Wear control -- AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils have been proven to keep wear rates lower than conventional oils do (see demonstrations and tests below). Synthetic basestocks reduce friction more effectively than conventional basestocks do, which lowers wear rates and helps keep engine heat from climbing excessively. Outstanding quality anti-wear additives protect surfaces from wear in conditions in which a full lubricating film does not develop.
Acid neutralization and soot control -- AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils are 12 Total Base Number (TBN) oils and have been proven to neutralize acids and control corrosion for longer periods than conventional oils do (see demonstrations and tests below). The top-quality detergents responsible for long-term acid neutralization also inhibit deposit formation on hot engine surfaces. AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils' highly effective dispersants control soot and other contaminants for long-lasting protection against wear and sludge formation.
Low temperature fluidity -- AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils remain fluid in low temperatures. Low temperature fluidity helps engines start in cold temperatures and ensures rapid cold-temperature post-startup protection.
Chemical and physical stability -- AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils offer superior thermal, oxidative and shear stability. Thermal stability allows them to work in high temperatures without undergoing molecular breakdown with consequent increases in oil consumption and formation of sludge precursors. Oxidative stability allows them to work in high temperatures without undergoing chemical changes leading to oil thickening, loss of lubricating ability, and sludge and acid formation. Shear stability keeps them from falling out of viscosity grade and losing their ability to protect against metal-to-metal contact and wear in engine operating temperatures as a result of shear forces.
Fuel economy -- AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils' low coefficient of friction improves fuel economy by reducing the loss of power to friction. Fuel economy increases of five percent are common with AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils.
Extended drain intervals -- Fleet demonstrations show AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils protect engines more effectively for extended drain intervals than conventional oils do for conventional drain intervals (see below). Many truckers use AMSOIL synthetic diesel motor oils indefinitely, using oil analysis as their guide to oil changes.
AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil, formulated for diesel and gasoline engine use, offers a combination of engine protection and fuel economy unmatched by other oils.

AMSOIL Synthetic Gear Lubes keep differentials and gear-lube equipped transmissions running clean, protected and at top-efficiency.
Load-bearing and extreme pressure protection -- AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes are formulated to protect gears operating in heavily loaded conditions, whether or not the gears operate with full film lubrication. Superior film strength and viscosity retention offer superior protection in full film regimes, while top-quality extreme pressure agents protect when a full lubricating film does not separate gear surfaces.
The thermal durability of AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes ensures extreme pressure protection after extended exposure to extreme temperatures. The extreme pressure agents in conventional gear lubes sometimes lose their effectiveness after extended exposure to high temperatures, leaving gears vulnerable to metal-to-metal contact and wear.
Friction-reduction -- AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes reduce friction effectively, which reduces power losses and increases fuel economy.
The superior ability of AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes to reduce friction also helps keep gear operating temperatures from rising out of the optimal range. Users report gear temperature reduction up to 50 deg. F with AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes.
High and low temperature performance -- AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes maintain their viscosity better with changes in temperature than conventional lubes do, which allows them to protect over a broader temperature range.
AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes also maintain better low temperature fluidity than conventional gear lubes do, so AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes go to work more quickly in cold conditions than conventional lubes do. Studies have shown AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes flow to operating gears in less than a minute, while conventional gear lubes require as much as five minutes to reach the gears they are meant to protect.
AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes protect in higher temperatures than conventional gear lubes do, due to the superior thermal and oxidative stability of AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes. Superior thermal and oxidative stability protects the lube from breaking down in high temperatures and protects gears from sludge, varnish, deposits and other products of lubricant breakdown.
Extended drains -- In commercial vehicles operated in normal conditions, AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes may be used up to five times longer than conventional petroleum gear lubes may be used.
More -- AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes provide limited slip capability, and may be used in limited slip differentials without special additives.

 Dual Gard By-Pass Oil Filtration SystemThe AMSOIL Dual Gard By-Pass Oil Filtration System treats oil to ultra-fine filtration which increases engine and oil life and enhances engine performance. The Ea By-Pass Oil Filter (EaBP) provides the best possible filtration protection against wear and oil degradation. Working in conjunction with the engine’s full-flow oil filter, the AMSOIL Ea By-Pass Filter operates by filtering oil on a "partial-flow" basis. It draws approximately 10 percent of the oil pump’s capacity at any one time and traps the extremely small, wear-causing contaminants that full-flow filters can’t remove. The AMSOIL Ea Bypass Filter typically filters all the oil in the system several times an hour, so the engine continuously receives analytically clean oil. |
Over-the-Road Fleet
Using AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Heavy Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil, AMSOIL By-Pass Oil Filters and used oil analysis, an over-the-road flatbed fleet extended vehicle drain intervals to 79,000+ miles and realized a 29 percent reduction in the costs of oil-related materials and labor.
Used oil analysis confirmed the high quality protection afforded by AMSOIL. Wear metal, soot and TAN values remained low throughout the demonstration, while TBN remained high and viscosity midrange.
Grocery Warehouse Fleet
Using AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Heavy Duty Diesel and Marine Oil, AMSOIL By-Pass Oil Filters and used oil analysis, a grocery warehouse fleet extended its oil drain intervals to 74,000+ miles and realized a 22 percent decrease in labor and oil-related expenses. (For the full text on this Field Test and more information, click here.)
Used oil analysis confirmed the superior protection afforded by AMSOIL. Wear metal, soot and TAN values remained low throughout the demonstration, while TBN remained high and viscosity midrange. Note the significant viscosity loss suffered by the conventional control oil. Viscosity loss often leads to excessive wear.
After 409,000 miles without an oil change, the AMSOIL-protected Mack engine in this 1990 truck was as wear-free as an engine in comparable service treated to TWENTY TIMES the oil changes. (For the full text of this Field Test and more pictures, click here.)
Colonial Heights, Virginia -- "I didn’t see any surprises in there at all," said owner/operator Haywood Gray of his 1990 Mack E7-400 engine.
Using AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Heavy Duty Diesel and Marine Oil and the AMSOIL By-Pass Oil Filter Gray ran the engine 409,000 miles without once changing the oil.
When the E7-400 engine was torn down by the local Mack dealership and its parts examined by an independent certified engine rater, it showed light to moderate wear throughout.
In fact, according to the engine rater, the parts could have been put right back in the engine. "I see no reason why the engine couldn’t run on," he said.
Oil analysis confirmed the rater’s findings: the sample of used AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Heavy Duty Diesel and Marine Oil contained 1/6 the lead and 1/3 the iron allowed by Mack condemnation limits . . . after 409,000 miles without an oil change.
That’s protection -- that’s AMSOIL!
