Why are AMSOIL synthetic motor oils good for extended drain intervals?
It’s all in the formulation. Because AMSOIL is made with synthetic basestocks, it resists thermal and oxidative breakdown, which suits it for extended drain use. AMSOIL pairs top-quality long-life synthetic basestocks with top-quality long-life additives. The fact is, other oil companies don’t use the quality additives AMSOIL uses because it simply doesn’t pay to pair long-life additives with short-lived conventional basestocks. Carefully controlled demonstrations conducted jointly between AMSOIL and various car fleets have proven the safety and effectiveness of the 25,000 mile AMSOIL drain interval. In fact, many entities with which AMSOIL has conducted demonstrations have used the oil for significantly longer drain intervals and still been rewarded with lower rates of engine wear than they were with conventional lubricants and conventional oil drain intervals. Remember — AMSOIL synthetic lubricants may be used for extended drain intervals, but they don’t have to be.
