PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION AMSOIL 100% Synthetic 5W-30
Motor Oil (ASL) delivers extraordinary lubrication in all types
of automotive gasoline engines. By combining the industry
premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL premium additives,
AMSOIL ASL exceeds the higher performance demands of modern
engines. It withstands the stress of higher horsepower, higher
heat and complicated emission control systems. AMSOIL Synthetic
5W-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 engine.
Extends Drain
Intervals AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-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 ASL 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 5W-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 5W-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 5W-30 Motor Oil has the lowest evaporation
rate of the oils tested, making it the best at controlling
evaporationrelated oil consumption and emissions (see chart
below).
Excels in Extreme
Temperatures AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-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 ASL contains no wax. It
stays fluid down to -60°F for improved cold temperature oil
flow, reduced bearing wear and easier starting (see chart
below).

APPLICATIONS AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-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 A5/B5
- JASO VTW
- GM 4718M, 6094M
- Ford WSS M2C929-A
- Daimler Chrysler MS-6395N
- VW 503.00
MIXING
AMSOIL AMSOIL ASL 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 5W-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.
- Replace AMSOIL Ea oil filter at 25,000 miles or 1 year,
whichever comes first (other brands at standard OEM*
intervals).
- Severe Service(4) – Up to 15,000 miles or one year,
whichever comes first.
- Replace AMSOIL Ea oil filter at 15,000 miles or six
months, 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) Where the engine or operating conditions have been
modified from the original manufacturers’ design, drain oil at
the owner’s discretion or extend based on oil analysis.
Examples include the use of performance computer chips;
modified 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) Non-turbo/non-supercharged personal transportation
vehicles frequently traveling greater than 10 miles at a time
and not operating under severe service.
(4) Turbo/supercharged vehicles, commercial or fleet
vehicles, extensive engine idling, first use and subsequent use
of AMSOIL engine oil in vehicles with 100,000 miles or greater,
daily short trip driving (less than 10 miles), frequent towing,
plowing or hauling heavy loads and frequent driving in dusty
conditions.
AMSOIL Absolute Efficiency (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.
