THE AMSOIL
SPIN-ON BY-PASS OIL FILTER
Absolute
Protection from Engine Dirt
Assurance of
Analytically Clean Oil
WHY ANOTHER
FILTER? Even the best full flow-filter can't do
it all.
Any full flow filter
must allow oil to pass through it quickly to keep the
engine from starving for oil. Advances in auto
technology and more compact engine designs place
increasing demands on these filters; to keep from
creating a circulation bottleneck they filter out only
the coarser particles, and feature relief valves that
open when the engines demand for lubrication can't be
ignored.
But the smallest grit
that passes through- road dust,
manufacturing scarf, and engine metal-flake in the
5-20 micron range - accounts for up to 60% of all
engine wear. These microscopic particles closely
match the precision clearances between critical engine
components; they can enter the spaces between
bearings, rings, and other components, to damage metal
surfaces, altering tolerances, fatiguing components
and generating additional debris.
Automobile engines are
also susceptible to damage related to water formation,
something a full flow filter is powerless
against. Water enters the oil either as blowby
combustion product of fuel ignition, or as condensed
moisture from air drawn into the engine through the
air intake. Water causes metal surfaces to rust;
it also reacts with other blowby contaminants to
produce corrosive acids that attack the engine,
contributing to further friction, wear, debris, and
oil degradation.
The AMSOIL
Solution- By-Pass Filtration
Unlike a full-flow
filter, the AMSOIL By-Pass Filter is situated outside
of the main line of oil circulation; it
taps into the line to bleed off and clean only
a portion of the oil at a time. The AMSOIL
By-Pass Filter retains the oil longer and does a more
thorough job of removing contaminants without
obstructing flow. You still need a full-flow
filter, of course, because oil must circulate
continuously. But with an AMSOIL By-Pass Filter
drawing 10% of your system's capacity, all the
oil in a six-quart system will be filtered to
analytical purity in about five minutes, at an
average engine speed equivalent to 45 mph.
The differences between
the AMSOIL By-Pass Filters and others are the unique
design of the filtering media and the patented
construction of the filter element. Our
high-capacity filtration medium is a special blend of
virgin wood and cotton fibers formed into disc,
stacked, and compressed. The center tube is
all-steel, perforated for oil flow and wrapped with a
fine mesh cotton screen. All dirt particles down
to one-tenth of a micron in size are
trapped, and the medium's thirsty cellulose fibers can
remove up to a pint of water. Channeling is
eliminated with the inclusion of a hydraulic
follower plate activated by a sophisticated internal
pressure system.
The AMSOIL
Dual-Remote Oil Filtration System- For
Optimum OIL FILTRATION and Maximum SERVICE
ACCESSIBILITY
The AMSOIL Dual Remote Oil Filtration
System replaces the standard full-flow system with a
combination full-flow/by-pass system using a remote
mounting assembly.
The mount couples an AMSOIL Full Flow
Ea Oil Filter with an AMSOIL Spin-On By-Pass Filter; it
takes oil from the engine and returns it without the
use of multiple fittings or extra return holes in the
oil pan or valve cover. The mount and filters
are installed in an accessible area of the engine
compartment.
A specially-manufactured, spin-on
casting with threading adapters is simply screwed onto
the engine block's filter nipple, replacing the old
full-flow filter. In-and-out ports in the
casting and two flexible oil lines connect this
adapter to the remote mount.
Remote placement of the filtration
units allows larger oil filters to be used, and
increases sump capacity - dramatically extending the
oil's useful service life and protecting your wise
investment in AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oil. The
recommended replacement interval for the AMSOIL
By-Pass Oil Filter is 25,000 miles or one year
(whichever comes first) or longer if using oil
analysis. The AMSOIL Ea full flowfilter is changed
at 25,000 mile/1-year (whichever comes
first) for gasoline engines.
Once the Dual-Remote Filtration System
is installed if you elect to use oil analysis testing
then you DO NOT need to change your engine oil unless
oil analysis testing results indicates you need
to. Test samples are easily pulled from the
dipstick tube with an AMSOIL pump into a 3 oz bottle
and then put into a postage paid box mailed to Oil
Analyzers Inc. This is typically performed
about every 20,000 miles or every year, whichever comes
first for passenger vehicles and light duty trucks.
