AMSOIL 100% Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil exceeds
the lubrication requirements of all modern automobile engines.
It provides tough lubricating protection in the most demanding
operating conditions. AMSOIL 10W-30 resists high temperature degradation
and flows freely in cold conditions for superior protection against
engine wear. AMSOIL 10W-30 also provides maximum power and improved
fuel efficiency.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil (ATM)
delivers extraordinary lubrication in all types of automotive
gasoline engines. By combining the industry premier synthetic
technology with AMSOIL premium additives, AMSOIL ATM exceeds the
higher performance demands of modern engines. It withstands the
stress of higher horsepower, higher heat and complicated emission
control systems. AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-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 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 vehicle.
Extends Drain Intervals
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-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 ATM 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 10W-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 10W-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
10W-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).
Excels in Extreme Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-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 ATM contains no wax. It stays fluid down to -58°F for
improved cold temperature oil flow, reduced bearing wear and easier
starting (see chart).
APPLICATIONS:
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-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-M2C205-A
- Daimler Chrysler MS-6395N
- VW 503.00
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL ATM is compatible with conventional and
syntheticmotor 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 10W-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
owners 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 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.
