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 tempera-tures 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.
NEW VEHICLE
UNDER WARRANTY
The use of AMSOIL Synthetic Synthetic
Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil will not void
new vehicle warranties. New vehicle warranties are
based on the use of oils meeting specific API service
classifications and SAE viscosity grades. AMSOIL Synthetic
Heavy-Duty Diesel and Marine Motor Oil meets the current
API and SAE requirements and is perfectly suited for
use in any new vehicle stipulating those requirements
in its owner's manual.
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 recom-mended 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.
