Home of the Original (FIRST) Extended Oil Change. Amsoil has been recommending 25,000 mile oil changes since 1972!
A. J. Amatuzio (President of Amsoil): Our company makes the best lubricants in the world, period, and challenges anyone or any other company to prove us wrong! That wont happen because our competitors know it's true. A. J. Amatuzio, announced that the phrase "The First in Synthetics" is now a part of the Amsoil registered trademark. No other oil company in the world can now claim this. A. J. Amatuzio explained how this all came to be Amsoil INC. He applied to have "The First in Synthetics" registered and was told that he must prove to the Trademark officials, with documentation, that Amsoil INC. was the first, historically. They also said by claiming to be first he must also mean Amsoil is the best in quality and performance. So Mr. Amatuzio had to convince them that they had better products than any other oil company in the world. Amsoil began to present comparison documentation and test results backing up the claim that Amsoil hands down was and is the best. The trademark officials accepted the documentation to allow Amsoil to use "First" in part of their trademark. The process still was not through yet. The trademark officials now required the government to notify all other oil manufactures that would be impacted by the decision, so they would have the right to abject before the decision would be official. They were all notified in writing and given 90 days to voice their opinions, object, or comment on this. After 90 days not one manufacture in the entire world responded. Amsoil not only convinced the trademark office that Amsoil was the first historically, but also convinced them that Amsoil is the first in quality, and performance and still no other competitor objected!
What Bobby Unser had to say about Amsoil at the 30th anniversay convention. Indy car racing legend Bobby Unser attended the AMSOIL 30th anniversary convention and stated that he has used AMSOIL motor oils in all his vehicles for many years, including all his race cars. In fact, he said all of today's high level racers use synthetic motor oils because the engines simply demand the higher quality of synthetics. Bobby got up on stage and told about how his race car differentials could not survive more than one race up Pikes Peak without needing to be rebuilt, until he started using AMSOIL. Then his differentials went all race season without needing to be rebuilt. This experience in Bobby's early years of racing began his long relationship with AMSOIL in all his race cars. Bobby went on to say that "AMSOIL is the Best Lubricant made, the Standard to which all others are judged. Bobby Unser explained to us recently how AMSOIL was responsible for the complete absence in gear box related failures. "When you walked in the garage you may have seen a container labeled as Valvoline, Texaco or whoever the sponsor was but that's not what was in the bottle, It was AMSOIL. They would clean the bottles out and put amsoil in. - Bobby Unser Sr in the new "A.J. Amatuzio - An American Success Story (the 1.5 hour film on the history of AMSOIL). Every single synthetic oil company today copied AMSOIL! They Copied AMSOIL! But they will never have the quality and performance AMSOIL has because they can't" - Bobby Unser Sr. Bobby Unser 3-time Indy 500 Winner, 35 overall Indy Car wins, &
13-time Pikes Peak Hill Climb Winner. Bobby Unser explained to us recently how AMSOIL was responsible for the complete absence in gear box related failures.

Back in 1972, the American Petroleum Institute's rating was first applied to a remarkable synthetic motor oil. It was the first of it's kind to meet auto service requirements, and it was formulated by Amsoil. Since then Amsoil has produced a complete line of synthetic lubricants, capturing the attention of giant oil companies. And no wonder! Natural impurities in petroleum oil shorten it's life, and contribute to engine wear. There are NO IMPURITIES IN Amsoil... It's unique molecular design creates a product with amazing durability. Long lasting Amsoil synthetic motor oil doesn't boil away in extreme heat, and remains fluid in extreme cold. Amsoil synthetic motor oil is impervious to both hot and cold temperature operations. What¹s more, you don¹t have to change the oil as often because AMSOIL runs cleaner and lasts far longer than conventional motor oils. The corporate giants who once said "it'll never catch on" now produce synthetic oil of their own. But none has the benefit of Amsoil's thirty years' of research and development. Switch to Amsoil synthetic motor oil... First of it's kind... The Pioneer. So now you ask about other motor oil manufacturers. Well on the back of every bottle of Amsoil's Series 2000 0W-30, Amsoil's Series 2000 20W-50 and Amsoil's Heavy Duty Diesel Oil Series 3000 5W-30 have independent lab testing results posted on the label. Now if any of this info wasn't 100% accurate Amsoil would have a lot of explaining to do because the other brands of oil listed on their label would be taking Amsoil to court yet in 30 years this has never happened. The FTC has never filed a false advertising claim against Amsoil and Amsoil has been recommending 25,000 mile or changes since 1972! Below are the graphs on the back label of these Amsoil products. The smaller the wear scar (the number) the better it protects your engine. The high the number the worse it protects your engine.
Series 2000 0W-30
Series 2000 20W-50
Series 3000 5W-30 Amsoil has independent lab results showing how Mobil 1 stacks up to Amsoil's 5W-30. It was tested against Mobil 1 Supersyn 5W-30. The results are posted below.
