PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil (ASL) delivers
extraordinary lubrication in all types of automotive gasoline engines. By
combining the industry premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL premium
additives, AMSOIL ASL exceeds the higher performance demands of modern
engines. It withstands the stress of higher horsepower, higher heat and
complicated emission control systems. AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil
consistently outperforms competitive conventional and synthetic motor oils.
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 5W-30 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 ASL 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 5W-30 Motor Oil is designed to maximize energy
efficiency for improved fuel economy. Unlike conventional oils, its uniform
molecular structure helps it flow more freely and reduce friction between
metal surfaces. Anti-friction additives are included to further improve
energy efficiency.
Reduces Engine Wear
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil provides outstanding anti-wear
protection. It has excellent viscosity film strength to separate metal
surfaces and robust anti-wear additives to further reduce wear in
metal-to-metal contact regions for improved engine life.
Reduces Oil Consumption
and Emissions
Evaporation (volatility) occurs when oil gets hot, causing high oil
consumption and emissions. AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil has the lowest
evaporation rate of the oils tested, making it the best at controlling
evaporationrelated oil consumption and emissions (see chart below).
Excels in Extreme
Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil resists thermal (heat) 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 ASL contains no wax. It stays fluid down to
-60°F for improved cold temperature oil flow, reduced bearing wear and
easier starting (see chart below).
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil is recommended for use in gasoline engines
and other applications requiring any of the listed worldwide specifications:
- API SM/CF, SL, SJ ...
- ILSAC GF-4- 3 ...
- ACEA A5/B5
- JASO VTW
- GM 4718M, 6094M
- Ford WSS M2C929-A
- Daimler Chrysler MS-6395N
- VW 503.00, 505.00
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL ASL 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-30 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.
• Replace AMSOIL Ea oil filter at 25,000 miles or one year, whichever
comes first (Change other brands at standard OEM* intervals).
• Severe Service(4) – Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes
first.
• Replace AMSOIL oil filter at 15,000 miles or six months, whichever
comes first (other brands at standard OEM* intervals).
• In all other applications, extend the oil change interval according to
oil analysis or follow the OEM* drain interval.
*OEM – Original Equipment Manufacturer
(1) Where the engine or operating conditions have been
modified from the original manufacturers’ design, drain oil at the owner’s
discretion or extend based on oil analysis. Examples include the use of
performance computer chips; modified exhaust, fuel or air induction systems;
and the use of fuels other than those recommended for normal operation by
the manufacturers.
(2) Engines are in good working condition and within the
factory design settings. Mechanically sound engines, for example, do not
leak oil or consume excessive amounts, are not worn out, do not overheat, do
not have internal or external anti-freeze leaks and have properly working
emission control systems. AMSOIL recommends repairing malfunctioning engines
prior to the installation of AMSOIL synthetic oils.
(3) Non-turbo/non-supercharged personal transportation
vehicles frequently traveling greater than 10 miles at a time and not
operating under severe service.
(4) Turbo/supercharged vehicles, commercial or fleet
vehicles, extensive engine idling, first use and subsequent use of AMSOIL
engine oil in vehicles with 100,000 miles or greater, daily short trip
driving (less than 10 miles), frequent towing, plowing or hauling heavy
loads and frequent driving in dusty conditions.
AMSOIL Ea 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.

AMSOIL synthetic motor oils are fully compatible with
conventional motor oil. For best results, however, use
AMSOIL Engine
Flush, then install AMSOIL synthetic motor oil.
For maximum engine protection, use an
AMSOIL Oil
Filter and an
AMSOIL Air Filter.
Note: Most quick lube service centers will
install these products upon request or install them yourself.
