PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke® Small Engine Oil (ASE) is a
robust formulation designed for hot temperature, severe
service operation of small engines where routine
maintenance is often difficult or infrequent. It is
formulated with premium synthetic base oils that exceed
both 10W-30 multi-grade and SAE 30 straight-grade
viscosity requirements. Unlike conventional SAE 30 motor
oils, AMSOIL ASE has a naturally high viscosity index
and does not contain paraffin (wax). It has a -38°F pour
point and qualifies for SAE 10W, making it an "all
season," multi-grade lubricant with a wide operating
temperature range. As an SAE 30 weight motor oil, AMSOIL
ASE provides outstanding protection for hot operating
engines. Formula 4-Stroke® Small Engine Oil is a
commercial grade lubricant that helps improve
productivity and reduce maintenance costs through
superior engine protection.
Resists Heat and Reduces Oil
Consumption
AMSOIL engineered Formula 4-Stroke® Small Engine Oil to
withstand the high temperatures of hard working engines.
It effectively resists oxidation and oil vaporization to
control oil thickening and reduce
oil consumption. AMSOIL ASE lasts longer in service than
conventional oils and keeps engines clean for peak
operating efficiency.
Excellent
For Transmission Systems
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke® Small Engine Oil is a shear
stable formulation that contains no friction modifiers.
It will not break down during rigorous mechanical
activity, making it ideal for hydraulic or hydrostatic
systems and chain cases. It is wet clutch compatible and
designed to prevent clutch slippage in commercial or
recreational transmissions. AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke®
Small Engine Oil protects gears and bearings during
high-demand, commercial duty service.
Superior
Protection
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke® Small Engine Oil is formulated
with high levels of premium anti-wear and detergent
additive technology. It provides severe service
protection of pistons, bearings and gears and
effectively neutralizes acids from combustion
by-products prone to small engines. Anti-rust additives
further protect equipment during storage or infrequent
use.
Applications and
Recommendations

Mixing AMSOIL
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke® Small Engine Oil 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. Aftermarket oil additives are
not recommended for use with
AMSOIL motor oils.
Service Life
Follow the equipment manufacturer’s recommended
drain intervals.