You may very well travel tens of thousands of miles without needing to change you oil
when using oil analysis testing. It really is a simple
process and provides an accurate analysis of your
engine's internal condition. Oil analysis
testing is common practice with commercial, fleets and
heavy-diesel equipment that you can put to use for
your benefit as well.

Customer Sold on AMSOIL Quality
and Value.
That's what today's savvy consumers want.
According to marketing analysts, the average
consumer no longer accepts general sales pitches
full of empty promises. The Internet gives consumers
instant access to nearly every possible product or
service. They look for quality information, conduct
price comparisons and then make buying decisions.
The bottom line: more bang for their buck. And when
that consumer is raising seven children, top quality
products and savings are an even greater priority.
Scott Boring, Oakfield, N.Y., has seven children
with his wife Teri. He's looking for quality and
savings to keep his 1997 GMC Yukon, with a 5.7 litre
V-8 engine that "isn't noted for gas mileage,"
running down the road carrying his large family as
efficiently as possible.
A friend told Boring about AMSOIL products. He
promised better gas mileage - an important selling
point with today's high gasoline prices - more
efficient performance and longer life.
The vehicle had 40,000 miles on it when Boring
installed AMSOIL products bumper to bumper.
"I did it all at one time, just to see the
difference," Boring said. He installed
AMSOIL Severe Gear 75W-140 Synthetic Gear Oil, used AMSOIL Engine
Flush and then installed AMSOIL 10W-40 Synthetic
High Performance Motor Oil and AMSOIL Universal
Automatic Transmission Fluid.
"I especially like the ATF," Boring said. "The truck
shifts smoother and the transmission is quiet. All
you hear is the tires on the ground. I've tried
other synthetics, lots of them. I just never saw any
difference. But, with AMSOIL, I saw a difference
right away."
The first tankful of gasoline increased his mileage
from 15 mpg to 20.5 mpg. "I swear I didn't believe
it," he said. "I'm averaging between 19 and 21 mpg
all the time.
"This stuff is awesome and I'm letting all my
friends know about it."
AMSOIL Customers Appreciate Greater MPG
Although results vary because of a variety of factors, a common
denominator among AMSOIL motor oil users is an improvement in fuel
economy.
Independent testing reveals that AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 motor oil
passes the API Energy Conservation Sequence VI test with a rating 38
percent higher than the API minimum specifications.
"The test results show that AMSOIL has the potential to save energy by
conserving fuel," said Technical Services Manager Ed Kellerman. "In most
cases it can increase mileage, but at the very least you're getting
superior engine protection."
Ralph Sites, a police officer in Rustburg, VA, said he put AMSOIL 10W-40
Synthetic Motorcycle Oil in his 2002 GL 1800 Honda Gold Wing when it had
4,550 miles on the engine.
"I had been getting 30 miles per gallon," Sites said. "I was supposed to
be getting 40 to 45 miles per gallon."
His first oil change to AMSOIL improved his mileage to 38 miles per
gallon. At 6,500 miles on the engine, after replacing the final drive
oil with AMSOIL Severe Gear 75W-90 Gear Lube, he improved to 40 miles
per gallon.
"I switched to AMSOIL for the long-term gain. The improved gas mileage
was just a bonus. AMSOIL is less expensive than Honda's synthetic and I
don't have to change it as often. It's a win-win situation."
He bought the bike new in January 2002 and had put 12,000 miles on it in
August. He said the improved mileage he's gotten since switching to
AMSOIL has saved him $102 just in gasoline.
Jeff Bailey in Fulton, Mo., said his 1996 Lexus GS300 with 81,000
miles on it also gained fuel efficiency when he switched to AMSOIL
motor oil.
"The car wants premium gasoline," he said. "I drive about 18,000 miles a
year. I ordered your synthetic product and absolutely astounded.
"I was used to getting about 20 mpg overall and having a little low-rev
torque."
Since switching to AMSOIL motor oil, Bailey gets 24 mpg and uses regular
gasoline.
"The engine feels even more flexible," he said. "I've used AMSOIL now
for my wife's anemic Camry 2.2 litre and have calculated that I have
saved about $120," he said. "Thanks AMSOIL for an awesome product. You
have a customer for life."