Mobil will not and does not recommend or guarantee 25,000 mile or one year oil drain intervals like Amsoil 5W-30, 10W-30, or 10W-30. Amsoil now has a motor oil recommended for 35,000 mile or one year. Series 2000 0W-30. You wont find anything like a extended drain interval on Mobil's bottle but it's written on every bottle of Amsoil motor oil. So Mobil's long time tag line of "Nothing Outperforms Mobil 1" is actually a lie. Our tests prove it! One of the most important functions of motor oil is to capture and suspend contaminants and wear particles, preventing premature wear on an engines internal parts. Acting alone, motor oil would quickly become saturated with these contaminants and wear materials and would require very frequent changing, perhaps as often as every 500 miles, in order to effectively guard against wear. It is an engines oil filter which allows motor oil to last for an extended period of time. The Amsoil Advantage Amsoil Super Duty Oil Filters (SDF) are designed for maximum efficiency, capacity and longevity, while meeting the high flow demands of modern engine designs. In fact, with its advanced filtration media composed of a special Cellulose, Synthetic and Glass Blend, Amsoil SDF Oil Filters have over a 75 percent better combined efficiency/capacity rating than other popular oil filters as tested according to industry standards. Amsoil SDF Filters are also approximately 65 percent efficient at removing 10 micron particles. In addition, Amsoil SDF Filters are designed for extended drain intervals of 12,500 miles or six months (whichever comes first), making them ideal for use in conjunction with premium Amsoil Synthetic Motor Oils.

Filtration The Amsoil By-Pass Oil Filter provides the best possible filtration on the market, protecting against wear, oil degradation, rust and corrosion. Situated outside the main line of oil circulation, the Amsoil By-Pass Filter works in conjunction with the full-flow filter, thoroughly filtering 10 percent of the oil at a time and removing wear-causing contaminants down to less than one micron in size. The Amsoil By-Pass Filter effectively filters all the oil in a six quart system in about five minutes at an average speed of 45 mph. Water enters motor oil as a combustion by-product or as a condensate. When it contaminates motor oil, it can cause serious engine damage by causing metal surface rust and corrosion, which increases friction and wear and deteriorates the close-fitting tolerances between engine components. It can also react with other contaminants to form corrosive acids, which also damage metal components. The Amsoil By-Pass Filter effectively removes up to a pint of damaging water, significantly increasing the time oil can be safely left in the engine. The effectiveness of the Amsoil By-Pass Filter lies in its construction. Its high-capacity filtration medium is a special blend of virgin wood and cotton fibers, formed into discs, stacked and compressed. The center tube is all-steel, perforated for oil flow and wrapped with a fine mesh cotton screen. Each filter includes a mounting unit with a spin-on filtering cartridge, connected by hoses to engine ports. The entire by-pass system fits into most cramped engine compartments, allowing quick and easy access. Particles sized down to less than one micron are trapped and removed, while the filters thirsty cellulose fibers remove water. By-Pass Filter Accessories: The Amsoil Dual-Guard Filtration System links two Amsoil By-Pass Filter elements together for engines with sump capacities greater than 20 quarts. For detailed info on Duel By-Pass Filtration Systems Click Here. Amsoil makes some of the best oil filters in the world. Regular oil filters you can pick up at your local parts store can filter in the range of 25 to 35 microns. Amsoil Ea oil filters do this in the range of 3 to 10 microns! They are also recommended for 25,000 miles or 1 year which ever comes first. Click here to see independent lab testing of how Amsoil Ea Oil Filters stand up against the competition. Amsoil also has high efficiency filtration system that filter down to 1 micron and virtually eliminate engine wear. Oil change can be extended far beyond 25,000 miles with these systems. Using oil analysis then tells you when your oil needs to be changed. Many people are going 75,000 to 100,000 miles before needing to change there oil.

