PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Series 3000 5W-30 Synthetic Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil delivers extraordinary lubrication in both diesel
and gasoline engines found in commercial, fleet and personal
vehicles. By combining the industry’s premier synthetic
technology with AMSOIL premium additives, AMSOIL Series 3000
exceeds the higher performance demands of modern engines. It
withstands the stress of higher heat, higher acid levels and
excessive soot-loading found in exhaust gas recirculation (EGR)-equipped
engines. AMSOIL Series 3000 5W-30 Synthetic Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil consistently outperforms conventional and
synthetic diesel oils for 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 Series 3000 Diesel Oil can extend drain intervals far
beyond those recommended for conventional oils. Its unique
synthetic formulation and long-drain additive system deliver
maximum engine protection, cleanliness and performance over
extended drain intervals, reducing vehicle maintenance and
waste oil disposal costs.
Maximizes Fuel Economy
AMSOIL Series 3000 Diesel Oil is energy efficient for
reduced fuel costs. Its low viscosity minimizes “drag”
associated with high-viscosity oils, allowing the engine to
operate more freely, maximizing power and fuel economy.
Maximum Protection Against Engine
Wear
Even under high temperatures and pressures, AMSOIL Series
3000 Diesel Oil’s superior film strength and anti-wear
additives help prevent metal-to-metal contact. AMSOIL Series
3000 reduces ring wear, cylinder bore polishing, oil
consumption and valve train wear for improved engine life
and lower maintenance costs.
Controls Soot Thickening and Wear
AMSOIL Series 3000 Diesel Oil is heavily fortified with
detergent/dispersant additives and is naturally resistant to
soot. It is designed to keep soot particles suspended
independently and prevent them from attaching together to
form larger, wear-causing particles. Viscosity increase is
minimized and soot-related wear is controlled.
Reduces Oil Consumption and
Emissions
AMSOIL Series 3000 Diesel Oil effectively reduces
high-temperature volatility (evaporation), outperforming
conventional oils. Because less oil vapor passes into the
combustion chamber, oil consumption and emissions are
reduced. Additionally, lower volatility helps AMSOIL Series
3000 Diesel Oil retain its viscosity after high-temperature
service for continued dependable protection and excellent
fuel economy.
Excels in Extreme Temperatures
AMSOIL Series 3000 Diesel Oil resists thermal (heat)
breakdown, oxidation and sludge formation better than
conventional oils. And unlike conventional petroleum oils,
AMSOIL Series 3000 contains no wax. It stays fluid down to
-50°C (-58°F) for improved cold-temperature oil flow,
reduced bearing wear and easier starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Series 3000 5W-30 Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is
recommended for diesel engines, gasoline engines and other
applications that require any of the following
specifications:
• API CI-4+, CF, SL • ACEA A3/B3, E2 •
Global DHD-1 • JASO DH-1 • Mack EO-M+, EO-N Premium Plus ’03
• DDC Power Guard 93K214 • Caterpillar ECF-1-a, ECF-2 •
Cummins CES 20071, 20072, 20076, 20077, 20078 • Volvo VDS-2,
VDS-3 • MB 228.1, 228.3, 229.1 • MAN 271/3275 • MTU Type 2
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Series 3000 5W-30 Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel 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. 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 Series 3000 5W-30 Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is
recommended for extended drain intervals in unmodified,
mechanically-sound vehicles or equipment as follows:
Diesel Engine Service
- Three times (3X) OEM* recommendation,
not to exceed 50,000 miles/600 hours or one year,
whichever comes first. Drain intervals may be extended
further with oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
- Normal Service – Up to 25,000 miles
or one year, whichever comes first, or longer based on
oil analysis.
- Severe Service – Up to 15,000 miles
or one year, whichever comes first, or longer based on
oil analysis.
*Operating conditions and drain intervals
for severe and normal service are defined by the OEM. Refer
to your owner’s manual.
Note:
Extended drain intervals are not recommended when using
biofuels containing >10% ethanol or 5% biodiesel (B5).
Follow OEM drain intervals or extend drain intervals with
oil analysis.
