The Benefits of AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oils
Improved Performance More Power The smooth molecular structures of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils create less intrafluid friction than the relatively rough molecular structures of conventional motor oils, while their high film strengths reduce metal-to-metal friction. Engines running AMSOIL synthetic motor oil waste less energy overcoming intrafluid and metal-to-metal friction, allowing them to deliver more power to the transmission. Vehicles respond quicker and achieve faster top speeds.
Increased Fuel Economy The low intrafluid friction and metal-to-metal friction-reducing properties of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils also improve fuel economy by delivering more of the energy created through combustion of the air-fuel mixture to the transmission.
Unlike conventional oils, AMSOIL synthetic motor oils contain no light molecules that may be lost to volatilization. Volatilization thickens conventional oils and makes them more difficult to pump, while the low volatilization of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils helps them maintain their original viscosity and fuel economy benefits.
Cold-Temperature Starting AMSOIL synthetic motor oils retain better cold-temperature cranking and pumping characteristics than petroleum oils. Because AMSOIL synthetic motor oils resist viscosity increases in cold temperatures, they allow the crankshaft to turn fast enough to start the engine in cold winter temperatures. Resistance to cold-temperature viscosity increases also allows AMSOIL synthetic motor oils to maintain their pumpability for fast poststartup engine lubrication and excellent wear protection.
Increased Vehicle Life
Wear Control Viscosity Retention – The superior chemistry of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils helps them maintain thick protective oil films in high-temperature operating conditions. Many competing motor oils contain low-quality additives prone to rupture during periods of mechanical stress, affecting the oil’s ability to maintain a thick protective oil film during high-temperature operating conditions and exposing critical engine parts to increased levels of wear. Film Strength – AMSOIL synthetic motor oils feature molecules of uniform size and shape and uniformly-strong intermolecular bonds, helping them maintain an unbroken lubricating film even when faced with stressful engine operations such as rapid acceleration and deceleration. Corrosion Protection – Acids form as combustion byproducts, such as water, combine with oxidation byproducts or fuel or air constituents such as sulfur or nitrogen. Acids corrode metals, while heat helps acids damage metal engine parts very rapidly. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils contain highly-effective acid-neutralizing additives, something especially beneficial for diesel engines. Water is a normal combustion byproduct that condenses on engine surfaces once they cool. Allowed to remain on these engine surfaces, it promotes corrosion. Stored engines are particularly prone to corrosion damage. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils form a water occlusive barrier on metal surfaces, protecting them from corrosion. Foam Suppression – Engine operation can whip air into motor oil and impair its ability to provide adequate wear protection. Anti-foam additives in AMSOIL synthetic motor oils enhance wear protection by collapsing entrained air bubbles. Contaminant Suspension – Dirt, engine wear metals and combustion byproducts such as soot work to accelerate engine wear. Motor oil reduces the damage caused by these contaminants by carrying them to the oil filter, where they become trapped. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils are formulated with highly-effective dispersant additives that keep contaminants suspended in the oil stream until they reach the oil filter. Diesel engines are particularly subject to soot contamination. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils reduce damage caused by soot by keeping soot particles from agglomerating. As soot agglomerates and particles grow in size, wear can occur. Furthermore, viscosity increases, which may lead to filter plugging.
Heat Stress Control Heat Transfer – Excessive engine heat promotes excessive engine wear and can lead to part failure. The saturated molecular structure of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils withstands higher temperatures than conventional oils before the oil breaks down. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils possess a high degree of thermal conductivity, providing cooler-running engines. Thermal Stability – The uniformly-sized and -shaped molecules and uniformly strong intermolecular bonds of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils remain intact during high-temperature operation, protecting engines from varnish and coke and providing constant lubrication protection during extreme- temperature operation. Low Volatility – The light molecules present in conventional oils tend to volatilize in the presence of heat, thickening the oil and making it more difficult to pump, stressing the engine, increasing wear and decreasing fuel economy. Because they contain no light molecules that volatilize in the presence of heat, AMSOIL synthetic motor oils maintain their superior protection qualities in high-temperature operating conditions. Oxidative Stability – Certain oxidation products, such as sludge, interfere with the engine’s ability to function, while others, such as acids, contribute to engine damage. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils are highly supplemented with multiple premium-grade oxidation inhibitors, effectively resisting oxidation.
Other Benefits Reduced Repairs – The superior protection and performance benefits of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils reduce engine component failures, saving time and money spent on engine repairs. Reduced Maintenance – The superior formulations of AMSOIL synthetic motor oils allow them to last much longer than competing conventional and synthetic motor oils. While competing motor oil companies typically recommend 3,000-mile drain intervals, AMSOIL synthetic motor oils are recommended for drain intervals of up to 25,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first. Reduced Solid Waste – Because AMSOIL synthetic motor oils may be used over eight times longer than conventional oils, AMSOIL users produce significantly less used oil waste. Reduced Air Pollution – Because AMSOIL synthetic motor oils improve fuel economy, they effectively reduce harmful exhaust emissions. Save Money – AMSOIL synthetic motor oils save money by extending engine life, reducing repairs and maintenance, increasing oil drain intervals and increasing fuel economy.

Dependable Cold-Weather Performance
Many consumers use the fall months to prepare their vehicles and equipment for winter. If there’s a weak point in a
vehicle, it seems as though the cold will fi nd it and create problems. Plastic becomes brittle, fuel and lubricants can gel
and extreme cold is just plain hard on things. The winter months bring unique challenges for lubricants and are great for
showcasing the enhanced performance benefits of AMSOIL synthetic lubricants. Conventional lubricants are far more
susceptible to the effects of extreme temperatures. Extreme cold at startup can cause oils to thicken, starving vital moving
parts of necessary lubrication. In many cases the motor oil will thicken to the point that the vehicle will not start. Many
motorists let vehicles idle for extended periods to warm the interior and defrost the windows. Others create extreme heat
in the engine by plowing or getting stuck in deep snow. These are just a few examples of the many challenges lubricants
face in a typical North American winter. AMSOIL synthetic lubricants are formulated for maximum cold-temperature
performance, allowing quick starts, superior protection and versatility.
