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. YES. AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 can be used in in any gasoline 4-stroke automobile
engine. Recommended change intervals are at 7500 miles, or 6 months. AMSOIL AFF
can also be used in diesel powered cars or trucks, with change intervals as recommended
by your vehicle manufacturer. | |
PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is specially formulated
for four-stroke recreational motors, including ATVs, outboard motors and motorcycles.
It may also be used in cars and trucks. Its broad viscosity range makes it excellent
for use in both hot and cold temperature extremes.
Resists
High Temperature Vaporization
Conventional motor oils tend to vaporize
and lose weight in high temperature conditions, contributing to poor oil circulation,
reduction in fuel efficiency and excessive emissions and engine wear. AMSOIL Formula
4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is highly resistant to evaporation. While conventional
petroleum oils thicken due to evaporation, AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor
Oil maintains its viscosity in high temperature service. The superior evaporation
resistance of AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil keeps engine wear, oil
consumption and emissions to a minimum, while keeping oil circulation efficient
and fuel economy high.
Friction Modifier Free
AMSOIL Formula
4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil contains no friction modifiers, making it ideal for
ATV, outboard motor and motorcycle engines. The friction modifier free formulation
of AMSOIL 4-Stroke ensures transmission (manual or automatic) and clutch compatibility
and prevents slip.
Performance Formulated
AMSOIL Formula
4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil contains a robust dispersant/detergent package, making
it ideal for use in high-stress four-cycle engines. The dispersant/detergent additive
package effectively suspends harmful combustion by-products and prevents deposits,
keeping AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke clean and serviceable.
High-temperature
operations often lead to the thermal degradation and oxidation of conventional
oils, leading to the formation of deposits, sludge and varnish. The superior oxidative
and thermal stability of AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil inhibits
the formation of varnish, deposits and sludge so equipment runs clean in high-stress,
high temperature operations.
Temperature and Performance
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil has a broad viscosity range, making
it excellent for use in both hot and cold temperature extremes. As an SAE 40 weight
motor oil, AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke 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.
Copper
Corrosion, Rust and Foam Inhibition
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic
Motor Oil protects equipment from copper corrosion and rust, even during equipment
storage. AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil does not foam in service,
protecting equipment from the metal-to-metal contact and wear that occurs with
use of foam-filled fluids.

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 SJ,
SH, SG, SF, CD, CF
• JASO MA
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. |
