PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil exceeds the lubrication
requirements of all modern automobile engines. It provides tough lubricating protection
in the most demanding operating conditions. AMSOIL 10W-30 resists high temperature
degradation and flows freely in cold conditions for superior protection against
engine wear. AMSOIL 10W-30 also provides maximum power and improved fuel efficiency.
Resists
Vaporization
Conventional motor oils tend to "boil off"
in high temperatures. Losing up to 25 percent of their original weight in high
temperature service, vaporized oils grow thick and heavy. They circulate poorly,
reduce fuel efficiency and contribute to excessive emissions and engine wear.
Of course, oil consumption skyrockets as oil boils off.
AMSOIL
Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil is highly resistant to vaporization, losing only 6.6
percent of its weight in high temperature service. In fact, AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30
Motor Oil resists vaporization so well, it surpasses rigorous European standards,
set at 13 percent weight loss in high temperature testing. In the engine, AMSOIL
Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil's superior vaporization resistance keeps fuel economy
high; oil circulation efficient; and oil consumption, emissions, and most importantly,
engine wear, to a minimum.
Provides
High Shear Stability
The shearing forces generated inside today's
smaller, high RPM automobile engines can literally tear apart the molecules of
conventional oils. AMSOIL 10W-30, because of its unique synthetic construction,
withstands shearing forces. AMSOIL 10W-30 doesn't thin out and lose viscosity
like conventional oils do. AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil surpasses the North
American AAMA, Japanese JASO and European ACEA oil specifications for high temperature/high
shear viscosity. AMSOIL 10W-30 delivers long-lasting 10W-30 protection to prevent
wear under the hottest and heaviest-loaded conditions.
Resists
Oxidation and Thermal Breakdown
AMSOIL 10W-30 resists oil breakdown
from heat, blowby chemicals and oxygen longer than do conventional 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,
power and protection. In addition, the advanced heat transfer capabilities and
high lubricity of AMSOIL 10W-30 keeps engines, transmissions and gear boxes running
in their optimal temperature range, for top performance and long life.
Provides
Low Temperature Protection
AMSOIL 10W-30 remains fluid at temperatures
as low as -54°F (-48°C) so it permits easy engine cranking for fast starts. During
sub-zero temperatures, it flows to all parts of the engine in much less time than
conventional petroleum oils take, which greatly reduces the rate of wear and increases
engine life.
Resists Deposit Formation
Because
AMSOIL 10W-30's synthetic formulation resists oxidation so well, it runs naturally
cleaner than conventional oils. AMSOIL 10W-30 has a superior detergent/dispersant
additive package that, when tested after tens of thousands of miles of use in
the crankcase, still exhibits outstanding deposit control.
Inhibits
Rust and Corrosion
AMSOIL 10W-30 contains powerful rust and corrosion
inhibitors to protect iron parts and bearing materials.
Provides
Extended Drain Intervals
Due to its superior synthetic composition
and advanced performance additives, AMSOIL 10W-30 performs much longer than do
conventional petroleum and other synthetic motor oils. No other major oil manufacturer
matches AMSOIL's 25,000-mile or one-year drain interval recommendations.
APPLICATION
AMSOIL
100% Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil is designed to provide maximum benefits in gasoline-fueled
engines. It is recommended for applications requiring the following specifications:
- API SL, SJ, CF
- ILSAC GF-3, GF-2
- ACEA
A2/B2
- ACEA A3, B3, B4
- FORD WSS M2C205A, M2C153G
- GM 4718M
- CHRYSLER MS10441, MS6395 H
- JASO VTW
- VW 502.00, 505.00
- Porsche
- BMW
- Daimler Benz 229.1, 229.3
MIXING
AMSOIL
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
- Personal passenger vehicles with
gasoline engines: drain oil at 25,000-mile or one-year intervals, whichever comes
first.
- Turbocharged gasoline engines: drain oil at intervals up to three
times as long as those recommended by the engine manufacturer or at six-month
intervals, whichever comes first.
- High performance and racing engines:
Drain oil at engine manufacturer's recommended drain intervals.
- Light-duty
and nonturbocharged diesel engines: drain oil at intervals up to twice as long
as engine manufacturer's recommended drain intervals when used oil analysis supports
these longer drain intervals or at six-month intervals.
- Heavy-duty and
turbocharged diesel engines: this oil is not recommended for use in this application.
- Motorcycles,
ATVs, etc.: use engine manufacturer's recommended drain interval.
- Marine
craft and occasionally used gasoline engines: drain oil at intervals up to three
times as long as those recommended by the engine manufacturer or at one-year intervals,
whichever comes first.
- Gasoline fleet vehicles and industrial engines:
drain oil at intervals up to three times the engine manufacturer's recommended
drain intervals or at six-month intervals, whichever comes first.
