What is the best motor oil to use in my car and how often should I change it? What is the best brand of oil filter?
In a recent Lubricants World Magazine interview the president of a major national quick lube chain (which is owned by a major petroleum oil company) states that if they can get customers to shorten their drain intervals by 100 miles it would mean an additional $20 million in revenue for the company per year and if they can get consumers to do one more oil change per year it would mean $294 million for the oil change alone and $441 million in revenue when they include ancillary products and services that go along with the oil change. In fact, the president of the quick lube chain openly admits that the bottom line is profits. The shorter the drain interval the more money the quick lube makes. It is our opinion that they would be more profitable by promoting and installing AMSOIL 25,000 mile/1-year or 35,000 mile/1-year extended drain interval synthetic oil. It appears that the short drain interval petroleum oils they promote are good at assuring that customers will be back for another oil change in a relatively short period of time
Isn’t it about time you learned the facts? And don’t think that vehicle and equipment manufacturers and other oil companies don’t know about AMSOIL. Most have tested and analyzed it, and in fact, many automotive mechanical and lubrication engineers that we work with use it in their own vehicles but still refuse to acknowledge to the public that AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants are superior to petroleum oils and other brands of synthetic lubricants.

Mobil 1 Extended Performance vs. AMSOIL
Independent ASTM Certified Laboratory Testing of the new Mobil 1 Extended Performance vs. AMSOIL (and nine other major brand name motor oils) has been completed. AMSOIL is the clear winner.
Mobil 1 EP Evaporates 38% Faster Than AMSOIL, Mobil 1 EP Allows 18% More
Cold Start Friction and Mobil 1 EP Allows 22% MORE Wear
In addition, on the TFOUT test, the "Thin Film Oxygen Uptake Test" (ASTM D-
4742), which provides a very good correlation to the drain interval
capability of an oil, AMSOIL passed the 500 minute cut-off mark with flying
colors and still going strong, while Mobil 1 Extended Performance fell
short at only 469 minutes. Once again, we say that Mobil 1 is a good
quality product, however it does not compare to AMSOIL and the test data
clearly shows this.
AMSOIL offers superior wear protection, easier cold starting, less high
temperature evaporation and longer guaranteed drain intervals of 25,000
miles/1-year (or 35,000 miles 1-year with the AMSOIL Severe Service 0W-30).
Plus at Preferred Customer pricing you can have AMSOIL shipped direct to
your door for about the same pricing as you’ll pay for Mobil 1 Extended
Performance at the store.
AMSOIL also offers 25,000 mile/1-year Absolute Efficiency Ea Oil Filters to
compliment the AMSOIL 25,000 mile/1-year, or 35,000 mile1-year line of
synthetic motor oils. Visit http://www.wolfesynthetics.com
AMSOIL is proven to be the best! AMSOIL was, and still is, the "First in Synthetics". All other synthetic motor oils were Johnny-come-latelies. This is a fact that not a single other oil company will dispute.
In fact until recently many of these manufacturers never had a synthetic (except Mobil1). They were too busy trying to debunk the benefits of synthetics to the average consumer! Now, technology, competition and consumer demand has forced every major oil manufacturer to have a synthetic, and they are now also claiming the same benefits that at one time they were trying to debunk, but yet not a single one even comes close to offering the protection and performance that AMSOIL does.
CASTROL AND MOBIL BATTLE IT OUT:
Recently, Mobil accused Castrol of reformulating its synthetic by substituting other basestocks in place of its synthetic polyaphaolefins (PAO’s). Castrol Syntec is a hydrocracked oil. That’s right, Castrol has replaced the PAO synthetic base stock with hydroisomerized petroleum base stock. Hydrocracking, as it’s called, is the highest level of petroleum refining. Castrol isn’t even a true synthetic yet Castrol ended up winning the battle when the National Advertising Division of the Council of Better Business Bureaus ruled that Castrol could still market its oil as "synthetic" despite their new formulation. Basically, they expanded the definition of synthetics to include Group III hydroprocessed petroleum oil. This high profile case took place because synthetics are recognized as the market’s best hope for growth. Synthetic oil sales have outpaced petroleum oil sales by a wide margin and the gap continues to widen every year. Consumers are getting smarter and demand the best for their vehicles! Read the full story on the Castrol debacle in our informative articles section. Additionally, just as soon as Castrol won this battle, several other oil companies came up with hydroprocessed motor oils of their own and labeled these products to be "100% synthetic", when they still are primarily Group 3 hydroprocessed petroleum oils and not Group 4 PAO synthetics.
