This Service Bulletin replaces service bulletin ESB-SPB 27.05, dated

22.10.2010. The reason for the supersession is the addition of Mobil
Pegasus 1005 as an approved Premium Oil for QSV 91G 2MWe, and
QSV81/91G (14 and 16Bar BMEP) engines.

This Service Bulletin applies to the Natural Gas fuelled Gensets indicated
in the table above - but does not include Low Btu/Biogas fuelled Gensets.
Warranty Impact
Selecting and using the correct grade of engine oil is critical for achieving engine
service life, engine reliability and performance.
It is important to understand that the Genset must be operated and maintained in

accordance to Cummins published recommendations. Failure to follow applicable
oil drain intervals and recommendations in this Service / Parts Topic and the
Operation and Maintenance Manual applicable to the engine can result in severe
engine damage. Whilst failing to follow these recommendations will not void
Cummins warranty, it must be understood that Cummins will deny coverage for
any corrective work or progressive damage that Cummins alone determines was
caused by not following the applicable oil drain intervals, or by continuing to
operate an engine with oil that is deemed not fit for further use.
The information contained within this Service Bulletin does not authorise TRP or
Campaign practices.
The purpose of this Service Bulletin is to outline the correct oil

specification and maintenance of engine oil for Cummins HHP LBNG
fuelled engines; as well as to update and simplify Cummins ESB
recommendations and guidelines for the end user.

Document Overview
The purpose of this Service Bulletin is to outline the correct oil specification and
maintenance of engine oil for Cummins HHP Lean Burn natural gas fuelled
engines; as well as to update and simplify Cummins ESB recommendations and
guidelines for the end user.
This Service Bulletin does not define an approval procedure for new oil selection;
for oil approval refer to Cummins Engineering Standard 14615. This Bulletin
assumes that the oil being used has already been approved by Cummins Inc.
This Service Bulletin does not aim to give advice on oil sampling and analysis
(refer to ESB Service Bulletin ESB-SPB 22.3) for causes of oil deterioration or
corrective action.
Engine Oil Specification
Reference should be made to Cummins Service Bulletin 3810340 Cummins

Engine Oil Recommendations which is available via QuickServe Online, as well
as the Operation & Maintenance manual for the relevant engine.
NOTE: Never use diesel engine oil in a natural gas engine SERIOUS
ENGINE DAMAGE CAN OCCUR!
QSV81G, QSV91G and QSK60G Natural Gas Engines:
High quality SAE40 (mono-grade) NG engine oils, such as Valvoline Premium

Blue GEO LA should be used. The use of the Premium Grade Long Change
Interval oils are strongly recommended. The SAE40 oils approved for use in
Cummins ESB HHP natural gas fuelled engines are as follows:
QSV 91G 2MWe Engine (18.2Bar BMEP Models):
The approved oils are (oils shown in blue are premium grade oils):

QSK 19G Natural Gas Engine:
Cummins Inc. / ESB only approve the use of high quality SAE15W40 (multi-
grade) engine oils. The oil requirements for the QSK19G are as follows:
Viscosity SAE 15W40

Sulphated Ash (%) Less than 0.5%
TBN (ASTM D4739) 5.0 minimum
TAN (ASTM D664) 0.5 - 0.7

Engine Oil Change Intervals:
Cummins Inc. bases its oil drain specifications on duty cycle and oil
contamination. This contamination occurs in all engines at varying rates
regardless of design.
Maintaining the correct oil and filter change interval is a vital factor in preserving
the integrity of an engine. Filters must be changed when the oil is changed.
Cummins Inc. strongly recommends regular oil sampling and analysis. Refer to
the latest revision of ESB Service Bulletin ESB-SPB 22. If regular oil analysis is
not performed, then the oil change interval is reduced and oil analysis must be
carried out immediately prior to the oil change to determine that the oil
contamination was within acceptable limits at the time of the oil change.
Premium Grade Long Change Interval Oils:

NOTE: QSV Engine Platforms Only (all model variants): The maximum oil
change intervals when using Premium Grade / Long Change Interval Oils
(with oil analysis) can be extended in steps of 500 hours, where the oil
analysis results prove that the oil was still fit for continued use, i.e. the oil
sample analysis results have not reached the CAUTION limits for all oil
analysis criteria, as detailed in ESB Service Bulletin ESB-SPB 22.
