Scope

1.1 This test method, commonly referred to as the Cummins ISB Test, covers the utilization of a modern, 5.9 L, diesel engine equipped with exhaust gas recirculation and is used to evaluate oil performance with regard to valve-train wear. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.2.1 Exceptions—SI units are provided for all parameters except where there is no direct equivalent such as the units for screw threads, National Pipe Threads/diameters, tubing size, or where there is a sole source of supply equipment specification. 1.2.2 See also A7.1 for clarification; it does not supersede 1.2 and 1.2.1. 1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the 1 This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 on Petroleum Products, Liquid Fuels, and Lubricants and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D02.B0 on Automotive Lubricants. Current edition approved March 1, 2023. Published March 2023. Originally approved in 2008. Last previous edition approved in 2021 as D7484 – 21b. DOI: 10.1520/D7484-23. 2 Until the next revision of this test method, the ASTM Test Monitoring Center will update changes in the test method by means of information letters.