Likewise, Lance Okeson of St. Paul, Minn., gained miles per gallon after
switching to AMSOIL motor oil in his 1995 Cutlass Supreme.
Okeson made the switch after learning about AMSOIL from a customer of
his at a quick lube where he works. His customer was so enthusiastic
about AMSOIL, Okeson did some research on the AMSOIL Website and decided
to try the products. A trip from the Twin Cities to Fargo, N.D., in a
steady 17 mile-per-hour wind, and back showed him an increase from 24
mpg to 30.5 mpg.
"I have never gotten 30 plus mpg with that car," Okeson said. "I have
two other vehicles that I switched over to AMSOIL motor oil. One is a
4x4 and the other is an old muscle car. I switched the transmissions and
the differentials in those vehicles as well."
ASE Master Technician Sold on
AMSOIL
Mark Deschner, Friendswood, Texas,
is an ASE Master Technician and Manager of the West
Pear Land Tire & Auto Store.
He recently was able to demonstrate the superior
quality of AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants when he had
to change out a leaking intake manifold on his 1991
Chevrolet 1/2 ton pickup truck, with more than
183,000 miles on the original engine.
"When my lead technician took the intake manifold
off, for the first time ever, he couldn't believe
how clean the lifter valley and the top of the
cylinder heads were on my truck," Deschner said.
The technician thought Deschner may have changed it
before. But Deschner assured him he had never had
the intake off before.
"He always made fun of me for only changing the oil
once a year and the filter twice a year," Deschner
said. "I think that seeing how clean the intake and
cylinder heads are in my truck has changed his mind
about AMSOIL products. I've always believed in them
and my truck runs AMSOIL for all lubricant needs."
He uses AMSOIL 10W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil,
EAO24
Absolute Efficiency Oil Filter, TS31 2-Stage Air Filter,
GF111 Fuel Filter, 80W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube,
Universal Automatic Transmission Fluid, Synthetic
Multi-purpose Grease, P.I. Performance Gas Additive,
Rain Clear Windshield Protectant and Bosch
windshield wiper blades.
"As you can see, I have pretty much converted the
entire truck over to AMSOIL products," Deschner
said.
Preferred
Customer Sold on AMSOIL Quality
Peter Virgona of Merrick, N.Y. is a self-proclaimed
oil enthusiast.
“I do a great deal of reading and research, always
looking for the best
oil,” Virgona said. “The more I read the more I
realized AMSOIL was the
best ‘true’ synthetic I could buy. After using Mobil
1 since 1986, I made
the switch to AMSOIL.”
Virgona is a warehouse worker, but he has many years
of experience working
on cars.
He drives a 1999 Ford Crown Victoria that has nearly
98,000 miles on the
engine. He switched from Mobil 1 to
AMSOIL 5W-30
Synthetic Motor Oil (ASL).
“The difference was immediate and significant,”
Virgona said. “The idle
became much smoother. There are times I can’t tell
if the car is running.
It also became much more responsive to the gas
pedal, so much more
responsive my wife asked me what I did to the car.”
Virgona has owned the car for almost nine years.
“Not surprisingly, the gas
mileage improved significantly,” he said. “This car
always averaged 15
miles per gallon going back and forth from work. It
now averages 16.5 mpg.
That’s a 10 percent increase. I truly didn’t expect
such a big change.”
He waited to report his findings until after he had
driven the car at least
5,000 miles “to confirm that the numbers are average
and not just a fluke.”
Virgona also has installed Ea Air and
Oil Filters in
his vehicles.
He told his sister-in-law about AMSOIL and then
changed her oil over to
AMSOIL 5W-30. She drives a 1996 Dodge Caravan with a
3.0 litre V6 engine.
According to Virgona, she had always used
conventional motor oil with
regular oil changes every 3,000 miles.
“Nonetheless, she had a significant amount of sludge
that was obvious under
the oil fill cap,” he said. “She also experienced a
very loud lifter noise
that would come and go. Presumably, the sludge was
affecting the oil
circulation to the lifters.”
Oil consumption in the van was also increasing,
using about one quart every
1,500 to 2,000 miles.
“I switched the van to AMSOIL and put in a new
filter,” Virgona said.
