AMSOIL Premium API CJ-4 Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40
Diesel Oil (DME) 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 Premium Synthetic
15W-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, the leader in automotive
synthetic lubrication, produced the worlds 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 15W-40 Diesel Oil is a low-sulfated
ash formulation that provides excellent performance in low-emission
diesel engines. It is compatible with all exhaust treatment devices
and is designed to extend the service life of diesel particulate
filters (DPF).
Extended Drain Performance
AMSOIL Premium 15W-40 Diesel Oil can extend drain
intervals far beyond those recommended for conventional petroleum
oils. Its unique synthetic formulation and longdrain additive
system (10.4 TBN) deliver superior engine protection, cleanliness
and performance over extended drain intervals. AMSOIL Synthetic
15W-40 Diesel Oil provides maximum protection for up to 3X the
OEM-recommended drain interval, and further with oil analysis.
Controls Soot-Thickening and Wear
The advanced synthetic base oils in AMSOIL 15W-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.
Superior Shear Stability, Reduced Oil Consumption
AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Diesel Oil has lower
volatility (burn-off) than conventional petroleum oils. Because
less oil vapor passes into the combustion chamber, oil consumption
and emissions are reduced. Lower volatility helps AMSOIL Premium
Diesel Oil retain its viscosity after high-temperature service
for continued dependable protection.
Ideal for Fleets
AMSOIL Premium 15W-40 Diesel Oil reduces operating
costs through extended drain intervals. It is engineered for a
wide range of applications, allowing fleet operators to consolidate
engine oil inventories in mixed fleets. In addition, it reduces
downtime through extended drain intervals and improved equipment
protection.

COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 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 Premium API CJ-4 Synthetic 15W-40 Diesel
Oil (DME) is recommended for extended drain intervals in engines
that are unmodified and in good operating condition.
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.
2007-2010 Dodge 6.7L, Ford 6.4L, GM 6.6L LMM
light duty diesel pickups must follow OEM drain interval. Drain
intervals can be extended further with oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
Two times (2X) OEM* recommendation, not to
exceed 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first.
Operating conditions and drain intervals for
normal and severe service are defined by the OEM. Refer to your
owners 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.
