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

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.
