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. AMSOIL
Premium Protection Oil resists oxidation, neutralizes
acids, inhibits corrosion, reduces wear and protects
against deposits. It is ideal for high mileage vehicles
and high-stress vehicles subject to hot temperatures,
heavy hauling, trailer pulling or off road use. AMSOIL
Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil provides
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

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 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...
- MIL-PRF-2104G
- JASO MA
(Motorcycle)
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 use up to 15,000 miles or one year,
whichever comes first, in unmodified(1), mechanically
sound(
2)
automotive gasoline or diesel engines. In
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.
*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 manufacturer.
(2) Mechanically sound engines are in
good working condition and do not, for example, leak
oil or consume excessive amounts, are not worn out,
do not overheat, do not leak anti-freeze and have
properly working emission control systems. AMSOIL
recommends repairing malfunctioning engines prior to
the installation of AMSOIL synthetic oils.
