motor oil performance. The exclusive “extended drain” formulation
delivers superior engine protection and maximum
fuel economy. AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 is a premium
grade synthetic motor oil that exceeds the requirements
of modern, high-performance engines and older
engines. It replaces other 0W-30, 5W-30 and 10W-30
motor oils and consistently outperforms competitive conventional
and synthetic motor oils.
AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic lubrication,
produced the world’s first API qualified synthetic
motor oil in 1972. Trust the extensive experience of
AMSOIL The First in Synthetics® to do the best job
protecting your engine.
Extends Drain Intervals
AMSOIL Signature 0W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil lasts much
longer in service than conventional oils. Its unique synthetic
formulation and long drain additive system resist oxidation
and neutralize the acids that shorten the service life
of other oils. AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 delivers the
best possible engine protection, cleanliness and performance
over extended drain intervals, reducing vehicle
maintenance and waste oil disposal costs.
Maximizes Fuel
Efficiency
The lightweight molecular
structure of AMSOIL
Signature Series 0W-30
Synthetic Motor Oil reduces energy loss from the “drag”
common to high viscosity oils. It is fortified with additives
that enhance its friction-reducing properties to help further
improve fuel efficiency.
Reduces Wear
AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil
contains specialized anti-wear technology. Its durable,
high temperature film strength effectively separates
metal surfaces to reduce wear even under the most
grueling conditions. Tests prove that AMSOIL Signature
Series 0W-30 provides better protection against wear
than other motor oils (see graph). AMSOIL Signature
Series 0W-30 helps engines last longer.

Resists Heat, Reduces Oil
Consumption and Emissions
AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil is
thermally stable with a strong resistance to high temperature
volatility (burn-off). It is heavily fortified with
detergent and dispersant additives designed to prevent
sludge deposits and keep engines clean. Low volatility and
clean operation reduce oil consumption and emissions.
Provides Outstanding
Cold Flow Properties
Unlike conventional oils, AMSOIL Signature Series
0W-30 contains no wax. Its exceptional -60°F cold flow
properties ease starting and reduce bearing wear.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil is
recommended for use in gasoline engines, diesel engines
(API CF, ACEA B5) and other applications requiring SAE
0W-30, 5W-30 or 10W-30 with the following worldwide
specifications:
• API SM/CF, SL, SJ …
• ILSAC GF-4, 3 …
• ACEA A5/B5-04
• GM 4718M, 6094M
• Ford WSS-M2C929-A
• Honda HTO-06
• Daimler Chrysler MS-6395N
• VW 503.00
Mixing AMSOIL
AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 is compatible with
conventional and synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL
motor oils with other oils, however, will shorten the oil life
expectancy and reduce the performance benefits.
AMSOIL does not support extended drain intervals
where oils have been mixed.
Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended for use
with AMSOIL motor oils.
Service Life
AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil is
recommended for extended drain intervals in unmodified(1), mechanically sound(2) gasoline fueled vehicles as
follows:
• Normal Service(3) – Up to 35,000 miles or one year,
whichever comes first.
• Severe Service(4) – Up to 17,500 miles or one year,
whichever comes first.
• Replace AMSOIL Ea oil filter at the time of oil change
up to 25,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first
(other brands at standard OEM* intervals).
• In all non-gasoline fueled vehicle applications, extend
the oil change interval according to oil analysis or
follow the OEM* drain interval.
*OEM - Original Equipment Manufacturer
(1) Engines operating under modified conditions are excluded from
extended drain recommendations. Examples include the use of
performance computer chips; non-OEM approved exhaust, fuel
or air induction systems; and the use of fuels other than those
recommended for normal operation by the manufacturer.
(2) Mechanically sound engines are in good working condition and do
not, for example, leak oil or consume excessive amounts, are not
worn out, do not overheat, do not leak anti-freeze and have properly
working emission control systems. AMSOIL recommends
repairing malfunctioning engines prior to the installation of AMSOIL
synthetic oils.
(3) Personal vehicles frequently traveling greater than 10 miles (16km)
at a time and not operating under severe service.
(4) Turbo or supercharged vehicles, commercial or fleet vehicles,
extensive engine idling, first and subsequent use of AMSOIL in vehicles
with over 100,000 miles, daily short trip driving less than 10 miles (16km), frequent towing, plowing, hauling or dusty condition
driving.
AMSOIL Ea full-flow oil filters are designed for extended
drain intervals. They stop smaller particles, flow more oil
and last longer than regular filters. For best performance,
use AMSOIL Ea full-flow oil filters.

DRIVEN BY EXCELLENCE
As A.J. Amatuzio neared the end of his 25-year career as an award-winning jet fighter pilot, he set his sights on a new challenge. Knowing that every jet engine in the world used only synthetic oil, he was convinced that the same type of technology would provide tremendous benefits to automotive engines. In the early-1960’s he set out on an intense period of research and development.
In 1972 A.J. Amatuzio created AMSOIL INC. and introduced the world’s first API qualified synthetic motor oil, AMSOIL 10W-40. But obstacles remained for Amatuzio. The major oil companies were threatened by his advanced technology and, along with the auto manufacturers, refused to acknowledge his revolutionary new product.
Amatuzio persevered. Through sheer determination he began to convince the motoring public that AMSOIL synthetic motor oil was far superior to the conventional petroleum oils they had been using. Then, as consumers caught on by the thousands, the competing oil companies could no longer deny the performance benefits of AMSOIL motor oil. They were forced to follow the AMSOIL lead and, one by one, developed synthetic oils of their own. Amatuzio had humbled an industry.
Today, AMSOIL remains the leader in quality and innovation. A.J. Amatuzio Signature Series Motor Oil is engineered with the world’s most advanced synthetic base oils and high-performance additives. This exclusive formulation represents the benchmark in motor oil technology and sets the standard by which all other motor oils are measured.
