Historical Standard: ASTM D4859-97 Standard Specification for Lubricants for Two-Stroke-Cycle Spark-Ignition Gasoline Engines-TC
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D4859
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers lubricants intended for use in two-stroke-cycle spark-ignition gasoline engines, typically other than outboard motors, that are particularly prone to ring sticking, but which are also liable to suffer damage arising from deposit induced preignition, piston scuff, spark plug fouling and piston varnish.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