“Within 1,000 miles the lifter noise was all but
gone. By 3,000 miles,
virtually all the sludge was gone. I drained and
refilled the oil a second
time with AMSOIL 5W-30. The oil consumption is now
down to one quart every
3,000 miles, with no more lifter noise.
“I am very happy with AMSOIL and plan to use it from
now on. I recommend it
to anyone who wants a great synthetic oil.”
Virgona buys his products through the AMSOIL
website. “I always get my
product within 48 hours,” he said. In fact, he just
had a case shipped to
his father in-law in Florida because he believes in
AMSOIL products and
wants others to experience their benefits. In fact,
he’s considering
becoming a Dealer.
Virgona respects that he can get detailed technical
information about
AMSOIL just by checking the website. “AMSOIL puts
out performance test
results for everyone to see. I definitely appreciate
that.
“People are usually very, very loyal to AMSOIL. They
know it’s the best.”
AMSOIL Gives
Life to a Sweet Old Cadillac. Making a skeptic into a believer again.
Dear AMSOIL,
I thought you
might appreciate hearing my AMSOIL story. When the opportunity arose
last year to purchase my mother-in-law's 1987 Cadillac DeVille, I jumped
at the chance. A true low mileage survivor, it was in near pristine
condition. I was proudly showing it off to a mechanic friend when he
said, "Uh-oh, you bought an HT-4100? Good luck buddy."
After much research I understood what he meant. The HT-4100 was rumored
to be one of the most troublesome engines Cadillac ever built. The
problems are numerous: an aluminum block with cast iron heads that
expand and contract at different rates causing premature head and intake
gasket failure, coolant loss into the oil, and finally main and rod
bearing failure. They also have a heavily loaded distributor gear, weak
timing gears, and sludging issues.
My first thought was, if ever an engine needed AMSOIL, it's this one. I
first heard about AMSOIL at the old Brohman Dragway in the late 1970s
from a fellow racer who swore by it. For the past 10 years, I've used
various synthetic oils with favorable results, but never AMSOIL. Then I
talked with Dave Mann, the AMSOIL Dealer in my home town, and told him
my story. Having spent 19 years as a lubrication specialist with Ford,
Dave knows his stuff. He made several recommendations, and shared with
me his excellent e-book on motor oils.
I also asked around at the Cadillac owners group I belong to, and almost
every one of them said, "Don't buy AMSOIL! It's too expensive and won't
do you any good. You need this or that oil with this or that additive,"
and so on. So who was I to believe?
Having spent over 25 years in advertising and marketing, I have a strong
skepticism for extravagant claims made by manufacturers. Usually, when
you hear impressive adjectives like "advanced" and "superior," someone
just wants your money or your vote (or both). So I read the science;
from AMSOIL and from several independent studies. I came to the
conclusion that it really is an excellent product. It also intrigued me
that one of the primary sales points made by AMSOIL is to convince you
to buy LESS of their product. That kind of marketing is contrary to
anything I've experienced, and elevates AMSOIL's credibility level
exponentially.
I switched the Cadillac over to AMSOIL 5W-30 (ASL) last fall, then put
in AMSOIL 10W-30 (ATM) this spring (even though it's not a turbo, I like
the extra wear protection offered by this formula). Rather than letting
the oil go a full year, I change it every six months, during which time
it accumulates about 6,000 miles. My dad was an auto mechanic and taught
the 3,000-mile oil change rule like it was the 11th commandment - that
kind of conditioning is hard to overcome. With this frequency, I still
spend less money than if I changed the oil on a three-month/3,000-mile
schedule. I use the money I save to have drain samples tested by an
independent lab each time.
The Deville now has 50,000 miles and runs like a fine Swiss watch. I
have not had a single problem with the 'troublesome' HT-4100 engine. It
runs roughly 10 degrees cooler than with regular oil, and my gas mileage
has increased by 10%. It has become my mission to get 200,000 miles from
this car. With AMSOIL, I might just make it.
As an addendum, I also recently switched my wife's 2003 Oldsmobile
Silhouette minivan to AMSOIL. Since we've owned it, this car has had a
lifter clatter for the first 10 seconds on cold starts. Literally, on
the first start after putting in AMSOIL, the clatter was gone.
