PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil delivers extraordinary lubrication in all types of automotive gasoline engines. By combining industry-premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL premium additives, Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil exceeds the higher performance demands of modern engines. It withstands the stress of higher horsepower, higher heat and complicated emissions control systems. Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil is engineered to outperform competitive conventional and synthetic motor oils. It delivers long-lasting performance and protection.
Extends Drain Intervals
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil can extend drain intervals far beyond those recommended for conventional oils. Its unique synthetic formulation and long-drain additive system are inherently stable to resist oxidation and neutralize acids over longer periods. Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil is designed to deliver the best possible engine protection, cleanliness and performance over extended drain intervals. It reduces vehicle maintenance and waste oil disposal costs.
Maximizes Fuel
Economy
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic 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
Signature Series Synthetic 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
Volatility (burn-off) occurs when oil gets hot, causing high oil consumption and emissions. AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil exhibits an extremely low volatility rate; it controls volatility-related oil consumption and emissions.
Excels in Extreme Temperatures
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil resists thermal (heat) breakdown better than conventional oils. It is heavily fortified with detergent and dispersant additives to help prevent sludge deposits and keep engines clean. And unlike conventional oils, Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil contains no wax, staying fluid in the coldest winter temperatures for easier starting, improved oil flow and reduced bearing wear.
Applications
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil is excellent for use in all types of gasoline-fueled vehicles. It is recommended for all domestic and foreign vehicles requiring any of the listed performance specifications:
• API SN (Resource Conserving), SM …
• ILSAC GF-5, GF-4 …
• ACEA A5/B5, A1/B1
• GM 6094M
• Ford WSS-M2C945-A, WSS-M2C930-A
• Chrysler MS-6395N
Mixing AMSOIL
AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 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 Signature Series Synthetic 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 oil filter at the time of oil change
up to 25,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first
(other brands at standard OEM intervals).
(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.
(3) Personal vehicles frequently traveling greater than 10 miles (16km)
at a time and not operating under severe service.
(4) Turbo or supercharged vehicles, commercial or fleet vehicles,
extensive engine idling, first and subsequent use of AMSOIL in vehicles
with over 100,000 miles, daily short trip driving less than 10 miles (16km), 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 Ea full-flow oil filters.
