PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Series 3000 100% Synthetic 5W-30 Diesel Oil
(HDD) delivers extraordinary lubrication in both diesel and
gasoline engines found in commercial, fleet and personal
vehicles. By combining the industry’s premier synthetic
technology with AMSOIL premium additives, AMSOIL HDD
exceeds the higher performance demands of modern
engines. It withstands the stress of higher heat, higher acid
levels and excessive soot loading found in EGR-equipped
engines. AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Diesel Oil
consistently outperforms conventional and synthetic diesel
oils for 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 HDD can extend drain intervals far beyond those
recommended for conventional oils. Its unique synthetic
formulation and long drain additive system deliver 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 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is energy
efficient for reduced fuel costs. Its low viscosity minimizes “drag” associated with high viscosity oils, allowing
the engine to operate more freely, maximizing power and
fuel economy.
Unsurpassed Protection Against
Engine Wear
In the Four-Ball Wear Test (ASTM D-4172B) AMSOIL HDD
demonstrated better anti-wear performance than competitive
petroleum and synthetic oils. Even under high
temperatures and pressures,
its superior film strength and
anti-wear additives help prevent
metal-to-metal contact. AMSOIL HDD reduces ring
wear, cylinder bore polishing,
oil consumption and
valve train wear for improved engine life and lower maintenance
costs.
Controls Soot Thickening and Wear
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is heavily
fortified with detergent/dispersant additives and is naturally
resistant to soot. It keeps soot particles suspended
independently, preventing them from attaching together to
form larger, wear-causing particles. Viscosity increase is
minimized and soot related wear is controlled.
Reduces Oil Consumption
and Emissions
AMSOIL HDD loses only 7.6% of its mass to high temperature
volatility (evaporation) in the NOACK test, outperforming
all conventional oils. Because less oil vapor
passes into the combustion chamber, oil consumption
and emissions are reduced. Additionally, lower volatility
helps AMSOIL HDD retain its viscosity after high temperature
service for continued dependable protection and
excellent fuel economy.
Excels in Extreme Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil resists
thermal (heat) breakdown, oxidation and sludge formation
better than conventional oils. And unlike conventional
petroleum oils, AMSOIL HDD contains no wax. It stays fluid
down to -50°C (-58°F) for improved cold temperature oil flow,
reduced bearing wear and easier starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is recommended
for diesel engines and other applications requiring
any of the listed worldwide specifications and gasoline
engines requiring API SL, SJ, SH, ACEA A3.
• API CI-4+, CF, CF-2, SL • ACEA A3/B3, E2, E3, E5 • Global DHD-1 • JASO DH-1 • Mack EO-M+, EO-N Premium Plus ’03 • DDC Power Guard
93K214 • Caterpillar ECF-1-a, ECF-2 • Cummins CES 20071, 20072, 20076,
20077, 20078 • Volvo VDS-2, VDS-3 • MB 228.1, 228.3, 229.1 • MAN 271/3275 • MTU Type 2
AMSOIL HDD 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 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is recommended
for extended drain intervals in unmodified(1), mechanically
sound(2) vehicles or equipment as follows:
Diesel Engine Service
• Normal Service — Up to 25,000 miles or one year,
whichever comes first, or longer based on oil analysis.
• Severe Service — Up to 15,000 miles or one year,
whichever comes first, or longer based on oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
• In gasoline engines, oil drain intervals may be extended
up to two times (2X) the OEM recommended drain interval
(not to exceed 15,000 miles without oil analysis) or
one year, whichever comes first.
AMSOIL Ea™ and Donaldson Endurance™ full flow oil filters
are designed for extended drain intervals. They stop smaller
particles, have less restriction and last longer than regular filters.
For best performance, use AMSOIL Ea or Donaldson
Endurance oil filters.
AMSOIL Ea By-pass oil filters are specialized for the removal of
small, wear-causing dirt particles, thereby extending engine
life. AMSOIL encourages using an AMSOIL Ea By-pass filter
system for maximum engine and oil life.