Thanks AMSOIL. By making a superb product that truly does what you say
it will do, you've given new life to a sweet old Cadillac, and made a
believer out of this devout skeptic. (see

HDT Sets AMA Land Speed Record
with AMSOIL
Hayes Diversified Technologies (HDT), located in
Hesperia, California, produces diesel powered tactical military
motorcycles for the U.S. armed services as well as the UK and EU NATO
countries. Founded in 1961, the company originally manufactured
electro-mechanical switches and relays to the military & aerospace
industries.
The new HDT motorcycles are diesel machines combining both power and
environmentally friendly performance efficiency. We are talking about a
bike that gets 100 miles to the gallon AND can do 100 mph.
The HDT team was out on the Bonneville Salt Flats
earlier this month, striving to establish new national and world
records. Displaying the AMSOIL colors while going through the paces at
Bonneville, they offered up quite a number of very strong endorsements
with virtually no prompting. We noticed an increase in horsepower right
away when compared to Delvac 1,¯ said Fred Hayes, founder/CEO of HDT.
What was quite surprising was the condition of the engine after a
50-mile run-in and over 120 full-throttle dyno runs. The camshaft
bearings, the small and large end rod bearings, didn't even look like
they had been run. During that series of dyno runs, we registered the
highest horse-power and torque readings ever.¯
Dave Anderson, AMSOIL Technical Product Manager, had flown to Bonneville
to witness and participate in the pursuit of new land speed records.
Hayes said to Anderson, "Our testing proved that AMSOIL Series 3000
5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil provided better cam bearing lubrication,
better transmission operation and less blow-by than our previous oil. We
picked up just over one horse power at the rear well." This is a 3.7%
increase and worth a 1 tooth higher gear ratio. In addition, it appears
that overall coolant temperature was down about five degrees. That is
roughly a 2.5% decrease in operating temperatures.
Very few bikers would be opposed to increased horsepower with lower
operating temps, simply by switching over the lubricants.
With over a year of testing, we have found that AMSOIL products
continually outperform all other lubricants. AMSOIL provides improved
performance, increased fuel economy, lower oil consumption, and
significantly reduced engine wear in all operating conditions.
AMSOIL Boosts Bottom Line for
Grain Hauler
Burnell Keller of Castroville, Texas hauls a lot of
corn. Saving downtime and maintenance costs boost
his bottom line.
Since the 1960s, Keller Grain, Inc., at Castroville
has bought high quality white and yellow corn from
local farmers and trucked it to processing plants
across the state of Texas. "These trucks put on
about 12,000 miles a month," said Keller, the
company's owner.
He was running Exxon XD3-30 motor oil in his
Freightliner and changing it every 10,000 miles. He
heard AMSOIL products could cut his operating and
maintenance costs in half, provide better fuel
economy, easier starts and extended oil drains at
least three times longer than he was getting.
"We were fixing to extend the drain to 15,000
miles," Keller said. "But a sample of the Exxon
motor oil analyzed at 10,000 miles came back saying
the oil needed to be changed. I said, let's give
AMSOIL a whirl."
After an engine flush, Keller installed
AMSOIL
15W-40 Heavy Duty Diesel and Marine Oil in his
Freightliner, with more than 400,000 miles on the
engine.
"We did this procedure three times at a 15,000-mile
analysis and filter change only," Keller said. "Each
time the oil sample report came back saying the oil
was good for continued use."
After the third round of analysis, the oil was
changed. Keller plans to continue with 15,000-mile
analysis and filter changes and to continue to use
the same oil for an interval of 50,000 miles.
"That's about five times longer than before," Keller
said. "It's very good. Keller Grain is now convinced
that AMSOIL is a superior product and that anybody
can save money using AMSOIL products."
New Life for Dodge Ram
Preferred Customer Lyle Reinier from Mesa, Ariz. has
been using AMSOIL products for four years with complete satisfaction. He
said that when he started using them in his 2001 Dodge Ram they “changed
the way it ran.”
Now Reinier drives a 2004 Dodge Ram. He uses AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 in
the engine, AMSOIL Synthetic Universal Automatic Transmission Fluid
in
the transmission and 80W-140 Long Life Gear Lube.
“AMSOIL has given this truck life that it was hiding before,” said
Reinier. Reinier said the Ram now pulls stronger and runs smoother than
it did before. He made the switch to AMSOIL when the truck hit the
3,000-mile mark. “What comes as a surprise to me is that my Dodge dealer
had no problem doing a complete drain and fill with AMSOIL,” said
Reinier.
