PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AMSOIL Synthetic
Heavy Duty Diesel & Marine Motor Oil (AME) is a premium diesel oil
providing excellent performance in all types of diesel engines where
highly effective control of wear and deposits is vital. Built with
heavy-duty dispersant/detergent additives, its 12 TBN chemistry
neutralizes acids and controls soot thickening from EGR and blow-by
to protect against corrosion, cylinder bore polishing (wear) and
varnish/sludge deposits. AMSOIL AME resists heat and breakdown
better than conventional petroleum oils for 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 AME can extend drain intervals far beyond those recommended
for conventional petroleum oils. Its unique synthetic formulation
and long drain additive system deliver the best possible engine
protection, cleanliness and performance over extended drain
intervals, reducing vehicle maintenance and waste oil disposal
costs.
Advanced
Soot and Wear Control Formula
AMSOIL Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel & Marine Motor Oil is heavily
fortified with detergent/dispersant additives and is naturally
resistant to soot. It keeps soot particles suspended independently,
preventing them from attaching together to form larger, wear-causing
particles. Viscosity increase is minimized and soot related wear is
controlled.
Maximizes Fuel Economy, Reduces Oil Consumption and Emissions
AMSOIL AME has lower volatility (evaporation) than con-ventional
petroleum oils. Because less oil vapor passes into the combustion
chamber, oil consumption and emissions are reduced. Lower volatility
helps AMSOIL AME retain its viscosity after high temperature service
for excellent fuel economy and continued dependable protection.
Excellent Cold Flow Properties
AMSOIL AME remains fluid down to -44°F. It eases cold weather
starting and provides vital start-up lubrication to prevent engine
wear. AME outperforms conventional 15W-40 petroleum oils and greatly
minimizes the impact of cold weather operation.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AMSOIL Series 3000 100%
Synthetic 5W-30 Diesel Oil (HDD)
delivers extraordinary lubrication
in both diesel and gasoline engines
found in commercial, fleet and
personal vehicles. By combining the
industry’s premier synthetic
technology with AMSOIL premium
additives, AMSOIL HDD exceeds the
higher performance demands of modern
engines. It withstands the stress of
higher heat, higher acid levels and
excessive soot loading found in EGR
equipped engines. AMSOIL Series 3000
Synthetic 5W-30 Diesel Oil
consistently outperforms
conventional and synthetic diesel
oils for 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 HDD can extend drain
intervals far beyond those
recommended for conventional oils.
Its unique synthetic formulation and
long drain additive system deliver
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 Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil is energy efficient for
reduced fuel costs. Its low
viscosity minimizes “drag”
associated with high viscosity oils,
allowing the engine to operate more
freely, maximizing power and fuel
economy.
Unsurpassed Protection
Against Engine Wear
In the Four-Ball Wear Test (ASTM
D-4172B) AMSOIL HDD demonstrated
better anti-wear performance than
competitive petroleum and synthetic
oils. Even under high temperatures
and pressures, its superior film
strength and anti-wear additives
help prevent metal-to-metal contact.
AMSOIL HDD reduces ring wear,
cylinder bore polishing, oil
consumption and valve train wear for
improved engine life and lower
maintenance costs.
Controls Soot Thickening
and Wear
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil is heavily fortified with
detergent/dispersant additives and
is naturally resistant to soot. It
keeps soot particles suspended
independently, preventing them from
attaching together to form larger,
wear-causing particles. Viscosity
increase is minimized and soot
related wear is controlled.
Reduces Oil Consumption
and Emissions
AMSOIL HDD loses only 6.7% of its
mass to high temperature volatility
(evaporation) in the NOACK test,
outperforming all conventional oils.
Because less oil vapor passes into
the combustion chamber, oil
consumption and emissions are
reduced. Additionally, lower
volatility helps AMSOIL HDD retain
its viscosity after high temperature
service for continued dependable
protection and excellent fuel
economy.
Excels in Extreme
Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil resists thermal (heat)
breakdown, oxidation and sludge
formation better than conventional
oils. And unlike conventional
petroleum oils, AMSOIL HDD contains
no wax. It stays fluid down to -60°F
for improved cold temperature oil
flow, reduced bearing wear and
easier starting.

