Cold-Weather Performance
Many consumers use the fall months to prepare their vehicles and equipment for winter. If there’s a weak point in a vehicle, it seems as though the cold will find it and create problems. Plastic becomes brittle, fuel and lubricants can gel and extreme cold is just plain hard on things. The winter months bring unique challenges for lubricants and are great for showcasing the enhanced performance benefits of AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oils and Lubricants. Conventional lubricants are far more susceptible to the effects of extreme temperatures. Extreme cold at startup can cause oils to thicken, starving vital moving parts of necessary lubrication.
In many cases the motor oil will thicken to the point that the vehicle will not start. Many motorists let vehicles idle for extended periods to warm the interior and defrost the windows. Others create extreme heat in the engine by plowing or getting stuck in deep snow. These are just a few examples of the many challenges lubricants face in a typical North American winter. AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oils and Lubricants are formulated for maximum cold-temperature performance, allowing quick starts, superior protection and versatility.