Reinier said the dealer removed all the Dodge transmission fluid and
refilled the truck with AMSOIL ATF. “Within a mile or two I could feel
the transmission was smoother and showed a difference in how it
performed,” said Reinier.
Reinier also uses AMSOIL in his dirt bikes. He and his wife have been
using AMSOIL 0W-40 Formula 4-Stroke since it was introduced. Within the
last year, Reinier performed a big bore and a valve job on their bikes
in search of more power.
“The insides of the cases, transmission gears and crank shafts were all
like brand-new,” said Reinier.
Reinier said the cylinder walls of each bike still
showed some cross hatching from the original bore. He also said the
bikes run quieter, smoother and cooler than they did before the switch
to AMSOIL. Both bikes have their original clutches and have logged over
4,000 trail miles.
Customer
Discovers a Burning Desire For AMSOIL
Dealer Mark Licht of Andover, N.J., was on a follow-up visit at Jimmy's
Service, Inc., of Hackettstown, N.J., when the integrity of AMSOIL ATF
was put to a new, on-the-spot test.
Licht showed shop owner Jimmy Naranjo several pieces of literature on
oil and ATF testing results. After listening to Licht talk about the
benefits of AMSOIL ATF, Naranjo turned to him and said, "You're full of
it."
Licht continued to explain all the features and benefits that
AMSOIL ATF
has to offer, but Naranjo interrupted and told him, "There is only one
way to prove this ATF is any good."
Naranjo went to his shelf and opened two brands of transmission fluid he
uses and poured some of each onto his metal workbench. The shop owner
than poured some AMSOIL ATF next to the other two brands. "I had no idea
what this guy was about to do," said Licht.
Naranjo then took out his torch and put the flame directly on the first
brand of transmission fluid he commonly used. After about 30 seconds the
little puddle of transmission fluid started smoking. Naranjo proceeded
to the second brand he stocked in his service shop and repeated the
process. After another 30 seconds, that brand of transmission fluid
began smoking badly.
"Now it's AMSOIL's turn and I must admit I thought my fluid was going to
smoke out just like the others with that direct flame," said Licht.
Naranjo held the flame on the AMSOIL ATF for over two and a half minutes
and there was absolutely no smoke.
"He quickly turned to me and said he'd take a 30-gallon and a 55-gallon
drum of the ATF," said Licht. "We couldn't believe our eyes!"
Now Jimmy's Service stocks the entire XL line of oils, all of the AMSOIL
25,000-mile oils, AMSOIL diesel oils and all of the AMSOIL diesel
additives. The shop also carries AMSOIL filters, 2-cycle oils, Power
Foam Engine Cleaner and Home Heating Fuel Extender.
CROSS COUNTRY TRIP PROVES AMSOIL PERFORMS
Owners of motorhomes, who often travel long distances, are particularly
concerned with finding ways to save on fuel costs.
A Texas man discovered AMSOIL motor oils and lubricants lived up to all
of his expectations in a journey from Texas to Alaska and back in 2004.
"I have a 1998 Dutch Star by Newmar 38-foot motorhome with a 300 horse
power Cat engine," said Shelby Rash, Richardson, Texas. "I also tow a
car behind." Throughout 2003,
Rash averaged 7.1 miles per gallon.
"I use AMSOIL products and believe in them," Rash said.
He took AMSOIL 15W-40 Heavy Duty Diesel and Marine Oil,
an AMSOIL oil
filter, Torque-Drive Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid,
AMSOIL
75W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube, AMSOIL Universal Automatic Transmission
Fluid, for power steering/hydraulics, and the AMSOIL Synthetic
Multi-Purpose Grease to a shop in Dallas in January 2004.
"They installed AMSOIL in everything, including the grease fittings,"
Rash said. "I installed a new AMSOIL air filter and oiled the front wet
axles myself. I filled up with diesel and added AMSOIL Cetane Boost and
Diesel Fuel Additive to the tank, as well."
Then Rash took his four-month, 11,000-mile trip.
"I used the two additives each time I filled," he said. "I also attended
two RV rallies where I 'dry-camped with a generator' for a total of 10
days during this time." The only thing he did was change the oil filter
during that time.
