    I’ve been using Amsoil products for decades. Before I retired I changed my Signature Series oil at 15,000 mile intervals instead of 25,000 miles. The vehicles ran 200,000 miles and beyond with absolutely no problems, and never added a drop of oil between changes. All I can tell you is that oil is the cheapest mechanic you will ever pay. Use the best oil that you can buy!

    Been using Amsoil since my first brand new car. A 1973 olds cutlass supreme. I'm 73 now and still use it in my 2009 Ford explorer LTD. It just turned 269,00 miles. Did the tranny fluid last yr when it had 225000 miles. Runs like a new car. It's also in my 2015 Nissan Titan 4X my 2007 Honda rancher and my 2022 Husqvarna lawn tractor. The first synthetic oil I used was called ALL PROOF, which is now called RED LNE. Amsoil is just as good if not better and a lot cheaper. That's why I switched. This guy knows his stuff and I wish him the best! Oh and by the way , I went to work for the USPS in 1969 after HS graduation, and in 1977 I put in a suggestion that they run the Mail trucks on Amsoil products. They would'nt go for it they said because of Fairness to te other oil producers, which I'm convinced is BULLSHIT , Politics and the other crap that goes on with the Govt. contracts and kickbacks , no doubt was the REAL reason, Just like today with the $$ sent to the joo run countries like jookraine and israhell.

      Before GDI and low tension piston rings I used Supertech full synthetic 10w30 in 2 Dodge turbo cars, 15k OCI with a filter and top off at 7500. I had the Dodge 600 Turbo get an inter-cooler added, they insisted on a new head gasket. I asked how the insides looked, they said it was spot less. At that time I was 20,000 miles a year, that was in the late 80s and 90s. I drive less now, and the RDXs have warranties so it's every 6 months no matter what on 10w30 in the summer and 0w20 in the winter with what I get on sale.

    I’ve tried Royal Purple , Casteroil, and several other brands of oil, additives and grease. I also have sent oil analysis help with each of these products and Amsoil always beats them hands-down. like yourself, I watched project Farms oil tests, and that is what got me to try Amsoil. I changed both differential oil‘s and transfer case oil’s in my 2018 RAM and the words, a slight mileage increase along with a definite noticeable, feeling of smoothness in the drivetrain. After changing the transmission fluid to Amsoil as well it also helped improved my mileage along with smoother shifts. I now use Amsoil. I have everything that is mechanical that I own. Whether a lawnmower, chainsaw, and by the way, the bar oil is very good, to my mothers, 2006 trailblazer. She is 83, so why would I not want to make sure she has the best in order to stay safe!?

      Because people want oil for $29 per 5-quart bottle, I used Amsoil SS 0W-20 on my new 2024 Mazda with 0 miles since day one. I drive a lot daily and put many miles on it. I use my car for work, so it deserves the best oil. However, for people who only drive 30 minutes a day in an average car, there are other options available on the market.

    Everyone's different, but I use the Signature Series in my two Hemi engines, one I change just before winter storage in the fall , the other once in spring and once in fall, although now driving less that might change too. I found the Signature oils make my engines quiet, at least the first 1000 kms or so, and engine runs quite nicely. My other two Chev engines I now run Penzoil Ultra platinum (before ran Amsoil XL Oils) as they are older and less expensive and don't hold thier value, but still at minimum 6 month intervals. Frequent oil changes over the decades I've been doing it has saved me a lot of expensive engine repairs no doubt, as the old Fram add said, "Pay me now or Pay me later" held true. Amsoil is more expensive but still cheap insurance.

    From what I've read, group IV/V synthetics are supposed to be better at keeping their properties at high temperatures. So if you live In TX, AZ or anyplace that's hot more than cold, and you're forced to use 0w20, a group IV oil is a better choice. If you have options per your owners manual, a 10w30 or 10w40 is a better option in 40c temperatures. That 0w20 and lower, is our corrupt government in play, so were the low tension piston rings. Only true group IV I am aware of are Amsoil and Redline. I thought Triax and Shaeffers 9000 series also were, but I've seen other comments suspect otherwise.

Just use engine flush before changing the oil. Put flush in the oil fill hole and let it idle for 15 minutes then drain and do the oil change. Just be careful it will come out thin and really hot.

