Are you guys (and girls) ready for AMSOIL?

[ippkiss]

Alright I'm very excited to be able to offer the members of dsmtalk AMSOIL.

AMSOIL is one of the leaders in synthetic technology. A lot of you may remember that I used to love Mobile One with a passion. A while back, Mobile one had a lawsuit against Castrol because Castrol was using Group III base stock oils and calling them synthetic. Mobil One actual lost that lawsuit, and in the process figured if they couldn't beat them they would join them.

It was at that point I began to look for a new oil for my cars. I looked around locally to find AMSOIL but no one carried it. I then decided if no one around me carried it, I would become a dealer for them myself so I could get it, and the rest is history.

Now AMSOIL might cost a bit more than some other competing brands, but AMSOIL can save you money in the long run. How so you say, well how about a 25,000 mi or even 35,000 mi oil change interval on cars considered in normal service mode (perfect for your daily driver). How about a 17,500 mi oil change interval for severe service (most dsm's would fall into this category). Let’s do some quick math on an oil change for a 2g.

Lets assume you drive 17,500 mi a year

30 quarts of regular 10w30 oil at 2.50 a quart $75.00 in oil
6 standard oil filters at 6$ a filter $36.00 in filters

$111.00 for a year

5 quarts of AMSOIL 10w30 at 11.10 a quart $55.50 in oil
1 AMSOIL EA filter for a 2g 17.30 a filter $17.30 in filters

$72.80 for a year with AMSOIL

That’s a savings of $38.20 a year with AMSOIL and you get to protect your motor and turbocharger bearings with a full synthetic lubricant. For those that don't believe in oil coking on hot turbo charger bearings when you turn the car off, try your car on normal dino oil for a while with hot shutoffs after driving hard. When I did my first oil change on my 1995 Talon TSi AWD way back in 2000, I was greeted by some huge chunks of coked up oil coming out of the drain pan that almost looked like black gummy bears. A good synthetic can and will protect against this. Plus if you factor in all the wasted time from doing 6 oil changes a year vs. one, you've got more time to things that matter, like modding.

there are lots of oils to chose from and I will go over them some in my next post

Good oils for DSM's

10w30 full synthetic (25,000 mi oil change interval) good for your car during the warmer months

http://www.amsoil.com/redirect.cgi?z...storefront/ATM

5w30 full synthetic (25,000 mi oil change interval) better cars in winter months 40 degrees and below

http://www.amsoil.com/redirect.cgi?z...storefront/ASL


0w30 Signature Series synthetic (up to a 35,000 mi oil change interval) good year round

25,000 mi long life filters 1g & 2g your looking for the EAO13 3000 gt owners are looking for the EAO20
http://www.amsoil.com/redirect.cgi?z...storefront/EAO


A good Manual trans fluid, and also good for the transfer case 75w90 full synthetic
http://www.amsoil.com/redirect.cgi?z...storefront/MTG


A good Auto tans fluid (you must use a bottle of black lubeguard with this product)
http://www.amsoil.com/redirect.cgi?z...storefront/ATF

A good rear diff fluid

There are many other products that you can get through the AMSOIL Site including Trico wiper blades & mothers car care products so be sure to check them all out.




Amsoil also has a huge selection of oiled cotton cone filters, so if you're looking for a K&N style filter let me know and I can get you one along with the cleaning kits and oil.

Ill be trying some out come time for my oil change.

If your going to, now is a great time to sea foam the car. Get ready for the oil change, Let the sea foam clean off your carbon and leak into the old oil then change it out for the fresh AMSOIL.

[The_EE]

Well, I am about a month or two away from a change, depending on how much I drive the car, it might not even be coming until spring. Brand new engine on the car and I just did a change a few weeks back.

I know of Sea Foam but do you really trust it? and How long does shipping take for it? Sounds delightful.

I am not a vendor for Sea Foam. I have used in in the past on torn apart motors, and on my daily driver civic. If you remember the way back clubdsm.org there was a huge thing on Mopar Combustion Chamber Cleaner, and sea foam can be used the same way. Sucked in through a vac hose or sprayed out of the can. I would not use it in the oil of a turbocharged car.

AMSOIL does have a similar product that you put in the fuel, called Performance Improver

P.i. Performance Improver Concentrate (API)
Improves fuel mileage an average of 2.3% and up to 5.7%. Reduces emissions such as hydrocarbons (HC) up to 15%, carbon monoxide (CO) up to 26% and nitrous oxides (NOx) up to 17%. Restores power and performance. Reduces the need for costly higher octane fuel. Reduces noise from carbon rap and pre-ignition. Offers better vehicle drivability and smoother operation.

Untreated Fuel Leads to Poor Engine Performance
A vehicle demonstrates its best efficiency and engine performance when it is new. As the engine ages, its performance suffers from gasoline fuel-generated deposits that form on the fuel injectors, intake valves and combustion chamber. Additives are required to control deposit formation.

Today’s fuels, however, lack sufficient treatments of either enough additives or high quality additives. Fuel system deposits result in the following:

• Lost fuel economy
• Lost power and poor throttle response
• Failed emission tests
• Poor drivability - surging, hesitation, stalling, rough idle
• Engine knocking (pinging) and rap
• Difficult starts

Treated Fuel Delivers Maximum Performance
AMSOIL P.i. is the most potent gasoline additive available today. As a concentrated detergent, it is unsurpassed in cleaning combustion chamber deposits, intake valve deposits and port fuel injector deposits. AMSOIL P.i. helps maintain peak engine efficiency, fuel economy, power and drivability in newer low mileage engines. In engines with accumulated deposits, testing showed AMSOIL P.i. provided the following clean-up benefits after only one tank of gasoline:

• Improves fuel mileage an average of 2.3% and up to 5.7%
• Reduced emissions
• hydrocarbons (HC) up to 15%
• carbon monoxide (CO) up to 26%
• nitrous oxides (NOx) up to 17%
• Restored power and performance
• Reduced need for costly higher octane fuel
• Reduced noise from carbon rap and pre-ignition
• Better drivability
• Smoother operation

AMSOIL P.i. works as an “emissions passer.” It is ideal for use prior to emissions inspections.

Unsurpassed Deposit Clean-up
Port Fuel Injector Deposits form after the engine has been shut down and there is no gasoline flowing through the injectors. During this “hot soak” period the injectors heat up and the gasoline remaining in the injectors degrades and forms deposits. This can happen very quickly with the use of poor quality gasoline and short trip driving. Because the clearances within the injectors are extremely tight and injectors must deliver precise amounts of “atomized” fuel, even small amounts of deposits can cause injectors to malfunction. Fuel flow is reduced and spray patterns are disrupted, decreasing engine efficiency, power and fuel economy, while increasing exhaust emissions.



Shipping takes about a week if you go ground there are quicker shipping options. If you want to get somthing ASAP, PM me your info and I'll get with you later on tonight.
