PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil is specially formulated
to provide superior protection and performance in a wide variety of demanding
applications. By incorporating high quality synthetic base stocks and additives, AMSOIL
Premium Protection Oil exceeds the needs of large and small gasoline or diesel engines
in cars, motorcycles, trucks, motor homes, maintenance equipment, heavy equipment,
street rods and marine applications. It is ideal for high mileage vehicles with
flat-tappet cams and high-stress vehicles subject to hot temperatures, heavy hauling,
trailer pulling or off road use. AMSOIL Premium Protection Oil resists oxidation,
neutralizes acids, inhibits corrosion, reduces wear and protects against deposits. It
provides the extra anti-wear protection required by engines with flat-tappet cams and
high-tension valve springs. AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil offers
flexibility and performance beyond conventional oils for convenience and trouble free
operation.
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.
Provides Superior Wear
Protection
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil is a high viscosity oil engineered
to protect against metal-to-metal contact. It resists viscosity shear and is formulated
with a heavy treatment of zinc and other anti-wear additives for excellent protection
of gears, bearings, cam lobes and other high-pressure components in engines and
transmissions. AMSOIL Premium Protection Synthetic Motor Oil helps extend engine
life.
Exceeds the Requirements of Wet Clutch
Transmissions
AMSOIL Premium Protection Synthetic Motor Oil contains no friction modifiers, making it
ideal for motorcycles, maintenance equipment and other wet clutch transmission
applications. Formulated to prevent clutch glazing and slippage, it insures smooth
clutch engagement and long term, dependable transmission operation.
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Motor Oil reduces clutch wear for
extended transmission life.
Resists Oxidation and High Temperature
Breakdown
AMSOIL Premium Protection Synthetic Motor Oil overcomes the thermal deficiencies common
to conventional petroleum oils. Volatilization (burn-off), oxidation and excessive
deposit formation from high heat are greatly reduced. Viscosity thickening is
controlled and engines run clean, promoting cooler operation and long engine life in
air or liquid cooled engines.
Extends Drain Intervals in Gasoline and
Diesel Engines
The superior AMSOIL synthetic base stock and additive technology exceeds the
requirements of both gasoline and diesel engines. AMSOIL Premium Protection Motor Oil
neutralizes acids, disperses soot and lasts longer in service than conventional
oils.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil is a multi-use, premium
synthetic lubricant for applications that require or benefit from a higher viscosity
oil. It is recommended for air and liquid cooled, large or small gasoline and diesel
engines, transmissions and chaincase applications where 10W-40 oil is required with any
of the following specifications:
- API SL/CF, CI-4 Plus
- API SJ, SH, SG...
- ISO-L-EMA
- JASO MA (Motorcycle)
- Cummins 20071, 20072, 20076, 20077
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil 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 Synthetic Oils.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil is recommended for
extended intervals in unmodified, mechanically-sound vehicles or equipment as
follows:
Diesel Engine Service
•Normal Service - Up to 25,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or longer
based on oil analysis.
•Severe Service - Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or longer
based on oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
•Normal Service - Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or longer
based on oil analysis.
•Severe Service - Up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, or longer
based on oil analysis.
Motorcycles, Small Engines, Stationary
Engines, Heavy Equipment and Other Applications
•Extend drain intervals based on oil analysis or follow the manufacturer-recommended
drain interval.
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 Ea™ Full-Flow Oil Filters and
replace at the time of oil change. Other oil filters should be changed at standard OEM*
intervals.
