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.
Health & Safety
