PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil (DEO) 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 5W-40
Diesel Oil exceeds the higher performance
demands of modern engines. It withstands the
stress of heat, soot and acids to help prevent
deposits, wear and corrosion. AMSOIL Synthetic
5W-40 is wax-free with a broad viscosity range
to provide exceptional cold-weather starting
and high temperature protection. It resists
breakdown and offers maximum fuel efficiency
over extended drain intervals.
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 5W-40 Diesel Oil is a
low-sulfated ash formulation that exceeds the
requirements for low-emission quality diesel
oil. It is compatible with all exhaust
treatment devices and is designed to extend the
service life of diesel particulate fi lters
(DPF).
Extended Drain
Performance
AMSOIL Premium 5W-40 Diesel Oil can extend
drain intervals far beyond those recommended
for conventional petroleum oils. Its unique
synthetic formulation and long-drain additive
system (10.4 TBN) deliver superior engine
protection, cleanliness and performance over
extended drain intervals. AMSOIL Synthetic
5W-40 Diesel Oil provides
maximum protection for up to 3X the
OEM-recommended drain interval, and further
with oil analysis.
Improves Fuel
Economy
The advanced synthetic technology used to
engineer AMSOIL Premium 5W-40 Diesel Oil
enhances viscosity properties and is proven to
deliver better fuel economy. In fact, the
Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Federal
Test Procedure confirms that AMSOIL 5W-40
Diesel Oil provides up to 3 percent better fuel
economy than conventional 15W-40 diesel
oils.

making AMSOIL even more cost effective.
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 combustion chamber, oil consumption
and emissions are reduced. Lower volatility
helps AMSOIL Premium Diesel Oil retain its
viscosity after high-temperature service for
dependable protection and excellent fuel
economy.
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.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Premium CJ-4 Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil
is recommended for diesel engines and, where
appropriate, gasoline engines requiring any of
the following specifications:
• SAE 5W-40 • API CJ-4,
CI-4+, CF, SM
• ACEA E7, E9 • Mack EO-O Premium Plus
• DDC Power Guard 93K218
• Caterpillar ECF-3, ECF-2 • Cummins
20081
• Volvo VDS-4 • MB 228.31 • MTU Type I
& II
• MAN 3275 • JASO DH-2 • Global DHD-1
• Renault RLD-3
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel 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 motor oils.
SERVICE
LIFE
AMSOIL Premium API CJ-4 Synthetic 5W-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.
