PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 (DEO) is the premium choice for API CJ-4
emission quality diesel oil required by model year 2007 and
newer diesel engines. It delivers extraordinary lubrication in
diesel engines found in commercial, fleet and personal vehicles.
Built with the latest additive and synthetic base oil
technology, AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil exceeds the higher
performance demands of modern engines. It withstands the stress
of heat, soot and acids to help prevent deposits, corrosion and
wear. AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40, with its broad viscosity range, is
ideal for winter and summer use. It resists breakdown and can
extend drain intervals when monitored by oil analysis.
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.
Exceeds Emission
System Requirements
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil is a low sulfated ash
formulation that exceeds the modern requirements for low
emission quality diesel oil. It is compatible with all exhaust
treatment devices and is designed to extend the service life of
particulate filters.
Controls Soot
Thickening and Wear
The advanced synthetic base oils in AMSOIL 5W-40 Diesel Oil are
naturally resistant to soot contamination. That, along with a
heavy fortification of detergent/dispersant additives, keeps
soot particles suspended independently, helping prevent the
formation of larger wear causing particles. Viscosity increase
is minimized and soot related wear is controlled.
Maximizes Fuel
Economy and Reduces Oil Consumption
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Premium Diesel Oil has a very low high
temperature volatility rate (burn off). Because less oil vapor
passes into the combustion chamber, oil consumption and
emissions are reduced. Additionally, lower volatility helps
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 retain its viscosity after high
temperature service for continued dependable protection and
excellent fuel economy.
Excels in Extreme
Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Premium Diesel Oil resists thermal (heat)
breakdown, oxidation and sludge formation better than
conventional petroleum oils. And unlike conventional oils,
AMSOIL 5W-40 contains no wax. It stays fluid in cold
temperatures for improved oil flow, reduced bearing wear and
easier starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Premium Diesel Oil replaces 5W-40, 10W-40
and 15W-40 viscosity oils. It is “backwards compatible” with
pre-2007 diesel engines and recommended for newer and older
diesel and gasoline engines and other applications requiring the
following worldwide specifications:
• API CJ-4, CI-4+,
CH-4, CF
• API SM, SL, SJ...
• ACEA E7
• Mack EO-O Premium Plus
• DDC Power Guard 93K218
• Caterpillar ECF-3, ECF-1
• Cummins CES 20081
• Volvo VDS-4
• MB 228.3
• MTU Type II
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 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-40 Premium Diesel Oil is recommended for use
according to the longest service interval established by the
engine, vehicle or equipment manufacturer. Drain intervals may
be extended when monitored by oil analysis.
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.
