AMSOIL Series 3000 5W-30 Heavy Duty Synthetic Diesel Oil
Fuel efficient formula for both gasoline
and diesel fleets. Deliver up to 82 percent greater
wear protection than other popular diesel oils. Series
3000 resists oil breakdown from heat, blow-by chemicals
and oxygen up to ten times longer than conventional
oils.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Series 3000 100% Synthetic
5W-30 Diesel Oil (HDD) delivers extraordinary lubrication
in both diesel and gasoline engines found in commercial,
fleet and personal vehicles. By combining the industrys
premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL premium additives,
AMSOIL HDD exceeds the higher performance demands
of modern engines. It withstands the stress of higher
heat, higher acid levels and excessive soot loading
found in EGR equipped engines. AMSOIL Series 3000
Synthetic 5W-30 Diesel Oil consistently outperforms
conventional and synthetic diesel oils for long-lasting
performance and protection.
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 HDD can extend drain intervals
far beyond those recommended for conventional oils.
Its unique synthetic formulation and long drain additive
system deliver the best possible engine protection,
cleanliness and performance over extended drain intervals,
reducing vehicle maintenance and waste oil disposal
costs.
MAXIMIZES FUEL ECONOMY
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil is energy efficient for reduced fuel costs.
Its low viscosity minimizes drag associated
with high viscosity oils, allowing the engine to operate
more freely, maximizing power and fuel economy.
UNSURPASSED PROTECTION AGAINST ENGINE
WEAR
In the Four-Ball Wear Test (ASTM
D-4172B) AMSOIL HDD demonstrated better anti-wear
performance than competitive petroleum and synthetic
oils. Even under high temperatures and pressures,
its superior film strength and anti-wear additives
help prevent metal-to-metal contact. AMSOIL HDD reduces
ring wear, cylinder bore polishing, oil consumption
and valve train wear for improved engine life and
lower maintenance costs.
CONTROLS SOOT THICKENING AND WEAR
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil is heavily fortified with detergent/dispersant
additives and is naturally resistant to soot. It keeps
soot particles suspended independently, preventing
them from attaching together to form larger, wear-causing
particles. Viscosity increase is minimized and soot
related wear is controlled.
REDUCES OIL CONSUMPTION AND EMISSIONS
AMSOIL HDD loses only 6.7% of its
mass to high temperature volatility (evaporation)
in the NOACK test, outperforming all conventional
oils. Because less oil vapor passes into the combustion
chamber, oil consumption and emissions are reduced.
Additionally, lower volatility helps AMSOIL HDD retain
its viscosity after high temperature service for continued
dependable protection and excellent fuel economy.
EXCELS IN EXTREME TEMPERATURES
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil resists thermal (heat) breakdown, oxidation
and sludge formation better than conventional oils.
And unlike conventional petroleum oils, AMSOIL HDD
contains no wax. It stays fluid down to -60°F
for improved cold temperature oil flow, reduced bearing
wear and easier starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil is recommended for diesel engines and other
applications requiring any of the listed worldwide
specifications and gasoline engines requiring API
SL, SJ, SH . . . or ACEA A3.
- API CI-4+, CF, CF-2, SL
- ACEA A3/B3, E2, E3, E5
- Global DHD-1
- JASO DH-1
- Mack EO-N Premium Plus 03
- DDC Power Guard 93K214
- Caterpillar ECF-1
- Cummins CES 20071, 20072, 20076, 20077, 20078
- Volvo VDS-2, VDS-3
- MB 228.1, 228.3, 229.1
- MAN 3275
- MTU Type 1
- MIL-PRF-2104G
- Allison C-4
AMSOIL HDD 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 Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil is recommended for extended drain intervals
in unmodified(1), mechanically sound(2) vehicles or
equipment as follows:
Personal Light Truck Diesel or
Gasoline Engine Service
Normal Service(3) Up to 25,000 miles
or one year, whichever comes first, or longer based
on oil analysis.
Severe Service(4) Up to 15,000 miles
or one year, whichever comes first, or longer based
on oil analysis.
Replace AMSOIL Ea full flow oil filter
or Donaldson Endurance ELF 7349 at the time
of oil change up to 25,000 miles (other brands at
standard OEM* intervals). Commercial or Fleet Vehicles,
Long-Haul Trucks, Marine Craft, RV, Off-Road Equipment
Non-EGR equipped diesels extend drain
intervals up to two times (2X) the OEM* recommended
drain interval or one year, whichever comes first,
or longer based on oil analysis.
EGR equipped or low emission diesels
extend drain intervals based on oil analysis or
use the OEM* recommended interval.
Replace Donaldson Endurance or AMSOIL
Ea full flow oil filters at the time of oil
change up to two times (2X) longer than the OEM*
standard interval, not to exceed 60,000 miles in
long-haul trucks.
*OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer
(1) Where the engine or operating
conditions have been modified from the original manufacturers
design, no oil change interval recommendation is made.
Oil change intervals are at the owners discretion.
Examples include the use of performance computer chips;
modified exhaust, fuel or air induction systems and
the use of fuels other than those recommended for
normal operation by the manufacturers.
(2) Engines are in good working condition
and within the factory design settings. Mechanically
sound engines, for example, do not leak oil or consume
excessive amounts, are not worn out, do not overheat,
do not have internal or external anti-freeze leaks
and have a properly working emission control system.
AMSOIL recommends repairs be made to malfunctioning
engines prior to the installation of AMSOIL synthetic
oils.
(3) Personal transportation vehicles
frequently traveling greater than 10 miles at a time
and not operating under severe service.
(4) Diesel and gasoline engines
commercial or fleet vehicles, extensive engine idling,
daily short trip driving less than 10 miles (16 km),
frequent towing, plowing or hauling heavy loads, frequent
driving in dusty conditions. Also, first and subsequent
use of AMSOIL engine oil in gasoline engines with
100,000 miles or greater and turbo/supercharged gasoline
engines.
AMSOIL Ea and Donaldson Endurance
full flow oil filters are designed for extended drain
intervals. They stop smaller particles, have less
restriction and last longer than regular filters.
For best performance, use AMSOIL Ea or Donaldson
Endurance oil filters. Oil Analyzers Inc., 715-395-0222,
is a division of AMSOIL that provides cost effective,
quality oil analysis services.
