AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic
5W-30 Motor Oil (ASL) delivers extraordinary lubrication
in all types of automotive gasoline engines. By
combining the industry premier synthetic technology
with AMSOIL premium additives, AMSOIL ASL exceeds
the higher performance demands of modern engines.
It withstands the stress of higher horsepower,
higher heat and complicated emission control systems.
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil consistently
outperforms competitive conventional and synthetic
motor oils. It delivers long-lasting performance
and protection.
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 Synthetic 5W-30
Motor Oil can extend drain intervals far beyond
those recommended for conventional oils. Its unique
synthetic formulation and long drain additive
system are very stable, resisting oxidation and
neutralizing acids. AMSOIL ASL delivers 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
Motor Oil is designed to maximize energy efficiency
for improved fuel economy. Unlike conventional
oils, its uniform molecular structure helps it
flow more freely and reduce friction between metal
surfaces. Anti-friction additives are included
to further improve energy efficiency.
Reduces Engine Wear
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30
Motor Oil provides outstanding anti-wear protection.
It has excellent viscosity film strength to separate
metal surfaces and robust anti-wear additives
to further reduce wear in metal-to-metal contact
regions for improved engine life.
Reduces Oil Consumption
and Emissions
Evaporation (volatility)
occurs when oil gets hot, causing high oil consumption
and emissions. AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil
has the lowest evaporation rate of the oils tested,
making it the best at controlling evaporationrelated
oil consumption and emissions (see chart below).
Excels in Extreme
Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30
Motor Oil resists thermal (heat) breakdown better
than conventional oils. It is heavily fortified
with detergent and dispersant additives to prevent
sludge deposits and keep engines clean. And unlike
conventional oils, AMSOIL ASL contains no wax.
It stays fluid down to -60°F for improved cold
temperature oil flow, reduced bearing wear and
easier starting (see chart below).
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30
Motor Oil is recommended for use in gasoline
engines and other applications requiring any
of the listed worldwide specifications:
- API SM/CF, SL, SJ
...
- ILSAC GF-4- 3 ...
- ACEA A5/B5
- JASO VTW
- GM 4718M, 6094M
- Ford WSS M2C929-A
- Daimler Chrysler
MS-6395N
-
VW
503.00, 505.00
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.
•Replace
AMSOIL oil filter at 12,500 miles or six months,
whichever comes first (other brands at standard
OEM* intervals).
• Severe Service(4)
- Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever
comes first.
•Replace
AMSOIL oil filter at 15,000 miles or six months,
whichever comes first (other brands at standard
OEM* intervals).
• In all other applications,
extend the oil change interval according to
oil analysis or follow the OEM* drain interval.
*OEM - Original Equipment
Manufacturer
(1) Where the engine
or operating conditions have been modified from
the original manufacturers' design, drain oil
at the owner's discretion or extend based on
oil analysis. 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
properly working emission control systems. AMSOIL
recommends repairing malfunctioning engines
prior to the installation of AMSOIL synthetic
oils.
(3) Non-turbo/non-supercharged
personal transportation vehicles frequently
traveling greater than 10 miles at a time and
not operating under severe service.
(4) Turbo/supercharged
vehicles, commercial or fleet vehicles, extensive
engine idling, first use and subsequent use
of AMSOIL engine oil in vehicles with 100,000
miles or greater, daily short trip driving (less
than 10 miles), frequent towing, plowing or
hauling heavy loads and frequent driving in
dusty conditions.
AMSOIL 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.
