PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil provides superior
lubricity and performance in marine applications,
as well as diesel engines used in trucks, fleets,
mining, earth moving, construction and farm
equipment. With its extended drain intervals,
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine
Motor Oil reduces maintenance costs, downtime
and the cost of waste oil disposal.
Provides
High Shear Stability
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil surpasses the European
ACEA and North American SAE oil specifications
for high temperature/high shear (HTHS) viscosity.
It is significantly more shear stable than conventional
motor oils, retaining its viscosity at temperatures
and loads that break down conventional oils.
Prevents
Rust and Corrosion
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil contains special
rust and corrosion-inhibiting additives to prevent
the rusting or corrosion of iron, copper, lead
and aluminum materials.
Improves
Fuel Economy
The premium quality
synthetic base stocks of AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil provide a tough
lubricating film on all engine parts, reducing
friction and fuel consumption. Reduced fuel
consumption reduces exhaust emissions of carbon
dioxide, water and particulates.
Resists
Oxidation - Reduces Engine Wear
AMSOIL Synthetic
Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil effectively
resists oxidation and thermal breakdown that
decreases fuel efficiency and increases wear
and corrosion. It continues to provide maximum
protection at temperatures that oxidize conventional
oils, while its advanced heat transfer capabilities
and high lubricity reduce wear and keep engines
running cool.
Extended
Drain Intervals
The premium synthetic
base stocks and long drain additive packages
of AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine
Motor Oil ensure maximum engine protection,
cleanliness and performance over extended drain
periods.
Provides
Low Temperature Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil remains fluid at
temperatures as low as -46°F (-51°C). It circulates
rapidly to provide vital lubrication, prevent
engine wear and allow quicker, easier cold temperature
starting.
Reduces
Oil Consumption and Emissions
The low volatility
properties and high detergent alkalynity of
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine
Motor Oil effectively keep oil consumption and
exhaust emissions to a minimum.
MIXING
AMSOIL
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil is compatible with
conventional petroleum oils and other synthetic
oils; however, mixing AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil with a conventional
oil will shorten the extended drain period of
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine
Motor Oil. Engine oil additives or after-market
products are not recommended for use with AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor
Oil.

SERVICE
LIFE
Diesel engines, fleet
vehicle engines and industrial engines: drain
oil at intervals up to two times longer than
recommended by the engine manufacturer or at
six month intervals. Extended drain intervals
may be used if they are supported by the findings
of used oil analysis.
Personal car and
light-truck non-turbocharged gasoline engines
and marine craft gasoline engines: drain oil
at intervals up to three times longer than those
recommended by the engine manufacturer, or one
year, whichever comes first.
Non-commercial,
turbocharged passenger car gasoline engines:
drain oil at intervals up to two times longer
than those recommended by the engine manufacturer,
or six months, whichever comes first.
High-performance
or racing engines: drain oil at intervals determined
by the findings of a used oil analysis program.
Motorcycle engines
and small four-cycle gasoline engines: use engine
manufacturer's oil drain recommendations.
Change AMSOIL Full
Flow Oil Filters at 12,500-mile or six-month
intervals, whichever comes first, in gasoline
engines. In diesel engines change AMSOIL Full-Flow
Oil Filter at 7,000 miles or six months, whichever
comes first. Change other manufacturers' oil
filters at the engine manufacturer's recommended
filter change intervals.
