PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Natural Gas Engine Oil is chemically formulated to
deliver unsurpassed protection for natural gas engines. AMSOIL Natural Gas
Engine Oil has a low-ash formula with highly effective rust and corrosion
inhibitors. It circulates quickly to critical engine components for fast,
easy cold-weather engine start-ups and has a very low volatility to remain
stable in hot engine conditions. AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil will not
break down like petroleum oils because it resists the effects of high
temperature oxidation much longer than petroleum oils do.
Inhibits Rust
and Corrosion
Natural gas engines are unique in that they must often operate
in locations where service is infrequent. Many natural gas engines undergo
long periods of inactivity. The rust and corrosion inhibitors in AMSOIL
Natural Gas Engine Oil provide protection during periods when the engine
is not running or running intermittently.
Improves Spark
Plug Reliability
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil is an extremely low-ash oil,
which greatly reduces spark plug fouling and post plugging in two-cycle
natural gas engines and virtually eliminates ring belt deposits in
four-cycle natural gas engines. In some four-cycle applications, port
cleanings have been reduced four-fold.
Maintains
Viscosity
Due to its synthetic formulation, AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil
is a true SAE 40 oil, yet it passes SAE 20W viscosity specifications for
low temperature performance without the use of special additives.
Resists
Oxidation and Thermal Breakdown
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil resists the damaging effects of
heat, blowby chemicals and oxidation up to ten times longer than do
petroleum oils. AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil neutralizes sludge and acid
formation to provide engines with long-lasting performance and
reliability.
Performs in Cold
Weather
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil remains fluid in extremely cold
temperatures. It resists the low temperature congealing that often occurs
in petroleum oils. AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil ensures instant
start-ups, fast oil circulation and ideal protection under frigid
conditions.
Extended Drain
Intervals
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil affords exceptional extended
drain intervals when monitored by an oil analysis program. Periodic oil
analysis should be conducted at the engine manufacturer’s recommended
drain intervals. Change the oil filter at the recommended engine
manufacturer’s drain intervals.
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL Synthetic Natural Gas Engine Oil is compatible with
conventional petroleum oils and other synthetic lubricants; however,
mixing AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil with a petroleum oil will reduce the
drain interval of the AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil. Engine oil additives
or after-market products are not recommended for use with AMSOIL Natural
Gas Engine Oil.
Note:
AMSOIL Synthetic Natural Gas Engine Oil should not be used in automotive
engines that have been modified to use propane or natural gas.