"I averaged 8.6 mpg since January 2004 for these 11,000 miles," Rash
said. "This sure helped with the high fuel prices. Just by changing to
AMSOIL I averaged 1.5 mpg better.
"Is AMSOIL worth a try? I think so."
From the President's Desk...
I was recently taking inventory of all the outstanding products we
manufacture when it occurred to me that some of our best products are
often the least promoted. Those would be our By-Pass Oil Filter Systems.
That's when I decided to tell you a little more about these incredibly
effective filters in my message this month and encourage you to install
one on your vehicle.
Have you seen one of these beautiful oil filters? There's really
nothing like them on the market today. The filter mounts are computer
machined anodized aluminum and produced to aircraft tolerances, meaning
they meet the most exacting fit and machining tolerances. Every part is
of the highest quality, built to provide many years of trouble-free
service. High flow porting, large diameter nuts and bolts with stainless
steel washers for secure mounting under the hood, reinforced hoses with
abrasion resistant covering, strong, easy connecting swivel hose-end
fittings, this filter mount is built to last!
Our Spin-On By-Pass Filter itself is simply the best oil filter made.
Where normal full flow filters take out the "nuts and bolts" in the
crankcase (25-40 microns), our by-pass filter removes sub-micron
particles down to one tenth of a micron. When you consider that most
engine wear occurs from dirt particles in the 5 micron to 20 micron
range, it's easy to understand why we say our filter eliminates the
cause of most engine wear.
With the AMSOIL By-Pass Filter installed, motor oil is kept
analytically clean and suitable for use over dramatically extended drain
intervals. As a matter of fact, many drivers may never need to change
oil again for as long as they own their vehicle! That may seem like a
strong statement, but the fact is synthetic oil does not wear out, it
just eventually becomes too contaminated for continued use. Keeping it
analytically clean extends its life indefinitely.
Most of you are familiar with Haywood Gray's 409,000-mile drain
interval using AMSOIL 15W-40 Diesel Oil and our By-Pass Oil Filter.
After going twenty times the drain interval recommended for his Mack
E7-400 diesel engine, his local Mack dealership disassembled his engine
and had the parts examined for wear by a certified engine rater. The
results were predictable as far as AMSOIL was concerned. Very light
wear, if any. In fact, many of the parts including the piston pins
showed no wear at all. All the parts could have been re-installed in the
engine for continued use. That's after 409,000 miles on one oil change!
How many people even drive their vehicles 409,000 miles? That's more
miles than many vehicles get on them in a lifetime of use. So when we
say never change oil again, for many drivers, that's exactly what we
mean! And consider this was a diesel engine. Diesels inherently produce
more combustion soot and solid contaminants for the oil to disperse and
the filter to remove. In all likelihood, if this had been a gasoline
engine, it could have been used much longer with similar results.
A few years ago, a state transportation department tested our By-Pass
Filter in some of their school busses. The test results confirmed the
fact that they would realize significant maintenance and labor savings
by using our filter in their entire fleet. Today, they insist our
By-Pass Filter be original equipment on all the new school busses they
purchase. They now have 1,500 busses equipped with our filters and the
number is growing as they add new busses. What a tremendous testimonial!
Our incredible oil filtration system is a product often overlooked by
our Dealers. I have heard some say that most people don't keep their
vehicle long enough to warrant using a by-pass oil filter. No matter how
long you keep a vehicle, it is very convenient not having to change oil.
And it adds value to a vehicle. I personally know of someone who had a
waiting list of people wanting to buy his car because they knew how well
he took care of it. That included his use of an AMSOIL By-Pass Oil
Filter and our synthetic oil.
The AMSOIL By-Pass Oil Filters are designed to be easy to install and
cost effective to use. All you have to do is look at one to realize the
quality built into it. If I were an AMSOIL Dealer, I wouldn't own a
vehicle without having one of these incredible filtration systems
installed. Then I could speak from experience about how well they work
and how cost effective they are to use.
Can you imagine the reaction you'll get when you look people in the eye
and tell them you never change the oil in your vehicle? Most people
won't believe you. But what a testimony it will be to the quality of
AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oil you sell and to the phenomenal filtering
capability of your AMSOIL By-Pass Filtration System!
