GF-2 also requires a minimum level of fuel economy versus a reference oil (BC-2) in a standard engine test (Seq. Under current GF-2 American Petroleum Institute (API) classification standards for PCMOs, SAE 5W-20, 5W-30 or 10W-30 oils must have volatilities as measured by gas chromatography distillation (GCD) of no more than 17%, or Noack volatilities of no more than 22%.
