PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic 0W-20 Motor Oil (ASM) delivers extraordinary
lubrication for automotive gasoline engines. AMSOIL combined the
industry premier synthetic technology and additives into a light
viscosity formulation that withstands high temperatures and delivers
outstanding fuel economy and cold temperature performance. AMSOIL
ASM replaces SAE 5W-20 and is recommended for extended drain
intervals according to AMSOIL service interval guidelines. 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 0W-20 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 ASM 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 0W-20 Motor Oil is designed to maximize energy
efficiency for improved fuel economy. Its light viscosity properties
reduce drag and its uniform molecular structure helps it flow more
freely to lower friction between metal surfaces. Anti-friction
additives are included to further improve energy efficiency.
Protects Against Wear
AMSOIL Synthetic 0W-20 Motor Oil is a shear stable formulation with
a high viscosity index. It provides excellent viscosity film
strength to separate metal surfaces and contains robust anti-wear
additives for the best possible engine protection.
Reduces Oil Consumption and Emissions
Volatility (burn-off) occurs when oil gets hot, causing high oil
consumption and emissions. AMSOIL Synthetic 0W-20 Motor Oil has a
very low volatility rate, making it excellent at controlling
volatility related oil consumption and emissions.
Excels in Extreme Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 0W-20 Motor Oil resists thermal 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 ASM contains no wax. It
stays fluid down to -65°F for improved cold temperature oil flow,
reduced bearing wear and easier starting.
Applications
AMSOIL Synthetic 0W-20 Motor Oil is recommended for Honda, Acura,
DaimlerChrysler, Toyota, Ford and all other applications where SAE
0W-20 or 5W-20 is required with the following specifications:
- API SM/CF, SL, SJ. . .
- ILSAC GF-4, 3. . .
- ACEA A1/B1
- Ford WSS-M2C930-A
- DaimlerChrysler MS-6395N
Mixing AMSOIL
AMSOIL ASM 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 of AMSOIL.
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 0W-20 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.
• Severe Service(4) – Up to 15,000 miles or
one year, whichever comes first.
• Replace AMSOIL Ea Oil Filter at the time of
oil change, up to 25,000 miles or one year service life,
whichever comes first (other brands at standard OEM* intervals).
• In all non-gasoline fueled vehicle
applications, extend the oil change interval according to oil
analysis or follow the OEM* drain interval.
*OEM – Original Equipment
Manufacturer
(1) Engines operating under
modified conditions are excluded from extended drain
recommendations. Examples include the use of performance
computer chips; non-OEM approved exhaust, fuel or air induction
systems; and the use of fuels other than those recommended for
normal operation by the manufacturers.
(2) Mechanically sound engines
are in good working condition and do not, for example, leak oil
or consume excessive amounts, are not worn out, do not overheat,
do not have leak anti-freeze and have properly working emission
control systems. AMSOIL recommends repairing malfunctioning
engines prior to the installation of AMSOIL synthetic oils.
(3) Personal vehicles
frequently traveling greater than 10 miles (16 km) at a time and
not operating under severe service.
(4) Turbo or supercharged
vehicles, commercial or fleet vehicles, excessive engine idling,
first and subsequent use of AMSOIL in vehicles with over 100,000
miles, daily short trip driving less than 10 miles (16k),
frequent towing, plowing, hauling or dusty condition
driving.
AMSOIL Ea Full-Flow 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
Ea Full-Flow Filters.
