AMSOIL OE
15W-40 Synthetic Diesel Oil API CJ-4
PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL OE 15W-40 Synthetic Diesel Oil
(OED) provides excellent protection and performance in both on- and
off-road engines for the original equipment manufacturer’s recommended
drain interval. It meets API CJ-4
specifications and is suitable for both modern and older diesel
applications. AMSOIL OE 15W-40 Synthetic
Diesel Oil exceeds the higher performance demands of modern engines and
withstands the stress of heat, soot and acids to help prevent deposits,
wear and corrosion.
Meets Emission System Requirements
AMSOIL OE 15W-40 Synthetic Diesel Oil is a low-sulfated
ash formulation that meets the requirements for low-emission quality diesel
oil and protects under the most severe conditions found in modern diesel
engines. It is compatible with all
exhaust treatment devices and is designed for engines equipped with diesel
particulate filters (DPF).
Extreme-Temperature Performance
AMSOIL OE 15W-40 Synthetic Diesel Oil is formulated for
improved heat and oxidation resistance over conventional petroleum oil for
cleaner engine operation, maintaining power and fuel efficiency for
superior engine performance. Its
dependable cold-temperature flow assures easier start-up and improved post
start-up protection.
Resists Oil Consumption and Emissions
Due to its low rate of volatility (burn-off), AMSOIL OE
15W-40 Synthetic Diesel Oil is able to reduce oil consumption and emissions
during operation. It maintains its
excellent film strength even during high-temperature operating conditions
to ensure dependable protection, performance and fuel efficiency.
Controls Soot-Thickening and Wear
AMSOIL OE 15W-40 Synthetic Diesel Oil is formulated with
premium synthetic base stocks and robust detergent/dispersant additives
that keep soot particles from agglomerating and forming larger wear-causing
particles. The AMSOIL OE 15W-40
Synthetic Diesel Oil formulation allows for optimal soot-related viscosity
control to maintain stay-in-grade performance.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL OE 15W-40 Synthetic Diesel Oil is recommended for
diesel engines and, where appropriate, gasoline engines requiring any of
the following specifications:
- SAE 15W-40
- API CJ-4, CI-4+, SM
- ACEA E9
- DDC 93K218
- Cummins CES20081
- MB 228.31

COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL OE 15W-40 Synthetic Diesel Oil is compatible with
conventional and synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL motor oils with other
oils, however, reduce the performance benefits.
Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended for use with AMSOIL motor oils.
Service Life
AMSOIL OE 15W-40 is recommended for the intervals stated
by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Refer to the owner’s manual
for specific oil change interval recommendations. AMSOIL recommends the oil filter be
replaced at each oil change as recommended by the OEM.
