When to change oil
AMSOIL answers the question, when to change oil?
Synthetic oils mean fewer oil
changes, long-term savings and convenience.
Deciding when to
change oil can save you money and time with less wear on
parts.
Despite growing evidence that even conventional motor oils perform
past 3,000 miles, and that synthetic motor oils have an even greater service
life, many oil companies still recommend the 3,000-mile oil change as a way
to protect their bottom line. AMSOIL
always has formulated its synthetic motor oils to the highest possible
standard and recommends the oil change intervals because nearly
40 years of experience has shown AMSOIL extended-drain
synthetic motor oils are effective for extended oil change intervals
in normal service.
Many AMSOIL users find the extended-service capabilities of AMSOIL products very attractive and have used AMSOIL products accordingly for many years. Their vehicles and equipment run great and last a long time. In fact, the AMSOIL archives contain records of passenger car engines with extremely high mileage – up to 930,599 miles in which AMSOIL products and extended service intervals were the rule.

these benefits add up to an engine that potentially will last longer and
need fewer repairs. Change your oil and filter today and in 12 months

Extended oil changes do not void warranties. A warranty remains in
force for a period designated by time or mileage, period. If a warranty claim is made during that period, a
member of the dealership service staff or a representative of the manufacturer will examine the affected part and
make a determination as to the cause of malfunction or failure. If the malfunction or failure cannot be directly
attributed to the practice of extended oil drain intervals, then the practice of extending drain intervals cannot
be found responsible for the warranty claim and has no bearing on the claim. To date, the use of AMSOIL products in
extended service use as recommended by AMSOIL has not been an issue. The point is, AMSOIL products are made to last
and the quality engineering that goes into these products proves beneficial whether they are used for conventional
or extended drain intervals. All you need to do is be educated about the safety of extended drain
intervals with AMSOIL products.
AMSOIL has a
documented history of innovation and leadership. In 1972, AMSOIL introduced the first American Petroleum Institute
rated 100% synthetic motor oil for automotive applications. AMS OIL was the first to introduce a concept of
"extended drain intervals" with a recommended 25,000-mile /
12-month drain interval.
AMSOIL lubricant technology has been field tested over
the last 35 years in the most severe driving conditions. Including family fleets, over the road big rigs, towing,
hauling and of course racing. Best Synthetic Motor Oil, Filter, Grease, Diesel Oil. Amsoil Synthetic Motor Oil vs
