PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil
(ATM) delivers extraordinary
lubrication in all types of automotive
gasoline engines. By combining the
industry premier synthetic technology
with AMSOIL premium additives, AMSOIL
ATM exceeds the higher performance
demands of modern engines. It
withstands the stress of higher
horsepower, higher heat and complicated
emission control systems. AMSOIL
Synthetic 10W-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
vehicle.
Extends Drain
Intervals
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-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 ATM 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 10W-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 10W-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 10W-30 Motor Oil has the
lowest evaporation rate of the oils
tested, making it the best at
controlling evaporation-related oil
consumption and emissions (see
chart).
Excels in
Extreme Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-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 ATM contains
no wax. It stays fluid down to -58°F
for improved cold temperature oil flow,
reduced bearing wear and easier
starting (see chart).
APPLICATIONS:
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-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 A1/B1,
A5/B5
- JASO

MIXING
AMSOIL AMSOIL ATM is
compatible with conventional and
syntheticmotor 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 10W-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.
• Severe
Service(4) – Up to 15,000 miles
or one year, whichever comes
first.
• Replace
AMSOIL Ea full-flow oil filter
at the time of oil change up to
25,000 miles or one year
service life, 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) Engines
operating under modified
conditions are excluded from
extended drain recommendations.
Examples include the use of
performance computer chips;
non-OEM approved 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) Personal
transportation vehicles
frequently traveling greater
than 10 miles (16 km) at a time
and not operating under severe
service.
(4)
Turbo/supercharged vehicles,
commercial or fleet vehicles,
excessive engine idling, use of
AMSOIL engine oil in vehicles
with over 100,000 miles without
prior regular use of AMSOIL
engine oil, daily short trip
driving (less than 10 miles),
frequent towing, plowing,
hauling or dusty-condition
driving.
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.
