New AMSOIL "Fabulous Four" 2-Cycle Oils
provide second-to-none protection and performance in modern
two-cycle equipment
Two-cycle engines remain the workhorses in recreational
equipment, including outboard motors, motorcycles, snowmobiles
and personal watercraft, as well as in lawn and garden applications
like lawn mowers and weed eaters. Design changes over recent
years have included direct fuel injection engines, in which
fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber, and
exhaust power valves, which improve combustion efficiency
at varying RPM. These design changes have allowed two-cycle
engine manufacturers to effectively reduce emissions, improve
fuel efficiency and decrease oil consumption. Today's two-cycle
motors of all types require specialized oil technology to
deliver maximum engine protection, dependable operation
and long service life
As the leader in two-cycle oil technology, AMSOIL
has performed extensive research in developing a new line
of revolutionary, specialized oils called the "Fabulous
Four." AMSOIL INTERCEPTOR Synthetic 2-Cycle Oil (AIT)
was the first new oil to be introduced. It is primarily
recommended as an injector oil or at a 50:1 mix ratio in
carbureted, electronic fuel injected (EFI) and direct fuel
injected (DFI) snowmobiles, personal watercraft, motorcycles
and ATV's. Formulated with wax-free premium quality synthetic
esters and a specialized additive package, INTERCEPTOR is
designed to address the exhaust valve sticking problems
associated with certain snowmobile models.
New AMSOIL HP Injector Synthetic 2-Cycle
Oil (HPI), DOMINATOR Synthetic 2-Cycle Racing Oil
(TDR) and Saber Professional (ATP) and Outboard
(ATO) Synthetic 100:1 Pre-Mix 2-Cycle Oils complete the
Fabulous Four lineup, replacing AMSOIL Synthetic 2-Cycle
Injector Oil, Series 2000 Synthetic 2-Cycle Racing Oil and
100:1 Pre-Mix Synthetic 2-Cycle Oil, respectively. The application
chart below ranks each oil's performance in common two-cycle
applications.

Even though AMSOIL 2-Cycle Oils
have been optimized for specific applications, they are
multi-functional and recommended for use in many areas.
The chart rates each oil's performance abilities per application
as follows:
Excellent: "The" primary recommendation
for the oil. This is the best possible choice for the application.
The oil is specifically designed for the operating conditions
of the motors in these markets. There is only one "Excellent"
recommendation per category.
Very Good: A main recommendation for
the oil. Identifies an oil that is very good for the operating
conditions of these motors.
Good: A secondary recommendation for
an oil. The oil was not specifically designed for these
applications, however, the chemistry in the oil is suited
to the operating conditions of these motors.
Not Recommended: Identifies applications
where the product was not intended for use. "Excellent"
rated products otter superior performance.
Racing:
(1) Not recommended for long-term use in
outboard motors as a TC-W3 type oil, although excellent
as a race oil for short term use where motors are periodically
inspected.
(2) Excellent for racing or modified motors.
Very good for recreational use.
*Recommended for all (OFI) direct fuel injected,
(EFI) electronic fuel injected, and carbureted motors. Outboard
motors include Mercury®, Optimax®, Johnson® & Evinrude®
FICHT® & E-TEC®, Yamaha® HPDI, Nissan® & Tohatsu®
