PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30/SAE 30 Diesel Oil (ACD)
is formulated with premium synthetic base oils
that exceed both 10W-30 multi-grade and SAE
30 straight-grade viscosity requirements for
outstanding performance in modern and older
diesel engines. Unlike conventional SAE 30 motor
oils, AMSOIL ACD has a naturally high viscosity
index and
does not contain paraffin (wax). It has a -36°F
pour point and quali fies for SAE 10W, making
it an “all season” multi-grade lubricant
with a wide operating temperature range. AMSOIL
ACD is formulated without viscosity index improvers
(VI). This shear stable formulation stops viscosity
loss and associated bearing and cylinder bore
wear. AMSOIL ACD contains premium additives
with a high 12 TBN to neutralize acids from
blow-by, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and
high sulfur diesel fuels. It protects against
damaging piston deposits, ring sticking and
sludge.
AMSOIL, the leader
in automotive synthetic lubrication, produced
the world’s first API qualified synthetic
motor oil back in 1972. Trust the extensive
experience of AMSOIL The First in Synthetics®
to do the best job protecting your equipment.
APPLICATIONS
Where these viscosity grades are specified,
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30/SAE 30 Diesel Oil (ACD)
provides outstanding performance as a straight-grade
SAE 30 for older two- and four-stroke diesels
and as a multi-grade SAE 10W-30 in modern four-stroke
diesels as well as gasoline engines. AMSOIL
ACD is ideal for use in a wide variety of light
and heavy-duty applications, including agriculture,
off-road construction, trucking, mining, industrial
(pumps and generators) and personal automotive
or commercial transportation. It is recommended
for use with low or high sulfur diesel fuels
in standard, turbocharged or supercharged engines,
including modern low emission diesels such as
those equipped with EGR systems.
PERFORMANCE
AMSOIL ACD is recommended for all diesel engines
requiring any of the listed worldwide specifications.
It also may be used in gasoline engines where
the performance standards API SL or prior are
specified.

MIXING
AMSOIL
AMSOIL ACD is compatible with conventional and
synthetic motor oils, however, mixing AMSOIL
ACD with other oils will shorten the oil life
expectancy and reduce the associated performance
benefits. AMSOIL does not support extended drain
intervals where AMSOIL ACD has been mixed with
another product. Aftermarket additives are not
recommended for use with AMSOIL ACD.
SERVICE
LIFE
AMSOIL ACD is formulated for extended drain
intervals and typically provides much longer
service life than conventional petroleum oils
in diesel-fueled engines. Extended drain intervals
vary depending on application and operating
conditions. AMSOIL recommends ACD for the following
drain intervals:
In unmodified pick-up and
automotive diesel engines, extend drain intervals
up to 25,000 miles or one year*, whichever
comes first, or longer based on oil analysis.
Change AMSOIL or Donaldson Endurance™
oil filter at 12,500 miles or six months,
whichever comes first, or longer if stated
by vehicle manufacturer (other brands at standard
intervals).
* Where the engine or operating
conditions have been modified from factory
design, such as with the use of performance
chips, extend drain intervals based on oil
analysis.
In heavy-duty diesel engines,
extend drain intervals based on oil analysis.
Change Donaldson Endurance™ oil filter
at twice the recommended interval for conventional
cellulose media filters (other brands at standard
intervals).
In gasoline engines, extend
drain intervals based on oil analysis. Change
AMSOIL oil filter at twice the recommended
interval for conventional cellulose media
filters (other brands at standard intervals).
AMSOIL by-pass oil filters are
specialized for the removal of small, wear causing
dirt particles, thereby extending engine life.
AMSOIL encourages using an AMSOIL by-pass filter
system for maximum engine and oil life.
