PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40
(DEO) is the premium choice for API CJ-4 emission
quality diesel oil required by model year 2007 and
newer diesel engines. It delivers extraordinary
lubrication in diesel engines found in commercial,
fleet and personal vehicles. Built with the latest
additive and synthetic base oil technology, AMSOIL
Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil exceeds the higher
performance demands of modern engines. It
withstands the stress of heat, soot and acids to
help prevent deposits, corrosion and wear. AMSOIL
Synthetic 5W-40, with its broad viscosity range,
is ideal for winter and summer use. It resists
breakdown and can extend drain intervals when
monitored by oil analysis.
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.
Exceeds Emission System
Requirements
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40
Diesel Oil is a low sulfated ash formulation that
exceeds the modern requirements for low emission
quality diesel oil. It is compatible with all
exhaust treatment devices and is designed to
extend the service life of particulate
filters.
Controls Soot Thickening
and Wear
The advanced synthetic base
oils in AMSOIL 5W-40 Diesel Oil are naturally
resistant to soot contamination. That, along with
a heavy fortification of detergent/dispersant
additives, keeps soot particles suspended
independently, helping prevent the formation of
larger wear causing particles. Viscosity increase
is minimized and soot related wear is
controlled.
Maximizes Fuel Economy and
Reduces Oil Consumption
AMSOIL
Synthetic 5W-40 Premium Diesel Oil has a very low
high temperature volatility rate (burn off).
Because less oil vapor passes into the combustion
chamber, oil consumption and emissions are
reduced. Additionally, lower volatility helps
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 retain its viscosity after
high temperature service for continued dependable
protection and excellent fuel economy.
Excels in Extreme
Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40
Premium Diesel Oil resists thermal (heat)
breakdown, oxidation and sludge formation better
than conventional petroleum oils. And unlike
conventional oils, AMSOIL 5W-40 contains no wax.
It stays fluid in cold temperatures for improved
oil flow, reduced bearing wear and easier
starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL
Synthetic 5W-40 Premium Diesel Oil replaces 5W-40,
10W-40 and 15W-40 viscosity oils. It is “backwards
compatible” with pre-2007 diesel engines and
recommended for newer and older diesel and
gasoline engines and other applications requiring
the following worldwide specifications:
• API CJ-4, CI-4+, CH-4, CF
•
API SM, SL, SJ...
• ACEA E7
• Mack EO-O
Premium Plus
• DDC Power Guard 93K218
•
Caterpillar ECF-3, ECF-1
• Cummins CES
20081
• Volvo VDS-4
• MB 228.3
• MTU
Type II
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 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. 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 5W-40 Premium
Diesel Oil is recommended for use according to the
longest service interval established by the
engine, vehicle or equipment manufacturer. Drain
intervals may be extended when monitored by oil
analysis.
AMSOIL Ea™ and Donaldson
Endurance™ full flow oil filters are designed for
extended drain intervals. They stop smaller
particles, have less restriction and last longer
than regular filters. For best performance use
AMSOIL Ea™ or Donaldson Endurance™ oil
filters.