Reduces Oil Consumption and
Emissions
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil has lower volatility (burn-off) than
conventional petroleum oils. Because less oil vapor passes into the

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.

engines.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Diesel Oil (DME)
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 Premium Synthetic 15W-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, 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 15W-40 Diesel Oil is a low-sulfated ash formulation
that provides excellent performance in low-emission diesel engines. It
is compatible with all exhaust treatment devices and is designed to
extend the service life of diesel particulate filters (DPF).
Extended Drain Performance
AMSOIL Premium 15W-40 Diesel Oil can extend drain intervals far beyond
those recommended for conventional petroleum oils. Its unique synthetic
formulation and longdrain additive system (10.4 TBN) deliver superior
engine protection, cleanliness and performance over extended drain
intervals. AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Diesel Oil provides
maximum protection for up to 3X the OEM-recommended drain interval, and
further with oil analysis.
Controls Soot-Thickening
and Wear
The advanced synthetic base oils in AMSOIL 15W-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.
Superior Shear Stability,
Reduced Oil Consumption
AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Diesel Oil has lower volatility (burn-off) than
conventional petroleum oils. Because less oil vapor passes into the
combustion chamber, oil consumption and emissions are reduced. Lower
volatility helps AMSOIL Premium Diesel Oil retain its viscosity after
high-temperature service for continued dependable protection.
Ideal for Fleets
AMSOIL Premium 15W-40 Diesel Oil reduces operating costs through
extended drain intervals. It is engineered for a wide range of
applications, allowing fleet operators to consolidate engine oil
inventories in mixed fleets. In addition, it reduces downtime through
extended drain intervals and improved equipment protection.

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 Premium CJ-4 Synthetic 15W-40 Diesel Oil is recommended for
extended drain intervals in engines that are unmodified and in good
operating condition.
Diesel Engine Service
• Three times (3X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed 50,000 miles/600
hours or one year, whichever comes first. Drain intervals may be
extended further with oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
• Two times (2X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed 15,000 miles or one
year, whichever comes first.
*Operating conditions and drain
intervals for severe and normal service are defined by the OEM. Refer to
your owner’s manual.
Note: Extended drain intervals are
not recommended when using biofuels containing >10% ethanol or 5%
biodiesel (B5). Follow OEM drain intervals or extend drain intervals
with oil analysis.

"How to Reduce or
Prevent Turbocharger Bearing Seizures"
One of the many specific areas, on turbocharged engines, that can
clearly benefit from the use of synthetic oil is the turbocharger. When a
turbocharged engine is shut off immediately after use, "heat soak" occurs due to
the extremely high temperature still present in the turbocharger. Over a period
of time this can lead to deposits that can reduce or block the oil flow to the
turbocharger bearings which can lead to turbocharger bearing seizure.
AMSOIL's Synthetic Diesel Oils are inherently more thermally stable than many
diesel oils on the market and have been shown to keep turbochargers considerably
cleaner than other brands of oil. While poor quality engine oils have been shown
to cause turbocharger bearing seizure in under 100 hours during a "heat soak"
test.
Many diesel engine oils will survive the 100 hour "heat soak" test, but..., with
considerable deposits and incipient oil passage blocking. If you use low quality
diesel oils make sure you let the engine idle for a few minutes after use to
allow the engine and turbocharger to cool. This does not eliminate deposit
formation but it can reduce it.
Take a look at the varnish deposits in this picture. These are the results of a
severe high temperature deposit test. The one at the far right is AMSOIL
Synthetic 15W-40 Diesel oil and the others are major brand petroleum diesel
oils. (left to right: Chevron Delo 400, Cummins Premium Blue, Shell Rotella T,
AMSOIL (15W-40). The test clearly shows that AMSOIL diesel oil keeps engines cleaner longer
than other major brand diesel oils do. Which oil would you rather have
protecting your engine?
Amsoil Synthetic Diesel Oil Proven to Prevent Turbocharger Bearing Seizure
One of the many specific areas on a diesel turbocharged engine, such as the Powerstroke,
Duramax, and Cummins
Diesel which can clearly benefit from the use of synthetic motor oil is the
turbocharger. When a diesel turbocharged engine is shut off immediately after a high
speed run, "heat soak" occurs from the engine, and it considerably increases the
temperature in the turbocharger. Over a period of time this can lead to
deposits that can block the oil flow to the turbocharger bearings, leading to
turbocharger seizure. Synthetic diesel engine oils that are inherently more thermally
stable than petroleum engine oils have been shown to keep turbochargers
considerably cleaner than petroleum engine oils. A poor petroleum diesel oil will give
turbocharger seizure, caused by blocked oilways, in under 100 hours of a severe
"heat soak" test cycle. A good diesel petroleum oil will survive for 100 hours but
with considerable deposits and incipient blocking. A good synthetic oil will
maintain the turbocharger in almost "as fitted" condition.
