Series 3000 100%
Synthetic 5W-30 Diesel Oil
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Series 3000
100% Synthetic 5W-30 Diesel Oil (HDD) delivers extraordinary
lubrication in both diesel and gasoline engines found in
commercial, fleet and personal vehicles. By combining the
industrys premier synthetic technology with AMSOIL
premium additives, AMSOIL HDD exceeds the higher performance
demands of modern engines. It withstands the stress of higher
heat, higher acid levels and excessive soot loading found
in EGR equipped engines. AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30
Diesel Oil consistently outperforms conventional and synthetic
diesel oils for long-lasting performance and protection.
AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic
lubrication, produced the worlds 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.
EXTENDS DRAIN INTERVALS
AMSOIL HDD can extend drain intervals far
beyond those recommended for conventional oils. Its unique
synthetic formulation and long drain additive system deliver
the best possible engine protection, cleanliness and performance
over extended drain intervals, reducing vehicle maintenance
and waste oil disposal costs.
MAXIMIZES FUEL ECONOMY
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel
Oil is energy efficient for reduced fuel costs. Its low
viscosity minimizes drag associated with high
viscosity oils, allowing the engine to operate more freely,
maximizing power and fuel economy.
UNSURPASSED PROTECTION AGAINST ENGINE
WEAR
In the Four-Ball Wear Test (ASTM D-4172B)
AMSOIL HDD demonstrated better anti-wear performance than
competitive petroleum and synthetic oils. Even under high
temperatures and pressures, its superior film strength and
anti-wear additives help prevent metal-to-metal contact.
AMSOIL HDD reduces ring wear, cylinder bore polishing, oil
consumption and valve train wear for improved engine life
and lower maintenance costs.

CONTROLS SOOT THICKENING AND WEAR
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel
Oil is heavily fortified with detergent/dispersant additives
and is naturally resistant to soot. It keeps soot particles
suspended independently, preventing them from attaching
together to form larger, wear-causing particles. Viscosity
increase is minimized and soot related wear is controlled.
REDUCES OIL CONSUMPTION AND EMISSIONS
AMSOIL HDD loses only 6.7% of its mass
to high temperature volatility (evaporation) in the NOACK
test, outperforming all conventional oils. Because less
oil vapor passes into the combustion chamber, oil consumption
and emissions are reduced. Additionally, lower volatility
helps AMSOIL HDD retain its viscosity after high temperature
service for continued dependable protection and excellent
fuel economy.
EXCELS IN EXTREME TEMPERATURES
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel
Oil resists thermal (heat) breakdown, oxidation and sludge
formation better than conventional oils. And unlike conventional
petroleum oils, AMSOIL HDD contains no wax. It stays fluid
down to -60°F for improved cold temperature oil flow,
reduced bearing wear and easier starting.
APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel
Oil is recommended for diesel engines and other applications
requiring any of the listed worldwide specifications and
gasoline engines requiring API SL, SJ, SH . . . or ACEA
A3.
- API CI-4+, CF, CF-2, SL
- ACEA A3/B3, E2, E3, E5
- Global DHD-1
- JASO DH-1
- Mack EO-N Premium Plus 03
- DDC Power Guard 93K214
- Caterpillar ECF-1
- Cummins CES 20071, 20072, 20076, 20077, 20078
- Volvo VDS-2, VDS-3
- MB 228.1, 228.3, 229.1
- MAN 3275
- MTU Type 1
- MIL-PRF-2104G
- Allison C-4
AMSOIL HDD 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 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel
Oil is recommended for extended drain intervals in unmodified(1),
mechanically sound(2) vehicles or equipment as follows:
Personal Light Truck Diesel or
Gasoline Engine Service
Normal Service(3) Up to 25,000 miles or
one year, whichever comes first, or longer based on oil
analysis.
Severe Service(4) Up to 15,000 miles or
one year, whichever comes first, or longer based on oil
analysis.
Replace AMSOIL Ea full flow oil filter or
Donaldson Endurance ELF 7349 at the time of oil
change up to 25,000 miles (other brands at standard OEM*
intervals). Commercial or Fleet Vehicles, Long-Haul Trucks,
Marine Craft, RV, Off-Road Equipment
Non-EGR equipped diesels extend drain intervals
up to two times (2X) the OEM* recommended drain interval
or one year, whichever comes first, or longer based on
oil analysis.
EGR equipped or low emission diesels extend
drain intervals based on oil analysis or use the OEM*
recommended interval.
Replace Donaldson Endurance or AMSOIL Ea
full flow oil filters at the time of oil change up to
two times (2X) longer than the OEM* standard interval,
not to exceed 60,000 miles in long-haul trucks.
*OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer
(1) Where the engine or operating conditions
have been modified from the original manufacturers
design, no oil change interval recommendation is made. Oil
change intervals are at the owners discretion. Examples
include the use of performance computer chips; modified
exhaust, fuel or air induction systems and the use of fuels
other than those recommended for normal operation by the
manufacturers.
(2) Engines are in good working condition
and within the factory design settings. Mechanically sound
engines, for example, do not leak oil or consume excessive
amounts, are not worn out, do not overheat, do not have
internal or external anti-freeze leaks and have a properly
working emission control system. AMSOIL recommends repairs
be made to malfunctioning engines prior to the installation
of AMSOIL synthetic oils.
(3) Personal transportation vehicles frequently
traveling greater than 10 miles at a time and not operating
under severe service.
(4) Diesel and gasoline engines
commercial or fleet vehicles, extensive engine idling, daily
short trip driving less than 10 miles (16 km), frequent
towing, plowing or hauling heavy loads, frequent driving
in dusty conditions. Also, first and subsequent use of AMSOIL
engine oil in gasoline engines with 100,000 miles or greater
and turbo/supercharged gasoline engines.
AMSOIL Ea and Donaldson Endurance
full flow oil filters are designed for extended drain intervals.
They stop smaller particles, have less restriction and last
longer than regular filters. For best performance, use AMSOIL
Ea or Donaldson Endurance oil filters. Oil Analyzers
Inc., 715-395-0222, is a division of AMSOIL that provides
cost effective, quality oil analysis services.
