Application Notes:
 

demerit rating


is an arbitrary graduated numerical rating sometimes used in evaluating engine deposit levels following testing of an engine oil’s detergent-dispersant characteristics. On a scale of 0-10, the higher the number, the heavier the deposits. A more commonly used method of evaluating engine cleanliness is merit rating.
