AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants Proven
Best!
Duramax Diesel Owners
AMSOIL offers
superior lubrication technology for your Duramax Diesel engine. Learn what
many manufacturers and servicing dealerships don't want you to know about
AMSOIL synthetic motor oil from experienced Truck Engineers and Lubrication
Specialists right here in the auto and truck engineering and manufacturing
capital of the world- Detroit, Michigan.
We are diesel
engine, powertrain and chassis experts and are here to help you achieve
optimum performance and longevity from your truck.
You've spent your hard earned money on the Duramax Diesel option in one of
the most popular and well engineered trucks there is, now don't you think
you owe it to yourself to use the very best oil in it? And don't let your
local dealership service center tell you that you you have to use their
brand of oil to "maintain your warranty". That is one of the biggest
untruths we have heard yet it goes on day in and day out. We constantly
receive calls from customers that were told this by their servicing
dealership. This practice is not authorized or condoned by the auto
manufacturers, but the fact is it still goes on.
How a servicing dealership can essentially tell a customer that they have to
use a lower quality oil to "maintain their
warranty" is not only wrong but it is also illegal unless they
provide it free of charge. There are Federal laws that protect you against
this. Please read our Warranty Laws You Need to Know section of this website
to learn more.
For the Duramax Diesel, AMSOIL engineers and manufactures a fuel efficient
5W-30 Synthetic Heavy Duty Diesel Oil and a 15W-40 Synthetic Heavy Duty
Diesel Oil that when used in conjunction with the AMSOIL Super Duty engine
oil filters will allow you to travel 7,500-10,000 miles between filter
changes and 20,000 miles minimum between oil changes. This was established
by oil analysis testing. If you use oil analysis you can usually go longer
than 20,000 miles. Other AMSOIL benefits include reduced sludge and deposit
formation, extreme temperature protection, improved fuel efficiency and rust
and corrosion prevention and it does not void any new vehicle warranty.
AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants meet and exceed all API rated and GM
Specifications
The other option is to install an AMSOIL Dual Remote By-Pass Filtration
System. With this system you only change your oil when oil analysis
indicates. The regular full flow filter is changed at 7,500-10,000 mile
intervals and the by-pass filter is changed at a minimum of 25,000 miles (or
longer with oil analysis). The AMSOIL 15W-40 Synthetic Heavy Duty Oil does
not break down like conventional petroleum based motor oils, is much more
shear stable and does not have the waxes, paraffins and by-products that
come out of crude oil that is pumped from the earth.
The by-pass filter removes the particles that cause wear in your engine down
to less than one micron (a micron equals 0.001 mm) and keeps the engine oil
analytically clean so you do not need to change your oil for a long time,
while still getting far better protection than someone that changes their
oil every 3000 miles. We are experienced at installing these units on
Duramax Diesels and can provide you with exact installation instructions,
tips, bracket prints and photographs of previous installations.
One of the Power Stroke Diesels in our dealer group
has over 84,000 miles on the same oil as of November 2003.
Laboratory oil chemical analysis every 15-20,000 miles indicates the oil is
perfectly suitable for continued service. Other customers have traveled well
over 100,000 miles and oil analysis still indicates no oil change necessary.
We will mail you a copy of this vehicle's oil analysis results with your
product and technical information package so you can see the data for
yourself. In addition, the AMSOIL By-Pass filter will also remove up to a
pint of water from your vehicle's lubrication system, which is especially
important in a diesel engine. Without this the water promotes rust,
corrosion and rapid wear. Internal engine heat also creates acids which also
wear the engine components. The water and acids build and continue to work
destroying your engine even after engine shutdown.
Oil analysis provides a big return for your small investment by extending
equipment life by preventing premature component failure, reducing
maintenance costs by eliminating unnecessary component changes and a
decrease in downtime due to premature scheduled maintenance as well enabling
calculation of optimum drain intervals that will reduce lubricant costs and
assure maximum equipment protection.
Your regular full flow engine oil filter will only remove wear particles
down to the 20-25 micron range. The filter cannot remove finer particles
because the oil must be filtered quickly while removing most of the
particles present in the oil, except the particles below the 20 micron
range. A study completed by Federal Mogul Corp. analyzing over 7000 main and
connecting rod bearings concluded that 60% of all engine wear occurs in the
5-20 micron range. This is why no matter how much you change your current
full flow oil and filter, regardless of brand, that you still are not
removing the particles that cause the greatest wear in your engine.
