grades and is recommended for applications requiring the following
specifications:
Use in Yamaha®, Suzuki, Honda®, Mercury®, Kawasaki®,
Arctic Cat®, Tohatsu®, Polaris®, Nissan® and Bombardier® motors and
transmissions. Safe in wet or dry sumps. Recommended for manual or automatic
clutches. | |
Q. Can I use AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 in my
new 4-stroke snowmobile? A. Absolutely! AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 was
specifically formulated for use in small, hard working 4-stroke engines. AFF is
ideal for 4-cycle snowmobiles, ATV's, personal watercraft, 4-stroke boat motors,
lawn equipment etc...
Q. Can I use AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 in my car or
truck? A. AMSOIL AFF can most certainly be used in cars or trucks but
it is not our first choice for automotive applications. We offer a full line of
automotive oils. AFF is specifically
formulated for small recreational 4-stroke engines, and is an excellent choice
for 4-Stroke outboards, ATVs, lawn equipment, snow blowers
etc…. |
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke
Synthetic Motor Oil is an all-season lubricant specially formulated for
four-stroke recreational motors, including ATVs, outboard motors, personal
watercraft, motorcycles and snowmobiles. Its broad viscosity range and waxless
formulation make it excellent for use in both hat and cold temperature extremes.
As an SAE 40 weight motor oil, AMSOIL Formula 4-stoke provides superior
protection for hot operating, hard working motors, while its SAE 0W rating
ensures easy cranking, excellent cold weather starting and quick post-startup
protection.
Resists Heat and Thermal Breakdown Because
it effectively resists oil vaporization, AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor
Oil Keeps oil consumption and emissions to a minimum. Its superior oxidation
stability prevents carbon and varnish formation, keeping engines running cleanly
and at peak efficiency. Formula 4-Stroke effectively maintains its viscosity in
high temperature service, maintaining fuel economy.
Excellent For
Transmissions AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor
Oil is wet clutch compatible and contains no friction modifiers, making it ideal
for ATV and motorcycle engines. The friction modifier free formulation of AMSOIL
4-Stroke prevents slip and ensures transmission (manual or automatic) and clutch
compatibility. Formula 4-Stroke is shear stable, effectively preventing
viscosity breakdown caused by mechanical activity (meshing gears in
transmissions), while high levels of anti-wear additives provide superior
anti-wear protection.
Superior
Wear Protection AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is formulated
with high levels of anti-wear additives that provide excellent protection for
pistons, bearings and gears in transmission containing units, while its high SAE
40 viscosity provides an extra margin of protection for hard working
motors.
Anti-Foam The Churning that typically
occurs in high RPM motors can cause oil to foam, depleting its lubricating
abilities and increasing heat, wear and oil oxidation. AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke
Synthetic Motor Oil does not foam in service protecting equipment from
metal-to-metal contact and wear.
Special Additives While conventional
oils contain minimal anti-rust additives, AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic
Motor Oil provides superior rust prevention, which is especially important for
outboard motors and personal watercraft. Small engines typically subject oil to
high levels of blow-by contaminants. AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil
contains a robust dispersant/detergent package that effectively neutralizes
acids and combustion by-products, keeping engines clean and extending oil
life.
Applications and Recommendations AMSOIL
Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil may be used in all applications specifying
0W-40, 5W-30, 10W-30 and 10W-40 viscosity grades and is recommended for
applications specifying the following:
• API SG, CF • JASO MA
(transmission performance)
Use in Yamaha®, Suzuki®, Honda®, Mercury®,
Kawasaki®, Arctic Cat®, Polaris®, Nissan® and Bombardier® motors and
transmissions. Safe in wet or dry sumps. Recommended for manual or automatic
clutches.
Compatibility AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor
Oil is compatible with other four-stroke fluids. However, a mixture of AMSOIL
Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil and another oil may offer a shorter service
life than pure AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil.
AMSOIL
Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is compatible with and recommended for use
with clutch plates in ATV’s and motorcycle
transmissions.
Installation Change AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke
Synthetic Motor Oil according to manufacturer's recommendations, without oil
filtration. With oil filtration (AMSOIL SDF Filter), up to 2 times longer than
manufacturer's recommendations or 6 months, whichever comes first. If a Hastings
or other filter is used, filter should be changed at manufacturer's
recommendations.
