PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are extended life formulations.
They exceed the current performance requirements for gasoline
engines and deliver exceptional performance by controlling
wear and maximizing fuel economy.
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are convenient
and cost effective. They last longer than conventional
petroleum motor oils, saving time and money. Motorists
traveling 15,000 miles per year need only change AMSOIL
XL motor oils twice, compared to five times for conventional
3,000-mile change intervals. While the initial fill may
be more expensive than conventional oil, mile for mile
AMSOIL XL costs less.
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils provide
peace of mind. The oil drain interval recommendations
for many of today’s vehicles extend well beyond the traditional
3,000-mile interval, some up to 12,000 miles with electronic
oil monitoring systems. And unlike petroleum oils that
have 3,000-mile maximum recommendations, AMSOIL XL Oils
provide 7,500-mile/six-month drain intervals or longer
where stated by vehicle manufacturers or indicated by
oil life monitoring systems. When using AMSOIL XL Synthetic
Motor Oils, protection and performance are not sacrificed
with longer drain intervals.
AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic
lubrication, produced the world’s first API qualified
synthetic motor oil back in 1972. Trust the extensive
experience of AMSOIL, The First in Synthetics®, to do
the best job protecting your vehicle.
Improved Fuel Economy
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are fuel efficient oils
formulated with friction modifiers to reduce energy loss
from friction. They provide better fuel economy compared
to conventional, non fuel-efficient motor oils.
Maintain Low Emissions
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are friendly toward modern
emission control systems, helping improve catalytic converter
service life for low exhaust emissions.
Protect Engines In All Temperatures
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are multi-viscosity formulations.
They provide optimum engine protection in both hot and
cold temperature conditions.
Keep Engines Clean
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are heavily fortified with
detergent/dispersant additives and are significantly more
resistant to sludge and carbon deposits than conventional
oils. AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils promote clean operation
for longer lasting, better running engines.
Lower Fleet Maintenance Costs
Cost conscious business owners and fleet managers benefit
from the extended drain intervals and wear protection
of high quality AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils. While
frequent oil changes are costly, time consuming and inconvenient,
longer drain intervals reduce costs (labor, used oil disposal,
facility demands) and improve environmental image.
Bid Appropriate
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils fulfill the requirements
of most public and private purchasing bids. These oils
are cost effective, making them ideal where synthetic
motor oil is specified.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are excellent for use in
all types of gasoline-fueled vehicles. They are recommended
for all domestic and foreign vehicles requiring any of
the listed performance specifications:
XLM 5W-20 Synthetic Motor Oil
- API SM/CF, SL, SJ ...
- ILSAC GF-4, 3 ...
- ACEA A1/B1
- JASO VTW
- GM 6094M
- Ford WSS-M2C930-A
- Daimler Chrysler MS-6395N
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are compatible with conventional
and other synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL XL Synthetic
Motor Oils with any other oil, however, will shorten the
oil life expectancy and reduce the associated performance
benefits. AMSOIL does not support extended drain intervals
where oils have been mixed. Aftermarket oil additives
are not recommended for use with AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor
Oils.
SERVICE LIFE
In gasoline-fueled vehicles, AMSOIL Extended Life Synthetic
Motor Oils are recommended for 7,500-mile/6-month oil
change intervals or longer where stated by vehicle manufacturers
or indicated by electronic oil life monitoring systems.
Change aftermarket, OEM or AMSOIL oil filter at every
oil change.
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.
CAUTION: Continuous contact with used
oil has caused skin cancer in lab testing. Avoid prolonged
skin contact. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water
after handling. Avoid eye contact. Flush eyes with water
for 15 minutes in case of contact. If swallowed, do not
induce vomiting. Contact a physician immediately. KEEP
OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Don't Pollute. Return
used oil to collection centers.
