Five Reasons People Pay Premium for a Quart of Oil
1. Peace of Mind
All-season AMSOIL synthetic motor oils help cars start and run dependably in the temperature extremes of northern winters and deep-south summers. Long-term, AMSOIL synthetic motor oils’ superior cold temperature fluidity, high-temperature stability and oxidation stability keep cars running dependably longer, too, by reducing the wear incurred during cold starts and under-protected high-temperature operations and by keeping engines virtually free of oxidation products such as sludge and acids, which are harmful to the engine. Not only do AMSOIL synthetic motor oils enhance engine life, the oil itself also provides dependable long-term service-perfect for those who may not service their car regularly.

2. Saves Money
Because AMSOIL synthetic lubricants are molecularly smoother than conventional oils, they create less friction in the engine. With less friction in the engine, less engine power (which comes from fuel) is wasted overcoming friction. That means better fuel economy – more miles to the gallon. Because their synthetic base stocks resist oxidation and thermal damage longer than conventional oils, and because they are formulated with long-life motor oil additives, AMSOIL synthetic motor oils may be used for longer drain intervals than conventional lubes. In fact, extended drain intervals actually offset the higher purchase price of the oil and motorists end up paying less annually to lubricate their engine with AMSOIL motor oils than with conventional oils. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils extend a vehicle’s period of “like-new” performance. For those who keep their cars as long as they run dependably, the performance gain sometimes equals years of extra service. For those who trade their cars on a schedule, the superior engine cleanliness and low wear may translate into higher trade-in value.
3. Performance
By creating less friction in the engine than conventional oils, AMSOIL synthetic motor oils help engines deliver more horsepower, which increases top-end speed and responsiveness throughout the speed range. Additionally, as petroleum oil ages, new means of increasing friction develop. For example, oil volatility and oil oxidation both thicken oil, which increases its internal friction and hampers performance. Oxidation also changes oil chemically, forming sludge, varnish and acids. Sludge and varnish impede free component movement while acids degrade component tolerances and encourage sloppy component performance. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils’ thermal and oxidative stability make them highly resistant to volatility and oxidation, so they maintain their high-performance viscosities – and “like-new” performance – long term.

4. Solves Problems
Synthetic lubricants often help hot-running engines and other equipment run closer to their optimal temperature range than conventional lubes, and that can spell the difference between safe operation and failure in high-stress conditions such as racing. Friction-producing oils are heat-producing oils, which means conventional oils are bigger heat-producers than AMSOIL synthetic oils. Additionally, conventional oils are less efficient in removing heat from component surfaces than their AMSOIL counterparts because of differences in the way the oils flow. Conventional oils flow in layers (laminar flow) along component surfaces. Heat isn’t exchanged readily between layers. Synthetic oils flow in a turbulent pattern that moves heat readily into the oil stream and away from component surfaces.
5. Convenience
AMSOIL synthetic lubricants are formulated specifically for long life. For example, AMSOIL 100% Synthetic High Performance Motor Oils may be used for 25,000-mile/one-year (whichever comes first) drain intervals. AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils may be used for up to 10,000-mile/six-month (whichever comes first) drain intervals, or longer when recommended in owners’ manuals or indicated by electronic oil life monitoring systems. AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oils may be used for the drain interval given in vehicle owners’ manuals. The synthetic base stocks used in AMSOIL lubes are highly resistant to thermal and oxidative damage. Thermal and oxidative damage are two of the major processes that spell the end for conventional lubes.
Other major processes that require a lube to be replaced are changes in or depletion of the additive package. For example, some additives used to increase viscosity during high-temperature operations actually lose their ability to do so through the shearing action normal to an operating engine. Likewise, additives used for keeping acids in check are used up over time. Conventional lubricants are formulated for drain intervals of 3,000 to 7,500 miles. Base stock degradation and additive changes or depletion both occur shortly after that point. While long-life additives are available, conventional oil manufacturers would be wasting their money to put those higher-quality, more expensive additives into conventional base stocks.
AMSOIL, on the other hand, uses the high-quality long-life additives that allow the synthetic base stock to realize its long life potential.
