PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 (DEO)
is the premium choice for
API CJ-4 emission quality
diesel oil required by model
year 2007 and newer diesel
engines. It delivers
extraordinary lubrication in
diesel engines found in
commercial, fleet and
personal vehicles. Built
with the latest additive and
synthetic base oil
technology, AMSOIL Synthetic
5W-40 Diesel Oil exceeds the
higher performance demands
of modern engines. It
withstands the stress of
heat, soot and acids to help
prevent deposits, corrosion
and wear. AMSOIL Synthetic
5W-40, with its broad
viscosity range, is ideal
for winter and summer use.
It resists breakdown and can
extend drain intervals when
monitored by oil analysis.
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.
Exceeds Emission System
Requirements
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40
Diesel Oil is a low sulfated
ash formulation that exceeds
the modern requirements for
low emission quality diesel
oil. It is compatible with
all exhaust treatment
devices and is designed to
extend the service life of
particulate filters.
Controls Soot Thickening and
Wear
The advanced synthetic base
oils in AMSOIL 5W-40 Diesel
Oil are naturally resistant
to soot contamination. That,
along with a heavy
fortification of
detergent/dispersant
additives, keeps soot
particles suspended
independently, helping
prevent the formation of
larger wear causing
particles. Viscosity
increase is minimized and
soot related wear is
controlled.
Maximizes Fuel Economy and
Reduces Oil Consumption
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40
Premium Diesel Oil has a
very low high temperature
volatility rate (burn off).
Because less oil vapor
passes into the combustion
chamber, oil consumption and
emissions are reduced.
Additionally, lower
volatility helps AMSOIL
Synthetic 5W-40 retain its
viscosity after high
temperature service for
continued dependable
protection and excellent
fuel economy.
Excels in Extreme
Temperatures
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40
Premium Diesel Oil resists
thermal (heat) breakdown,
oxidation and sludge
formation better than
conventional petroleum oils.
And unlike conventional
oils, AMSOIL 5W-40 contains
no wax. It stays fluid in
cold temperatures for
improved oil flow, reduced
bearing wear and easier
starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40
Premium Diesel Oil replaces
5W-40, 10W-40 and 15W-40
viscosity oils. It is
“backwards compatible” with
pre-2007 diesel engines and
recommended for newer and
older diesel and gasoline
engines and other
applications requiring the
following worldwide
specifications:
• API CJ-4, CI-4+, CH-4,
CF
• API SM, SL, SJ...
• ACEA E7
• Mack EO-O Premium Plus
• DDC Power Guard 93K218
• Caterpillar ECF-3,
ECF-1
• Cummins CES 20081
• Volvo VDS-4
• MB 228.3
• MTU Type II
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 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 Synthetic 5W-40
Premium Diesel Oil is
recommended for use
according to the longest
service interval established
by the engine, vehicle or
equipment manufacturer.
Drain intervals may be
extended when monitored by
oil analysis.
AMSOIL Ea™ and Donaldson
Endurance™ full flow oil
filters are designed for
extended drain intervals.
They stop smaller particles,
have less restriction and
last longer than regular
filters. For best
performance use AMSOIL Ea™
or Donaldson Endurance™ oil
filters.
Health & Safety
This product is not expected
to cause health concerns
