PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION AMSOIL Synthetic Blend 15W-40 Heavy
Duty Motor Oil (PCO) features a dual-base of premium synthetic
and hydro-processed base oils in formulation with proven high
quality anti-wear additives. This multi-use oil is designed for
both heavy-duty diesel engines (including modern EGR units) and
gasoline engines, combining versatility and heavy-duty engine
protection into one cost effective motor oil. It is formulated
with high levels of dispersant and detergent additives that
effectively control acids and soot thickening to prevent
corrosion, wear and deposits. AMSOIL Synthetic Blend 15W-40
Heavy Duty Motor Oil is excellent for all season use in on- or
off-road applications.
Maximizes Fuel Economy, Minimizes Oil Consumption and
Emissions
The synthetic base oil component in AMSOIL PCO reduces oil
volatility (burn-off). Less make-up oil is required to replace
volatilized oil and less oil vapor gets into the exhaust
stream. Oil viscosity increase is controlled, which minimizes
drag for better efficiency.
Improved Extreme Temperature Performance
Unlike other semi-synthetic oils, AMSOIL PCO contains a high
content of quality synthetic oils for enhanced performance.
Heat and oxidation resistance are improved for clean engine
operation and long lasting engine oil service life. Dependable
cold-temperature flow is assured for easier start-up and
improved post start-up protection.

MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL PCO 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 Synthetic Blend
15W-40 Heavy Duty Motor Oil is recommended for use according to
the longest service interval established by the engine, vehicle
or equipment manufacturer. Drain intervals may be extended
based on oil analysis.
AMSOIL Ea™ full flow and
Donaldson Endurance™ oil filters are designed for extended
drain intervals. They capture more wear-causing particles, have
less restriction and last longer than regular filters. For best
performance, use AMSOIL Ea full-flow or Donaldson Endurance oil
filters.
HEALTH & SAFETY This product is
not expected to cause health concerns when used for the
intended application and according to the recommendations in
the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). An MSDS is available
upon request at 715- 392-7101 or via the Internet on the AMSOIL website. Keep Out of Reach
of Children. Don't pollute. Return used oil to collection
centers.
