AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic
Motor Oil delivers extraordinary lubrication in all
types of automotive gasoline engines. By combining
industry-premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL
premium additives, Signature Series Synthetic Motor
Oil exceeds the higher performance demands of modern
engines. It withstands the stress of higher
horsepower, higher heat and complicated emissions
control systems. Signature Series Synthetic Motor
Oil is engineered to outperform competitive
conventional and synthetic motor oils. It delivers
long-lasting performance and protection.
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.
Extends Drain Intervals
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil can
extend drain intervals far beyond those recommended
for conventional oils. Its unique synthetic
formulation and long-drain additive system are
inherently stable to resist oxidation and neutralize
acids over longer periods. Signature Series
Synthetic Motor Oil is designed to deliver the best
possible engine protection, cleanliness and
performance over extended drain intervals. It
reduces vehicle maintenance and waste oil disposal
costs.
Maximizes Fuel Economy
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil is
designed to maximize energy efficiency for improved
fuel economy. Unlike conventional oils, its uniform
molecular structure helps it flow more freely and
reduce friction between metal surfaces.
Anti-friction additives are included to further
improve energy efficiency.
Reduces Engine Wear
Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil provides
outstanding anti-wear protection. It has excellent
viscosity film strength to separate metal surfaces
and robust anti-wear additives to further reduce
wear in metal-to-metal contact regions for improved
engine life.
Reduces Oil Consumption
and Emissions
Volatility (burn-off) occurs when oil gets hot,
causing high oil consumption and emissions. AMSOIL
Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil exhibits an
extremely low volatility rate; it controls
volatility-related oil consumption and emissions.
Excels in Extreme
Temperatures
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil resists
thermal (heat) breakdown better than conventional
oils. It is heavily fortified with detergent and
dispersant additives to help prevent sludge deposits
and keep engines clean. And unlike conventional
oils, Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil contains
no wax, staying fluid in the coldest winter
temperatures for easier starting, improved oil flow
and reduced bearing wear.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil is
excellent for use in all types of gasoline-fueled
vehicles. It is recommended for all domestic and
foreign vehicles requiring any of the listed
performance specifications:
0W-20 (ASM):
API SN (Resource Conserving), SM…; ILSAC GF-5,
GF-4…; ACEA A5/B5, A1/B1; GM 6094M; Ford
WSS-M2C945-A, WSS-M2C930-A; Chrysler MS-6395N
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil is
compatible with other conventional and synthetic
motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL motor oils with other
oils, however, will shorten the oil’s 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
synthetic motor oils.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil is
recommended for extended drain intervals in
unmodified(1), mechanically sound(2) gasoline-fueled
vehicles as follows:
• Normal Service(3) – Up to 25,000
miles or one year, whichever comes first.
• Severe Service(4) – Up to 15,000 miles or one
year, whichever comes first.
• In all non-gasoline-fueled vehicle applications,
extend the oil change interval according to oil
analysis or follow the OEM* drain interval.
*OEM – Original Equipment
Manufacturer
(1) Engines operating under
modified conditions (non-stock) are excluded from
extended drain recommendations. Examples include the
use of performance computer chips; non-OEM approved
exhaust, fuel or air induction systems; and the use
of fuels other than those recommended for normal
operation by the manufacturer.
(2) Mechanically sound engines are
in good working condition and do not, for example,
leak or consume excessive amounts of oil, are not
worn out, do not overheat, do not leak antifreeze
and have properly working emissions control systems.
AMSOIL recommends repairing malfunctioning engines
prior to the installation of AMSOIL synthetic oils.
(3) Personal vehicles frequently
traveling greater than 10 miles (16 km) at a time
and not operating under severe service.
(4) Turbo/supercharged engines,
commercial or fleet vehicles, excessive idling,
vehicles with more than 100,000 miles without prior
continuous use of AMSOIL motor oil, daily short-trip
driving less than 10 miles (16 km), frequent towing,
plowing, hauling or dusty condition driving.
AMSOIL Ea® Full-Flow Oil Filters
are designed for extended change intervals. They
stop smaller particles, flow more oil and last
longer than regular filters. For best performance,
use AMSOIL Ea Full-Flow Oil Filters.
