‘lean’ or ‘clean’ burn technology.
For use in:
- Spark-ignited gas engines fuelled by natural gas
Although Mysella LA is mainly developed to be used in natural gas applications it can also be used in engines fuelled by sour gases when a low ash oil is required.