Know the Facts Amsoil extended
drain intervals mean fewer oil changes, Example: Conventional motor oil companies recommend 3,000-mile drain intervals
Amsoil recommends 25,000-mile/1-year drain intervals
* Comparison based on 25,000 miles driven per year and 5-quart oil capacity, with one quart top-off for filter change. You save $36.00 per year using Amsoil premium quality synthetic motor oil and oil filters. And at Amsoil's Preferred Customer prices, you save $47.50! Even if you drive only 12,000 miles per year, the cost for Amsoil is the same as you pay for petroleum oil now! (Of course being a Preferred Customer you'd still save money.) But you still get better protection, lower engine temperatures, easier cold-weather starts and less engine wear. All of these benefits add up to an engine that will last longer and need fewer repairs. Change your oil and filter today and in six months change the filter again. That's it! What could be more convenient and good for your vehicle, too A good friend of mine (Michael Stevens) recently converted his 98 Ford F-150 and his 98 Ford Expedition over to AMSOIL. He was changing his oil every 2 months because of the mileage both vehicles were being driven by his wife and himself. He was going to a local quick lube station and being charged $30 for every oil change. I asked Mike what he was spending a year on oil changes alone. We added it up. $30 for each vehicle every 2 months. That's $60 every 2 months. x that by 6 and your looking at $360 a year on oil changes! Now even if he had been changing the oil himself he'd still be spending around $300 a year doing this. Mike is a Preferred Customer and receives all his Amsoil products at Dealer Cost. (The prices shown are Preferred Customer prices, which are around 20% to 30% below retail prices. He is paying under $5.00 a quart. He needed 6 quarts for both trucks. That's 12 quarts of 5W-30 for under $5.00 a quart, x 12 = $54.60. Then he purchased an Amsoil EA Oil Filter Part# Ea34 for the F-150, Under ($7.50) and a Ea11 for the Expedition also under $8.00. That's $15.25. The Amsoil Ea Oil Filters are recommended for 12,500 miles or 6 months of service. So he'll need to change just the filters 6 months from now and replacing just the oil that was in the filters. So that is $15.25 for the 2 filters and half a quart added to each vehicle at under $5.00 a quart. Mike is now spending $89.65 a year in stead of the $360 a year he was spending. That's a savings of $270.35! Along with switching his engines over, (a 4.2L in the F-150 and 5.4L in the Expedition) he switched both transmissions over and the rear ends as well. (The rear ends will never need fluid replacement again) Now he was changing his transmission fluid at the manufacturer recommended intervals of every 30,000 miles. He said he was taking the vehicles to the quick lube to have this service done. They charge $89.99 for a filter and fluid replacement. (This means dropping the transmission pan, changing the filter and the fluid that was in the pan) This type of service still leave around 50% of the old transmission fluid in the torque converter. Now they charged $169.99 for a complete transmission fluid change. (This the same as above but also remove the old fluid that is in your torque converter as well.) This is by far the best service because it removes all the old fluid. The first service is in a way like only doing half a oil change. You can see why the second is better. So every year he would spend the $169.99 and have both of his vehicles transmissions flushed and refilled. That's $339.98 a year! Now Amsoil's Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is recommended for 3 times the vehicle manufacturers recommended service length. There is no time limit of this fluid. So you can leave it in for 3 x what the vehicle manufacturer recommends instead of changing it once a year. The Fords are recommended for transmission fluid changes every 30,000 miles. With Amsoil's ATF Mike is now going 90,000 miles between transmission fluid changes! He's using 14 quarts for both vehicles. That's 28 quarts total at a Preferred Customer price under $6.00 a quart x 28 = $165.20 Now Mike was spending $339.98 a year! After 3 years that's $1019.94!!! With Amsoil Mike is only spending $165.20 in 3 years! Mike is doing the complete transmission fluid changes himself. (No special tools are required what so ever.) Mike is saving over $854.74.

Ten Reasons Why You Should Switch t o Amsoil
Dramatically extends oil change intervals. Less oil used with extended drains means less oil disposed. Increases fuel economy as much as 2 - 5%. Reduces engine temperatures by as much as 25 degrees F. Provides dependable extreme cold start protection. Offers the world's finest engine and oil filtration. Reduces oil consumption and harmful emissions. Provides state-of-the-art additive systems and base oil stocks. Provides the most comprehensive and knowledgeable staff in the industry to answer questions.
How Do I Know The Test Results Are Real? Amsoil runs hundreds of tests to determine how their oils compare to others in the industry. Then they request independent labs to perform the tests again in order to verify the results by a third party. That might not mean a whole lot to you. You might however, find it interesting to note that, Amsoil posts the results of the four ball wear test (shown above) on the label of every bottle of Series 2000 0W-30, Series 2000 20W-50 and Series 3000 5W-30. If the results had been falsified or tampered with in anyway, wouldn't one of these big oil companies be taking Amsoil to court? Wouldn't Mobil be suing Amsoil INC for everything they are worth? Yes they would. As you know from the info posted above Mobil took Castrol to court because of false advertising. Through out the years since 1972 not one company is suing Amsoil over these test results. Doesn't that say something about the test results? What about the fact that the FTC is going after all these oil additive manufacturers left and right, but hasn't ever contacted Amsoil. The results speak for themselves.
Comparative Motor Oil Testing
Amsoil Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil (ATM) and 10 competing conventional, synthetic and synthetic blend 10W-30 motor oils were subjected to a series of motor oil tests. Seven tests were run on the motor oils. The Thin-Film Oxygen Uptake Test (TFOUT) measures the oxidation stability of engine oils. The High Temperature / High Shear Test (HTHS) measures a lubricants viscosity under severe operating conditions. The NOACK Volatility Test measures the evaporation loss of oils in high temperature service. Pour Point indicates the lowest temperature at which a fluid will flow. Total Base Number (TBN) is the measurement of a lubricants reserve alkalinity for combating acids. The Cold Cranking Simulator Test (CCS) indicates the degree to which a lubricant can impact cold weather starting. The impressive test results show Amsoil Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil outperformed the competitors in nearly every test.
