| Using AMSOIL
Synthetic Motor Oil Saves Money & Time |
| Savings Through
Extended Drain Intervals |
If you haven't changed
to synthetic engine oil, transmission fluid and gear lube yet, you
may be losing money in more ways than you think.
 Most passenger vehicles and
light trucks on the road today are great candidates
for savings
realized through "Extended Drain Intervals", when running
AMSOIL products.
Simply put, the term "Extended Drain Interval" was coined
by AMSOIL to represent the fact that their synthetic oils and lubricants
could be
changed less frequently than conventional petroleum based products
due to their superior characteristics and fit for purpose.
Just about everyone shopping for motor oil, whether the intent is
to do it yourself or have it changed, immediately notices the higher
price synthetic engine oil
commands compared to conventional motor oil, and they ask:
|
| "AMSOIL costs more than
my regular oil
does. How can I justify paying this
higher cost?" |
True
consumer cost isn't included in the purchase
price. AMSOIL motor oils are extremely cost
effective compared to conventional
3,000-mile drain interval oils in savings
realized in fuel economy, reduced repairs,
fewer oil changes, reduced downtime, reduced
maintenance and extended engine life.
Below, we've put together a couple of realistic examples illustrating cost savings
when selecting AMSOIL synthetic motor oil over
conventional motor oils. |
| Motor Oil Cost Comparison
#1 - 25,0000 Mile Oil Change |
| In this first example
we have compared the price of a years worth of oil changes between
a standard petroleum based oil and AMSOIL
10W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil (ATM) - (25,000 Miles/1 Year). |
| Conventional (Petroleum Based)
10W-30 Motor Oil (25,000 Miles/1 Year) - 8 Oil Changes |
| *(40 quarts needed for 25,000 miles) |
@ $3.50/qt.
x 40 = |
$140.00 |
| 8 Standard
Oil Filters (8 Oil Changes) |
@ $6.25/filter
x 8 = |
$50.00 |
| |
Total |
$190.00 |
| *Conventional motor oil companies

|
| AMSOIL
10W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil (ATM) - (25,000 Miles/1 Year)
- 1 Oil Change |
| *(5 Quarts. needed
for 25,000 miles) |
@ $7.00/qt.
x 5 = |
$36.25 |

| Motor Oil Cost Comparison
#2 - 35,000 Mile Oil Change (Worst Case Scenario) |
| AMSOIL Introduces the
35,000 Mile Oil Change |
| In this second oil change
cost comparison, we are comparing a standard petroleum based motor
oil with AMSOIL's newest , best performing and most expensive 35,000
mile synthetic engine oil; AMSOIL
0W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil (SSO). At the same time we are going
to push the standard
motor
oil out to 5,000 mile drain intervals as some drivers do. This is
a "Worst Case" motor drain interval cost comparison. As
you will see, AMSOIL comes out on top, providing more engine protection
at
a lower cost with less maintenance time. |
| AMSOIL 35,000 Mile Synthetic
Motor Oil |
| At first glance, both
competitors and motorists might react to AMSOIL's recent announcement
of 35,000 mile engine oil as "unbelievable", so let's review
the independent test results below before we look at the oil change
cost
comparison for premium engine protection: |
 |
| 35,000 Mile Oil Change
Cost Comparison |
| Conventional (Petroleum Based)
10W-30 Motor Oil (35,000 Miles/1 Year, Extended to 5,000 Mile
Drain Interval Service) - 7 Oil Changes |
| *(35 quarts
needed for 35,000 miles) |
@ $3.50/qt.
x 35 = |
$122.50 |
| *7 Standard
Oil Filters |
@ $6.25/filter
x 8 = |
$43.75 |
| |
Total |
$166.25 |
*Against manufacturer recommendations,
some motorists push their conventional oil drain intervals out
to
5,000-miles, taxing both oil and oil filter performance. However,
there remains some argument that the "premium"
petroleum based engine oils are capable of 5,000 mile drain intervals
these days due to more advanced refining methods.
The fact remains
though, that petroleum based engine oils contain particulate
matter which score engine wear surfaces much more severely
than synthetic motor oils do. Even if petroleum
oils could be economically refined to meet comparable wear qualities
as synthetics, their base material properties would continue
to be inferior to many synthetic
oil properties, including temperature and shear performance. |

| AMSOIL "Ea" Full
Flow Oil Filters |
 AMSOIL
Ea Oil Filters are made with premium-grade full
synthetic media. Ea Oil Filters feature advanced full synthetic
nanofiber technology, ranking them among
the highest
efficiency oil filters on the market today for auto and light
truck applications.
AMSOIL Ea Filters are guaranteed for 25,000 miles or one year, which
ever comes first, when used in conjunction with AMSOIL Synthetic
Motor
Oils as recommended in the 25,000 and 35,000 mile drain intervals
above. These"Drain Interval" scenarios include both gasoline
and diesel vehicles in normal service.
AMSOIL
premium engine oils should be used with a premium oil filter when
extending
drain intervals. AMSOIL
Ea
Full-Flow Oil Filters are designed for extended drain intervals.
They stop
smaller
particles, flow more oil and last longer than regular filters. For
best performance, use AMSOIL Ea Full-Flow oil filters with any motor
oil change. |

Save Money and Time |
| Passenger Vehicle and
Light Truck Owners - Motorist Savings For Every American Family |
We have already demonstrated
the immediate monetary savings that most motorists
can realize by switching to AMSOIL's 25,000 or the new 35,000 mile
oil
change
intervals in the examples above. We have not however, focused on
the more hidden costs that are contributing to the wholesale public
abandonment of petroleum based engine oils right now!
We recently
anomalously spoke to the manager of a local national chain auto
parts store that carries AMSOIL products, and he commented: |
| " Everyone is switching
to synthetics. We are seeing much less demand for the old standard
oils and they are going up in price where the synthetic oils aren't". |
| He also stated: |
| "The standard oils are
now going for $3.50-$4.00/quart." |
Even if you drive only
12,000 miles per year, the final cost using AMSOIL is less than you
pay for petroleum oil now! Plus
you get better protection, lower engine temperatures, improved
fuel efficiency, easier cold-weather starts, better lubrication
at cold crank, and less waste which is better for the environment.
All of these benefits
add up
to
reduced operating costs and longer engine life.
Change your oil
and filter today and in 12 months change the oil and filter again. If
you are the typical motorist that takes your vehicle/s to a quick
change oil lube specialist you will probably save at least 14hrs/year
or almost 2 days of time you could spend in business, friends
or family (based on 2hrs each for 8 oil changes vs.1/yr - above).
 What could be more convenient and better for your vehicle, your
family and yourself?
Since we can now change oil and filters on an extended basis, it
may be best to just go ahead and do a complete vehicle maintenance
once a year to protect ourselves, vehicle investments, our families and
our businesses.
For responsible vehicle owners that choose this
option, AMSOIL has
made this an
easy alternative.
Simply
click
on the product application guide graphic to the right and you will
be able to securely order all maintenance products for your passenger
vehicles and light trucks and have them delivered right to your
door. You will
also be able to print out capacities and torque settings.

even my webmaster (mechanical engineer) is changing from Mobil1
