AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 Synthetic
Motor Oil is the industry benchmark in lubrication
technology. Engineered with the worlds finest
synthetic base oils and high performance additives,
AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 is designed for those
who demand the absolute best in 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 worlds 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
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.
