A super heavy-duty diesel lubricant chemically designed for use
in commercial and industrial applications where requirements call for a CF, CF-2,
CG-4, CH-4, SH, or SJ lubricant. AMSOIL Diesel Oil is recommended for virtually
every diesel application, including truck fleets, mining, earth moving, farming
and stationary engines. In every engine tested (including Detroit Diesel, Caterpillar,
Cummins and Mack), the advanced 12 TBN additive system of AMSOIL Diesel Oil significantly
reduced ring wear, cylinder bore polishing, cylinder liner wear, oil consumption,
piston deposits and ring breakage. The extended drain intervals allowable with
AMSOIL Diesel Oil reduce vehicle downtime and waste oil disposal costs. Product

PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL SAE 30 Synthetic Diesel Oil is a super heavy-duty
diesel lubricant chemically designed for use in commercial and industrial applications
where requirements call for a CF, CF-2 or SH lubricant. AMSOIL Diesel Oil is recommended
for virtually every diesel application, including truck fleets, mining, earth
moving, farming and stationary engines. In every engine tested (including Detroit
Diesel, Caterpillar, Cummins and Mack), the advanced 12 TBN additive system of
AMSOIL Diesel Oil significantly reduced ring wear, cylinder bore polishing, cylinder
liner wear, oil consumption, piston deposits and ring breakage. The extended drain
intervals allowable with AMSOIL Diesel Oil reduce vehicle downtime and waste oil
disposal costs.
Reduces Oil Consumption
AMSOIL Diesel Oil loses only 6.3 percent of its mass to high temperature volatility.
Conventional oils often lose over 15 percent. Due to its low volatility, AMSOIL
Diesel Oil maintains a low rate of oil consumption and hydrocarbon emissions and
retains its original viscosity after high temperature service for continued dependable
protection and excellent fuel economy.
Resists
Oxidation and Thermal Breakdown
AMSOIL Diesel Oil resists oil breakdown
from heat, blowby chemicals and oxygen up to ten times longer than do conventional
oils. AMSOIL Diesel Oil resists forming sludge and varnish deposits, which contribute
to corrosion, decreased fuel efficiency and increased engine wear. AMSOIL Diesel
Oil doesn't thicken like conventional oils, but maintains its viscosity, providing
peak engine performance and extended drain intervals. Also, the advanced heat
transfer capabilities and high lubricity of AMSOIL Diesel Oil reduces the operating
temperatures of engines and transmissions.
Extended
Drain Intervals
AMSOIL Diesel Oil is formulated for extended drain
intervals. Its unique synthetic formulation, improved detergent/dispersant capabilities
and long drain additive package ensures maximum engine protection, cleanliness
and performance over extended drain periods. In addition, the advanced 12 TBN
additive package of AMSOIL Diesel Oil neutralizes acids and keeps the engine clean
and in top-running condition.
Provides
Low Temperature Protection
AMSOIL Diesel Oil remains fluid at temperatures
as low as -39°C (-38°F). AMSOIL Diesel Oil circulates rapidly to all engine parts
to provide immediate cold start protection. The ability of AMSOIL Diesel Oil to
lubricate at low temperatures greatly reduces wear and increases engine life.
Improves
Fuel Economy and Reduces Emissions
The premium quality synthetic
base stocks in AMSOIL Diesel Oil provide a tough lubricating film on all engine
parts, reducing friction and fuel consumption. Reduced fuel consumption also means
less exhaust emissions.
Prevents Rust
and Corrosion
AMSOIL Diesel Oil contains special rust-inhibiting
additives to reduce rust, which makes it ideal for equipment stored long term.
APPLICATION
AMSOIL SAE 30 Synthetic Diesel Oil exceeds the following engine tests.
- API Service CF, CF-2, CG-4, CH-4, SH, SJ
- ACEA/CCMC D4, PD2
- MIL-L-2104F
- Caterpillar Powershift Trans. TO-2 and TO-3
- Allison C-3 and
C-4
- Mack EO-L
- M.A.N. 270
- Mercedes-Benz AG 227.0, 228.0
- Scania Long Drain
- Volvo VDS
- VW 505.00
MIXING
AMSOIL
AMSOIL Diesel Oil is compatible with petroleum lubricants;
however, mixing AMSOIL Diesel Oil with a conventional oil will shorten the drain
period of the AMSOIL Diesel Oil. Diesel oil additives or after-market products
are not recommended for use with AMSOIL Diesel Oil.
SERVICE
LIFE
In diesel engines, fleet vehicle engines and industrial engines,
such as stationary gasoline engines: drain oil at intervals up to three times
as long as those recommended by the engine manufacturer as long as extended drains
are supported by the findings of a used oil analysis program.
In
personal cars and light trucks with non-turbocharged gasoline engines and marine
craft: drain oil at intervals up to two times as long as those recommended by
the engine manufacturer or at six-month intervals, whichever comes first.
In
turbocharged gasoline engines: drain oil at intervals up to twice as long as engine
manufacturers' recommended drain intervals or at six-month intervals, whichever
comes first.
In high performance and racing engines: change
oil based on the findings of oil analysis.
In motorcycles,
ATVs and related gasoline engines: drain oil at engine manufacturer's recommended
drain interval.
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 7000-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.
