Q.
Can I use AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 in my new 4-stroke snowmobile?
A.
Absolutely! AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 was specifically formulated for
use in small, hard working 4-stroke engines. AFF is ideal for
4-cycle snowmobiles, ATV's, personal watercraft, 4-stroke boat
motors, lawn equipment etc...
Q. Can I
use AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 in my car or truck?
A. YES.
AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 can be used in in any gasoline 4-stroke
automobile engine. Recommended change intervals are at 7500
miles, or 6 months. AMSOIL AFF can also be used in diesel
powered cars or trucks, with change intervals as recommended
by your vehicle manufacturer. |
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is specially formulated
for four-stroke recreational motors, including ATVs, outboard motors
and motorcycles. It may also be used in cars and trucks. Its broad
viscosity range makes it excellent for use in both hot and cold
temperature extremes.
Resists High Temperature
Vaporization
Conventional motor oils tend to vaporize and lose weight in high
temperature conditions, contributing to poor oil circulation,
reduction in fuel efficiency and excessive emissions and engine
wear. AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is highly
resistant to evaporation. While conventional petroleum oils thicken
due to evaporation, AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil
maintains its viscosity in high temperature service. The superior
evaporation resistance of AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor
Oil keeps engine wear, oil consumption and emissions to a minimum,
while keeping oil circulation efficient and fuel economy high.
Friction Modifier Free
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil contains no friction
modifiers, making it ideal for ATV, outboard motor and motorcycle
engines. The friction modifier free formulation of AMSOIL 4-Stroke
ensures transmission (manual or automatic) and clutch compatibility
and prevents slip.
Performance Formulated
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil contains a robust
dispersant/detergent package, making it ideal for use in high-stress
four-cycle engines. The dispersant/detergent additive package
effectively suspends harmful combustion by-products and prevents
deposits, keeping AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke clean and serviceable.
High-temperature operations often lead to the thermal degradation
and oxidation of conventional oils, leading to the formation of
deposits, sludge and varnish. The superior oxidative and thermal
stability of AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil inhibits
the formation of varnish, deposits and sludge so equipment runs
clean in high-stress, high temperature operations.
Temperature and Performance
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil has a broad viscosity
range, making it excellent for use in both hot and cold temperature
extremes. As an SAE 40 weight motor oil, AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke
provides superior protection for hot operating, hard working motors,
while its SAE 0W rating ensures easy cranking, excellent cold
weather starting and quick post-startup protection.
Copper Corrosion, Rust and Foam Inhibition
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil protects equipment from
copper corrosion and rust, even during equipment storage. AMSOIL
Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil does not foam in service,
protecting equipment from the metal-to-metal contact and wear that
occurs with use of foam-filled fluids.

Applications and Recommendations
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil may be used in all
applications specifying 0W-40, 5W-30, 10W-30 and 10W-40 viscosity
grades and is recommended for applications specifying the following:
• API SJ, SH, SG, SF, CD, CF
• JASO MA
Use in Yamaha®, Suzuki®, Honda®, Mercury®, Kawasaki®, Arctic Cat®,
Polaris®, Nissan® and Bombardier® motors and transmissions. Safe in
wet or dry sumps. Recommended for manual or automatic clutches.
Compatibility
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is compatible with other
four-stroke fluids. However, a mixture of AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke
Synthetic Motor Oil and another oil may offer a shorter service life
than pure AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil.
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is compatible with and
recommended for use with clutch plates in ATV’s and motorcycle
transmissions.
Installation
Change AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil according to
manufacturer's recommendations, without oil filtration. With oil
filtration (AMSOIL SDF Filter), up to 2 times longer than
manufacturer's recommendations or 6 months, whichever comes first.
If a Hastings or other filter is used, filter should be changed at
manufacturer's recommendations. |
