The needs of automotive and industrial equipment
have continued to place increasing demands on the lubrication
industry. Over the years, AMSOIL research and development has
responded to changes in the industry by developing products that
keep AMSOIL on the cutting edge. The new AMS-Oiler™ is the most
recent example in a long line of top-quality innovations from
AMSOIL.
Independent studies have concluded that engine
wear during start-up is a major concern. Even though engine components
remain dry for only a short period of time at ignition, when this
circumstance is multiplied by the 400 to 600 dry starts a year
by the average motorist, the potential for harmful metal-on-metal
contact and significant wear is great.
The AMS-Oiler™ is an oil pre-charger that puts
an end to dry-engine starting. Typically, an engine that sits
idle for even a short period of time will operate relatively dry
upon starting before oil is able to fully lubricate the system.
In fact, the automotive industry estimates that up to 50 percent
of engine bearing wear occurs during the starting process. Indeed,
the superiority of AMSOIL motor oils minimizes start-up wear by
clinging to the metal surfaces, but even more can be done to concentrate
the oil on the critical wear areas in an engine. With the AMS-Oiler
in place, 160 cubic centimeters of oil is injected directly on
the engine bearings and other wear sensitive surfaces upon
turning of the key, giving instant protection to vital engine
components.
The AMS-Oiler™ outperforms gas and air charge
systems. When the ignition key is turned to the on position, an
audible alarm sounds while a 12-volt DC solenoid initiates the
AMS-Oiler's operation. When the oil delivery process is complete,
the alarm ceases and the operator can start the engine. The engine
can be started at any time without damage to the AMS-Oiler™, however,
the AMS-Oiler™ is recharged by the pressure generated by the engine's
oil pump. Complete recharge is accomplished within 40 seconds.
The absence of a gas or air charge eliminates the possibility
of cross-contamination of dirty gas or air with the engine oil,
keeping the oil pure and performing optimally. The design of the
AMS-Oiler™ reservoir also protects the unit from ambient temperature
fluctuations.

Specially crafted by AMSOIL technicians, the
AMS-Oiler™ is the culmination of extensive research and development.
“Our products are exceptional when it comes to reducing wear during
operation,” said Technical Director Dave Anderson. “The weakest
link in the chain, however, was still during startup. With the
AMS-Oiler™, we’re closing that last gap.”
With an extremely rugged chrome plated hi-grade
carbon steel reservoir and anodized aluminum base, the AMS-Oiler™
is crafted to withstand severe service and to perform reliably
in any personal, commercial or industrial application.
Unlike other pre-charger systems, the AMS-Oiler™
has no bulky moving parts which need maintenance and does not
rely on pressurized gas to function. The AMS-Oiler™ is a self
contained, streamlined unit that has a mechanical life cycle exceeding
one million engine starts, with no maintenance required. The AMS-Oiler™
is self-lubricating with an integrated overpressure protection
device that protects units from retaining pressures in excess
of 90 p.s.i.
In order to meet consumers’ needs, AMSOIL has
designed two AMS-Oiler™ models to cover all applications. The
first model is crafted to attach directly to the AMSOIL Dual-Remote
and Dual-Guard By-Pass Filtration mounts, with the second model
designed as a stand-alone system for all other engine applications
up to 500 CID (cubic inch displacement)(8.2L). The AMS-Oiler™
retro-fit applicability to the AMSOIL By-Pass filtration systems
provides a convenient perch for quick installation. For non by-pass-equipped
engines, the stand-alone AMS-Oiler™ mounts easily at any angle
to accommodate virtually every engine.
With the new AMS-Oiler™, AMSOIL continues to
make lubrication history, with quality still the number one priority.

AMS-Oiler™ Market Application
While every engine can benefit from the use of
an AMS-Oiler™, vehicles especially prone to frequent starting
and engines that sit idle for extended periods of time would extend
their engine life with the simple addition of an AMS-Oiler™. An
AMS-Oiler™ can provide the instant lubrication necessary to save
these engines significant wear and prevent damaging metal-on-metal
contact.