Keep Engines Protected
AMSOIL synthetic motor oils provide superior protection and performance in cold-weather applications. They dramatically
outperform conventional petroleum motor oils, especially in the cold. Conventional petroleum lubricants often contain
paraffins (wax). While modern refining techniques remove most of the wax from most petroleum oil, some wax-like
molecules remain. These wax-like molecules are soluble at ambient temperatures above freezing, but crystallize into a
honeycomb-like structure at lower temperatures and cause oil circulation problems. At startup, this can leave working
parts unprotected for as long as fi ve minutes while the oil warms to a temperature that allows it to fl ow. AMSOIL synthetic
motor oils provide outstanding low-temperature fluidity for fast, dependable winter starts and immediate startup
protection. In addition, their superior synthetic multi-viscosity formulations allow AMSOIL motor oils to provide exceptional
high-temperature protection in hard-working vehicles used in severe service winter applications.
Pour point is an indicator of an oil’s ability to fl ow at cold operating temperatures. It is the lowest temperature at which the
fluid will flow. Pour point depressants keep wax crystals in the oil microscopically small to keep them from joining
together to form the honeycomb-like structure. They lower the temperature at which oil will pour or fl ow and are found in
most motor oils designed for cold-weather use. As synthetic motor oils do not contain those wax crystals, they tend to
offer better cold temperature protection properties. In fact, the following chart comparing AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30 Motor
Oil (ATM) with several competitive products shows that AMSOIL synthetic motor oil remained fluid down to -54°F.
AMSOIL offers several other lower-viscosity motor oils with even lower pour points for maximum cold temperature
performance, including AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Motor Oil (ASL) (-58°F), AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic 0W-30 Motor
Oil (SSO) (-60°F) and AMSOIL 0W-20 Synthetic Motor Oil (ASM) (-65°F). AMSOIL synthetic motor oils help engines turn
over easier and fl ow quickly to engine parts for critical startup protection. Engines start faster and wear is greatly reduced
for extended engine life. AMSOIL motor oils are available in wide viscosity ranges for optimum performance year-round.
The Cold Crank Simulator Test determines the apparent viscosity of lubricants at low temperatures and high shear rates.
Viscosity of lubricants under these conditions is directly related to engine cranking and start-ability. The lower a lubricant’
s cold crank viscosity, the easier an engine will turn over in cold temperatures. The low cold-crank viscosity of AMSOIL
synthetic motor oil reduces drag on moving engine parts and allows engines to achieve critical cranking speed in frigid
temperatures. Engines turn over quickly and dependably in the coldest winter temperatures and motor oil flows to critical
areas requiring immediate lubrication, protecting against wear at startup.
Beyond Motor Oil
AMSOIL Severe Gear lubes face many of the same cold-weather challenges as motor oils do, and the same basic
differences between conventional and synthetic products apply to them as well. Synthetic gear lubes inherently possess
superior cold-weather performance characteristics and more readily provide dependable protection. While engines,
transmissions and cooling systems use heat created by combustion to warm up, gear oils rely on friction to warm up,
which is only generated once the gears begin to move. This initial movement in cold weather is the point at which gears
are most susceptible to damage. As temperature decreases, the viscosity of oil increases. Gear lubricants with high
viscosity at cold temperatures are less efficient, and the gears require more energy to turn. Gears and bearings in the
differential and axle housing are splash-lubricated, and gear lubricants that are too thick at cold temperatures can
channel and starve internal components of lubrication, which can cause failure. AMSOIL Severe Gear Synthetic Gear
Lubes possess excellent cold-fl ow properties, as evidenced in Brookfi eld Viscosity Test results. Extensive testing, the
results of which are available in the AMSOIL A Study of Automotive Gear Lubes White Paper (G2457), and real-world
experience have proven the Severe Gear line’s ability to deliver exceptional performance and protection at extremely low
temperatures.
Fuel Additives That Perform
Diesel applications can be especially sensitive to cold-weather issues. As the temperature drops, the wax naturally found
in diesel fuel begins to form crystals. The point at which wax crystals form is known as the cloud point. These wax
crystals eventually clog the fuel filter and starve the engine of fuel, preventing it from starting. While low-quality fuels may
form wax crystals in temperatures as warm as 40°F, most fuels have a cloud point near 32°F. The point at which the wax
crystals clog the fuel fi lter is known as the cold filter-plugging point (CFPP). AMSOIL Cold Flow Improver (ACF) lowers
the CFPP by as much as 34°F in ultra-lowsulfur diesel fuel (ULSD). AMSOIL also offers Diesel Concentrate Plus Cold
Flow Improver (DFC): a convenient combination of two fuel additives in one bottle. Diesel Concentrate Plus Cold Flow
Improver delivers improved efficiency and cold-temperature performance. While Cold Flow Improver helps prevent diesel
fuel from gelling in cold temperatures, AMSOIL Diesel Recovery (DRC) is an emergency diesel fuel treatment that
dissolves the wax crystals that form when diesel fuel has surpassed its cloud point in applications not treated with Cold
Flow Improver. Diesel Recovery liquefies gelled diesel fuel and thaws frozen fuel filters, avoiding costly towing charges
and getting diesels back on the road.
