AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil
Race-proven technology designed for
passenger car performance. Provides unsurpassed fuel
efficiency and up to twice the wear protection provided
by popular conventional and synthetic motor oils.
Recommended for use in all vehicles requiring 5W-20,
5W-30 or 10W-30 motor oils.
Product Description
Passenger car and light-truck engines
today are built for fuel efficiency and power. AMSOIL
Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil optimizes efficiency
and power without the sacrifice in wear protection
that comes with many fuel-efficient, low-viscosity
oils.
Testing shows AMSOIL Series 2000
Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil dramatically outperforms
popular conventional and synthetic motor oils of much
higher viscosity in wear protection. (see chart)

Fuel Efficient Formula
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Motor Oil efficiently transfers energy from the engine
to the drivetrain. Its low coefficient of friction
inhibits the energy loss to "drag" common to high
viscosity oils.
Motorists seeking the ultimate in
fuel efficiency may use AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic
0W-30 Motor Oil in place of higher viscosity motor
oils.
High Temperature Protection
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Motor Oil protects in high temperatures better than
do the high-viscosity conventional and synthetic oils
tested (see chart). Even after extended service in
the engine, Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil
maintains its ability to protect in high temperatures.
Low Temperature
Protection
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Motor Oil is specially formulated for superior cold
temperature engine protection. Series 2000 retains
excellent fluidity in extremely low temperatures,
so it flows quickly and reliably to allow easy starting
and immediate lubricating protection.
Motorists seeking cold temperature
dependability and protection may use AMSOIL Series
2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil in place of higher
viscosity motor oils.
Heat Stability
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Motor Oil is highly resistant to volatility. For example,
in heat that causes conventional motor oils to lose
as much as 25 percent of their mass, AMSOIL Series
2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil loses less than ten
percent.
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Motor Oil's resistance to volatility keeps oil consumption
extremely low and, more importantly, keeps the engine
thoroughly lubricated and protected. Its resistance
to volatility also helps keep fuel efficiency high
and emissions low.
Clean Engine Formula
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Motor Oil remains free of sludge, varnish and other
by-products of high temperature degradation. With
no deposits to foul them, engines stay cleaner longer
for top performance and efficiency and maximum service
life.
Shear Stability
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Motor Oil is highly shear-resistant. With AMSOIL Series
2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil's excellent viscosity
retention, the protection that goes into the engine
is the protection that stays in the engine, even over
an extended course of severe service.
Mixing AMSOIL
AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Motor Oil may be mixed with petroleum-based oils or
other synthetic oils. However, a mixture of AMSOIL
Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil and another
oil may offer a shorter service life than pure AMSOIL
Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil does.
Service Life
In personal cars and light-duty
trucks with non-turbocharged gasoline engines:
change the oil at 35,000-mile or one-year intervals,
whichever comes first.
In turbocharged gasoline engines
and occasionally used gasoline engines: change
the oil at intervals up to three times longer recommended
by the engine manufacturer or six months, whichever
comes first.
In high performance and racing
engines: specified by Owner Experience/Oil Analysis.
Marine four-cycle gasoline engines
and infrequently used automotive four-cycle gasoline
engines: drain oil at intervals up to three times
longer than those recommended by the engine manufacturer,
or one year, whichever comes first.
In fleet and industrial engines:
drain oil at intervals up to two times longer than
recommended by the manufacturer, or six months, whichever
comes first.
AMSOIL Oil Filters should be changed
at 12,500-mile or six-month intervals (whichever comes
first) in gasoline engines. If a Hastings or other
filter is used, filter should be changed at manufacturer's
recommendation.
