PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil (DEO) is the premium choice for
API CJ-4 emission-quality diesel oil required by model-year 2007
and newer diesel engines. It delivers extraordinary lubrication
in diesel engines found in commercial, fleet and personal
vehicles. Built with the latest additive and synthetic base oil
technology, AMSOIL Premium Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil exceeds the
higher performance demands of modern engines. It withstands the
stress of heat, soot and acids to help prevent deposits, wear and
corrosion. AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 is wax-free with a broad
viscosity range to provide exceptional cold-weather starting and
high temperature protection. It resists breakdown and offers
maximum fuel efficiency over extended drain intervals.
AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic
lubrication, produced the world’s first API-qualified
synthetic motor oil in 1972. Trust the extensive experience of
AMSOIL, The First in Synthetics,® to do the best job
protecting your engine.
Exceeds Emission System
Requirements
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil is a low-sulfated ash
formulation that exceeds the requirements for low-emission
quality diesel oil. It is compatible with all exhaust treatment
devices and is designed to extend the service life of diesel
particulate fi lters (DPF).
Extended Drain
Performance
AMSOIL Premium 5W-40 Diesel Oil can extend drain intervals far
beyond those recommended for conventional petroleum oils. Its
unique synthetic formulation and long-drain additive system (10.4
TBN) deliver superior engine protection, cleanliness and
performance over extended drain intervals. AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40
Diesel Oil provides
maximum protection for up to 3X the OEM-recommended drain
interval, and further with oil analysis.
Improves Fuel Economy
The advanced synthetic technology used to engineer AMSOIL Premium
5W-40 Diesel Oil enhances viscosity properties and is proven to
deliver better fuel economy. In fact, the Environmental
Protection Agency’s (EPA) Federal Test Procedure confirms
that AMSOIL 5W-40 Diesel Oil provides up to 3 percent better fuel
economy than conventional 15W-40 diesel oils.

conventional diesel oil. Does not include labor, filter or used
oil disposal costs, making AMSOIL even more cost effective.
Reduces Oil Consumption and
Emissions
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil has lower volatility (burn-off)
than conventional petroleum oils. Because less oil vapor passes
into the combustion chamber, oil consumption and emissions are
reduced. Lower volatility helps AMSOIL Premium Diesel Oil retain
its viscosity after high-temperature service for dependable
protection and excellent fuel economy.
Controls Soot-Thickening and
Wear
The advanced synthetic base oils in AMSOIL 5W-40 Diesel Oil are
naturally resistant to soot contamination. That, along with a
heavy fortification of detergent/dispersant additives, keeps soot
particles suspended independently, helping prevent the formation
of larger wear-causing particles. Viscosity increase is minimized
and soot-related wear is controlled.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Premium CJ-4 Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil is recommended for
diesel engines and, where appropriate, gasoline engines requiring
any of the following specifications:
• SAE 5W-40 • API CJ-4, CI-4+, CF,
SM
• ACEA E7, E9 • Mack EO-O Premium Plus
• DDC Power Guard 93K218
• Caterpillar ECF-3, ECF-2 • Cummins 20081
• Volvo VDS-4 • MB 228.31 • MTU Type I &
II
• MAN 3275 • JASO DH-2 • Global DHD-1
• Renault RLD-3
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil is compatible with conventional
and synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL motor oils with other
oils, however, will shorten the oil life expectancy and reduce
the performance benefits. AMSOIL does not support extended drain
intervals where oils have been mixed. Aftermarket oil additives
are not recommended for
use with AMSOIL motor oils.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Premium API CJ-4 Synthetic 5W-40 Diesel Oil is recommended
for extended drain intervals in engines that are unmodified and
in good operating condition.
Diesel Engine Service
• Three times (3X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed 50,000
miles/600 hours or one year, whichever comes first. Drain
intervals may be extended further with oil analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
• Two times (2X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed 15,000
miles or one year, whichever comes first.
*Operating conditions and drain intervals for
severe and normal service are defined by the OEM. Refer to your
owner’s manual.
Note: Extended drain intervals are not
recommended when using biofuels containing >10% ethanol or 5%
biodiesel (B5). Follow OEM drain intervals or extend drain
intervals with oil analysis.
