APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil is recommended
for gasoline engines, diesel engines (API CF, ACEA B5) and other applications
requiring any of the listed worldwide specifications:
- API SM/CF,
SL, SJ ...
- ILSAC GF-4, 3 ...
- ACEA A5/B5-04
- JASO VTW
- GM 4718M, 6094M
- Ford WSS M2C929-A
- Daimler Chrysler MS-6395N
- VW 503.00
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL ASL 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 Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil is recommended
for extended drain intervals in unmodified(1),
mechanically sound(2) gasoline fueled vehicles
as follows:
Normal Service(3)
Up to 25,000 miles or one year, whichever comes
first.
Severe Service(4)
Up to 15,000 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 (16 km)
at a time and not operating under severe service.
(4) Turbo/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 (16
km), 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 full-flow oil filters.
