Motor Oil Info

Motor oil becomes unfit for service after a period of use. Two main reasons for this are the accumulation of contaminants in the oil and chemical changes (additive depletion and oxidation) in the oil itself. These factors cause deterioration of the oil and prevent it from doing the job of lubricating amd cooling engine parts.

Design limitations of air cleaners, some oil fill caps, and crankcase ventilation systems allow some dust and dirt to enter the engine. Leaks in the intake system also permit unfiltered air to enter the engine. However, proper maintenance of the engine and its accessories can minimize the amount of contaminants entering the lubrication system and extend engine life.

AMSOIL synthetic motor oils allows motorists continued protection of their engines along with extended drain intervals, all while limiting the contaminants in the oil and prolonging engine life.