The AMSOIL Super Duty engine oil filter utilizes a depth-type lofted fiber
media that traps and holds dirt throughout its entire thickness whereas a
regular folded paper surface-type filter quickly becomes restricted as
debris builds up on the paper surface. The AMSOIL full flow filter has a
finer synthetic cellulose filtration media, 75% greater efficiency and up to
300% greater capacity than other popular oil filters as tested according to
the Society of Automotive Engineers HS806 test method.
If you choose not to install the Dual Remote by-pass filtration system then
the AMSOIL Super Duty full flow engine filter would be of a significant
benefit to the long term durability of your engine as well as allowing for
7,500-10,000 miles of service on the filter. When the filter is changed at
7,500-10,000 miles all you have to do is top off the oil. When you reach
20,000 miles you can either change the oil and filter or take an oil sample
from the dipstick tube using an AMSOIL sampling pump and send it into Oil
Analyzer's Inc. using a pre-paid kit. Oil analysis will indicate the exact
condition of the oil and whether it is suitable for continued service as
well as determining if there are any other engine components or wear items
that you need to be concerned with.
AMSOIL has a complete line of synthetic motor oils, greases, transmission
fluids, gear lubes, Two-Stage foam air filters, by-pass and full flow
filters and filtration systems designed to extend the life of your vehicles
and equipment and save you time and money. In addition we also offer a
preferred customer wholesale purchase option, retail purchase option or
commercial account purchase option for businesses. We also offer a
Dealership Option for anyone interested in becoming an AMSOIL Dealer and/or
purchasing products at wholesale cost.
How to Reduce or Prevent Turbocharger Bearing
Seizures on Duramax Diesels
One of the many
specific areas, on turbocharged Duramax Diesel engines, that can clearly
benefit from the use of synthetic oil is the turbocharger. When a
turbocharged engine is shut off immediately after use, "heat soak" occurs
due to the extremely high temperature still present in the turbocharger.
Over a period of time this can lead to deposits that can reduce or block the
oil flow to the turbocharger bearings which can lead to turbocharger bearing
seizure.
AMSOIL's Synthetic Diesel Oils are inherently more thermally stable than
many diesel oils on the market and have been shown to keep turbochargers
considerably cleaner than other brands of oil. While poor quality engine
oils have been shown to cause turbocharger bearing seizure in under 100
hours during a "heat soak" test.
Many engine oils will survive the 100 hour "heat soak" test, but..., with
considerable deposits and incipient oil passage blocking. If you use low
quality diesel oils make sure you let the engine idle for a few minutes
after use to allow the engine and turbocharger to cool. This does not
eliminate deposit formation but it can reduce it.
Take a look at the varnish deposits in this picture. These are the results
of a severe high temperature deposit test. This test clearly shows that
AMSOIL keeps engines cleaner longer than other major brands diesel oils.
Which oil would you rather have protecting your engine?

The bottom line: To
prevent or eliminate turbocharger bearing seizure, there is no substitute
for a high quality synthetic diesel oil (like AMSOIL's) as they have been
have been proven to maintain turbochargers in an almost "as fitted"
condition and significantly reduce deposit formation.
We are here to help you learn the facts
and show you how you can use AMSOIL and get a superior product and also
increase the performance and add to the longevity of your Duramax Diesel
plus save time and money. Duramax Diesel trucks are excellent vehicles and
exceptionally well engineered by General Motors. In our opinion they are one
of the most advanced vehicles ever produced, however there are ways to make
the performance and longevity even better with AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants.
We have an article of an AMSOIL user with 731,000 miles on his 1993 Ford
Aerostar on the original engine and transmission. He was using AMSOIL from
the beginning. This type of mileage is not uncommon when using AMSOIL
synthetic lubricants.
Simply changing your oil more often with
"reputable" oil will not give you all the benefits that AMSOIL offers:
You will not get improved fuel
economy, you will not get reduced engine wear, you will not get reduced
operating temperatures, you will not get extended drain intervals and you
will not save money in the long run.
AMSOIL has been in business since 1972 and was the first company in the
world to develop an API (Automotive Petroleum Institute) rated synthetic
lubricant for automotive applications. They coined the phrase "extended
drain intervals" 30 years ago and have been on the leading edge of
technology and innovation ever since then. We have many satisfied customers
using AMSOIL products in both their commercial, trucking, fleet as well as
personal, family and recreational vehicles.
AMSOIL is the undisputed leader in
synthetics.............

Since
1972, AMSOIL
Synthetics have proven to be the BEST.
AMSOIL also engineers and manufactures Ea Oil
Filters with Nanofiber Technology which have a 25,000 mile/1-year service life as well as
specialized filtration systems for commercial and fleet
applications in cars and light, medium and heavy trucks which
