PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic
10W-30 Motor Oil is formulated with advanced Polyalphaolefin
(PAO) synthetic base stocks. PAO base stocks are
the industry's premier base stock technology,
and when combined with an exact blend of premium
additives, provide second-to-none protection and
performance in the most demanding operating conditions.
AMSOIL 10W-30 resists high temperature degradation
and flows freely in cold conditions for substantial
reduction in engine wear. It provides excellent
engine protection, maximum power, improved fuel
efficiency and extended oil drain intervals.
Resists High Temperature
Vaporization
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30
Motor Oil resists vaporizing in the high temperatures
that vaporize petroleum motor oils. AMSOIL 10W-30
remains a 10W-30, providing consistent high temperature
protection, improved fuel economy and reduced
oil consumption and emissions.
Resists Oxidation
and Thermal Breakdown
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30
Motor Oil resists the damaging effects of heat,
blowby chemicals and oxidation up to 10 times
longer than petroleum motor oils. AMSOIL 10W-30
resists forming varnish deposits and sludge. It
doesn't thicken like petroleum oils, but continues
to cool and lubricate, providing peak engine performance
and extended drain intervals. In addition, the
advanced heat transfer capabilities and high lubricity
of AMSOIL 10W-30 reduce excessive operating temperatures
of engines, transmissions and gear boxes, so they
run cooler, cleaner and longer.
Provides High
Shear Stability
AMSOIL 10W-30 surpasses
the North American SAE and European ACEA oil specifications
for high temperature/high shear (HTHS) viscosity.
It doesn't shear back to a lower viscosity oil
in the high temperature/high shear conditions
of today's smaller, high RPM automobile engines.
AMSOIL 10W-30 maintains an extremely protective
viscosity of 3.5 cP at 302°F (150°C) in the ASTM
D-4683 High Temperature/High Shear Test, far exceeding
test limits of 2.9 cP.
Provides Low Temperature
Protection
AMSOIL 10W-30 remains
fluid at temperatures as frigid as -48°F (-54°C).
It permits easy engine cranking for fast starts
and in sub-zero temperatures flows to all engine
parts much faster than petroleum motor oils. The
exceptional cold temperature properties of AMSOIL
10W-30 provide immediate cold start lubrication,
greatly reducing engine wear and prolonging engine
life.
Resists Deposit
Formation
Because AMSOIL 10W-30's
synthetic formulation resists oxidation so well,
it runs naturally cleaner than petroleum motor
oils. AMSOIL 10W-30 also contains special detergent/dispersant
additives that, when tested after tens of thousands
of miles of use in the crankcase, still exhibit
outstanding deposit control. This combination
of natural detergency and advanced additive package
keeps AMSOIL 10W-30 effective for up to 25,000
miles or one year in non-turbocharged gasoline-fueled
cars.
Prevents Rust
and Corrosion
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30
contains special rust and corrosion inhibitors
to protect iron parts, as well as copper, lead
and aluminum bearing materials.

AMSOIL 100% Synthetic
10W-30 Motor Oil is compatible with conventional
petroleum oils; however, mixing AMSOIL 10W-30 with
a conventional oil will shorten the drain period
of AMSOIL 10W-30. Engine oil additives or after-market
products are not recommended for use with AMSOIL
10W-30.
SERVICE LIFE
In personal cars and
light-duty trucks with non-turbocharged gasoline
engines: drain oil at 25,000 miles or one-year
intervals, whichever comes first.
In turbocharged gasoline
engines, motorcycles, ATVs, marine craft and occasionally
used gasoline engines: drain oil at intervals
up to three times as long as the intervals recommended
by the engine manufacturer or six months, whichever
comes first.
In high performance
and racing engines: drain oil according to the
findings of used oil analysis.
In light-duty and
non-turbocharged diesel engines: drain oil at
intervals up to twice as long as those recommended
by the engine manufacturer or one year, whichever
comes first.
In fleet and industrial
engines: drain oil at intervals up to three times
as long as those recommended by the engine manufacturer
if the findings of a used oil analysis program
support the extended drain intervals.
If the vehicle is
equipped with an AMSOIL Oil Filter, the filter
should be changed at 12,500-mile or six-month
intervals (whichever comes first) in gasoline
engines and 7,000-mile or six-month intervals
(whichever comes first) in diesel engines. Non-AMSOIL
oil filters should be changed at the engine manufacturer's
recommended filter change intervals.
| AMSOIL
synthetic motor oils are fully compatible
with conventional motor oil. For best results,
however, use AMSOIL
Engine Flush, then install AMSOIL synthetic motor oil.
For maximum engine protection,
use an AMSOIL
Oil Filter and an AMSOIL
Air Filter.
Note: Most quick
lube service centers will install these
products upon request or install them
yourself.
