PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil combines
the superior lubricity and performance capabilities of
a premium synthetic lubricant with special rust and corrosion
inhibitors. AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine
Motor Oil is recommended for engines used in marine applications,
as well as diesel engines used in trucks, fleets, mining,
earth moving, construction and farm equipment. Other applications
include taxi and local delivery fleets with gasoline or
diesel engines. With its extended drain intervals, AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil reduces
maintenance costs, downtime and the cost of waste oil
disposal.
Provides
High Shear Stability
AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil surpasses
the European ACEA and North American SAE oil specifications
for high temperature/high shear (HTHS) viscosity. It is
significantly more shear stable than conventional motor
oils, retaining its viscosity at temperatures and loads
that break down conventional oils. AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil maintains an extremely protective
viscosity of greater than 3.7 cP at 302°F (150°C) in the
ASTM D-4683 High Temperature/High Shear Test, exceeding
the test limits.
Prevents
Rust and Corrosion
AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil contains
special rust and corrosion-inhibiting additives to prevent
the rusting or corrosion of iron, copper, lead and aluminum
materials.
Improves
Fuel Economy
The
premium quality synthetic base stocks in AMSOIL Synthetic
Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil provide a tough
lubricating film on all engine parts, reducing friction
and fuel consumption. Reduced fuel consumption reduces
exhaust emissions of carbon dioxide, water and particulates.
Resists
Oxidation - Reduces Engine Wear
Conventional
oils oxidize at high temperatures, causing sludge and
deposit build-up that decrease fuel efficiency and contribute
to corrosion and increased engine wear. AMSOIL Synthetic
Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil, with a flash point
of 442°F (228°C), resists oxidation and thermal breakdown
far better than conventional oils. It continues to provide
maximum protection at temperatures that oxidize conventional
oils. Also, the advanced heat transfer capabilities and
high lubricity of AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and
Marine Motor Oil helps engines run cooler and reduces
wear.
Extended
Drain Intervals
AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil is formulated
for extended drain intervals. Its unique synthetic formulation,
improved detergent/dispersant capabilities, and long drain
additive package ensure maximum engine protection, cleanliness
and performance over extended drain periods. Its advanced
12 TBN formulation keeps engines in superb condition even
when the oil is used for extended drain intervals.
Provides
Low Temperature Protection
AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil remains
fluid at temperatures as low as -47°F (-44°C). It circulates
rapidly to provide vital lubrication and prevent engine
wear caused by lack of oil flow. AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil allows quicker, easier cold
temperature starting with less engine wear.
Reduces
Oil Consumption and Emissions
AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil passes
the NOACK Volatility Test. Many conventional lubricants
cannot pass this requirement. Low volatility means less
oil vapor passing into the combustion chamber. A reduction
of oil vapor means lower oil consumption and lower exhaust
emissions. The high detergent alkalinity of AMSOIL Synthetic
Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil also helps reduce
oil consumption.
MIXING
AMSOIL
AMSOIL
Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil is compatible
with conventional petroleum oils and other synthetic oils;
however, mixing AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel and
Marine Motor Oil with a conventional oil will shorten
the extended drain period of AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy-Duty
Diesel and Marine Motor Oil. Engine oil additives or after-market
products are not recommended for use with AMSOIL Synthetic
Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil.
SERVICE
LIFE
Diesel
engines, fleet vehicle engines and industrial engines:
drain oil at intervals up to two times longer than recommended
by the engine manufacturer or at six month intervals.
Extended drain intervals may be used if they are supported
by the findings of used oil analysis.
Personal
car and light-truck non-turbocharged gasoline engines
and marine craft gasoline engines: drain oil at intervals
up to three times longer than those recommended by the
engine manufacturer, or one year, whichever comes first.
Non-commercial,
turbocharged passenger car gasoline engines: drain oil
at intervals up to two times longer than those recommended
by the engine manufacturer, or six months, whichever comes
first.
High-performance
or racing engines: drain oil at intervals determined by
the findings of a used oil analysis program.
Motorcycle
engines and small four-cycle gasoline engines: use engine
manufacturer's oil drain recommendations.
Change
AMSOIL Full Flow Oil Filters at 12,500-mile or six-month
intervals, whichever comes first, in gasoline engines.
In diesel engines change AMSOIL Full-Flow Oil Filter at
7,000 miles or six months, whichever comes first. Change
other manufacturers' oil filters at the engine manufacturer's
recommended filter change intervals.
