AMSOIL introduced the world’s first synthetic motor oil for diesel engines in 1975 and redefined the performance and protection available to diesel engine owners. Diesels are synonymous with power. They tow our toys, haul our tools and get our blood pumping. But all that power challenges lubricants and threatens to sideline your high-performance diesel. AMSOIL meets the challenge with performance products designed to help you maximize your diesel’s potential and protect its hard-working components – and your wallet – for long equipment life. ;

Protection and Performance AMSOIL synthetic diesel oils reduce friction and wear better than conventional oils helping hard working diesel engines perform better and last longer. They withstand high temperature breakdown to help prevent harmful deposits from forming, while remaining fluid in sub-zero temperatures for easier cold starts and fast circulation and protection. ;

Maximum Fuel Economy AMSOIL synthetic diesel oils’ advanced lubricity results not only in enhanced performance and protection, but increased fuel efficiency as well. With less resistance to internal moving parts, engines are able to operate at peak efficiency and deliver maximum MPG. ;

Extended Drain Intervals* AMSOIL coined the phrase “extended drain interval” over 40 years ago. Advanced chemistries allow extended-drain AMSOIL synthetic diesel oils to remain effective up to three times longer than original equipment manufacturer (OEM) recommendations. Motorist can benefit through reduced oil costs, save time with fewer oil changes and at the same time help the environment with less used oil disposal. ;

Diesel Engine Service Life:
  • ;2007-Present Dodge, Ford and GM light-duty diesel pickups must follow OEM-recommended drain interval. Drain intervals may be extended with oil analysis. (For newer vehicles check your owner’s manual to see if the original equipment manufacturer now allows for extended drain intervals). ; ;
  • ;Three times (3X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed 50,000 miles/600 hours or one year, whichever comes first. Drain intervals may be extended further with oil analysis. ;
  • ;2007-2009 Caterpillar C13 and C15 on-highway engines must follow OEM-recommended drain interval.

* Operating conditions and drain intervals for normal and severe service are defined by the OEM. Refer to your owner’s manual. ;

;Note: Extended drain intervals are not recommended when using biofuels containing ;10% ethanol or 5% biodiesel (B5). Follow OEM drain intervals or extend drain intervals with oil analysis. ;
