Is sae oil non detergent?

SAE oil can be either detergent or non-detergent, depending on its formulation. Non-detergent oils lack additives that help keep engine parts clean by suspending contaminants, making them suitable for older engines or specific applications where such additives may not be desired. It's important to check the oil's specifications or labels to determine if it is detergent or non-detergent.