    Just replace your oil earlier a KISS method. (If you are after to keep the car for a long time and you care.)
    We can debate if whatever quality oil is better or worse than amsoil or not.
    But if we just for simplicity says booth is 100% synthetic (group IV).
    That they are then the "same" in the base stock of the oil then we have the additive packages.😅 (there are for sure others than just amsoil tjat use group IV base stock!)
    Yes, it is true that the printing "fully synthetic" is not a verification or certification. It is just marketing. But that don't mean that some of them are not 100% "man made" so the problem is just to find out which one is..😂
    So the catch is WHEN it is overpriced then we are indirect pushed towards longer drain interval..
    Otherwise no way to get some economy into that purchase like the guy in the video tells us that we actually "save" money.. 😮
    Then we need to follow the long drain interval regime ti be ABLE to save anything from our "oil investment"..😢😅
    And EVERYBODY knows that for each mile we get the oil more contaminated... We are grinding metal together and pit IN some dirt from the air and fule little by little plus combustion contaminents and so on.🎉
    When it is one of the oils basic work is to clean and keep dirt suspended in the oil by its design.🎉
    We know that oil filters is not filter out all dirt. We have fuel dilution try to filter that out, as just one example...😂
    Oh, now they sell flush 😂 wonder why..😂😂
    Yes, it is the ONLY way to get accumulated dirt out by taking the liquid out trough the drain hole!😅 (that is why they use flush.. We need ti remove the dirt out trugh the oil drain hole.)😂
    It do not matter what oil you got the accumulated dirt will be the same, each mile for that given specific engine and your driving style/conditions.😢🎉
    So in short don't waste time and money on oil analysis just to try to squeeze out maximum miles.. You will just be doing the "second best" thing.😂
    Just do little more frequent oil changes. And wolla you are doing a better job than the worlds best oil filter couldn't do!😂 by getting the dirt OUT from the engine!😅
    1. No need to analyze anything (save time and money)
    2. Never need to flush anything (save time and money)
    3. Better performance than using dirty amsoil for long drain interval that is analyzed and used until it is caput..😮
    Then there is also other stuff than just dirt but this got already to long if a rant.❤

    Amsoil is good but don't think that all of its products are the best. There are some store brands that perform just as good albeit not 100% synthetic. Currently, since ILSAC GF-6, the Signature Series oil is on par with Mobil 1 Extended Performance's film strength. I have a machine to test film strength and there are a few resources online that also do testing, so I'm giving you scientifically-backed insight into the facts and not just opinions. Anyone saying Signature Series or Amsoil is a scam is clearly ignorant. Just because you're a mechanic or know someone who is a mechanic doesn't mean you know the first thing about oil; being a mechanic doesn't make you a tribologist or scientist conducting real testing.

      Yes! Amsoil actually offers high mileage oil now. They recently released it. I would buy the High mileage oil and a bottle of flush for the first oil change then you will be good after that. It really depends on the mileage you out on the car and what kind of traffic you drive in. I wouldn’t go past 10k miles and check the oil level frequently.

    Amsoil is not magic. I have used it on some of my vehicles and it was fine. A few months back I tried Amsoil again and sent a sample in for testing. The results were the same as the other high quality oil I was using as far as wear metals go. The oil change interval only matters if you have no intention of keeping your car or could care less about the next owner. After the initial break in of your engine the wear metals will accumulate linearly mile by mile. If you consistently wait 10K or more, you will be asking for trouble. The oil properties may still be fine, but there will be a lot of extra stuff in there that will increase wear in of itself and if enough time passes, sludge.
    You mentioned, lower oil temperatures and higher oil pressures. That could be interesting. How much lower and how much higher?

    • @FABAutomotiveDetailing
      @FABAutomotiveDetailing  7 місяців тому +1

      Definitely not claiming it’s magic but Amsoil always does what they say it will.
      My old Ram I just sold with the Hemi would be around 275 oil temp when towing our camper when I first bought it with regular oil in it. When I switched to Amsoil it would consistently be around 240-245 when towing the same camper.
      As far as oil pressure is concerned both of my Rams with regular oil would stay around halfway on the gauge on acceleration. Unfortunately the gauges don’t show you pressure but once Amsoil was in them the gauge will go past half on acceleration compared to before. My guess would be 5-10 psi. I never put an oil pressure gauge on them to know for sure but I can see it on the factory gauge in the cluster.

    I have used "the best" of Mobil, Pennzoil and Valvolines in my many years of driving many cars. And I always come back to Amsoil. I bought a 2020 Kia Telluride 5 years ago and I tried the dealer oil (synthetic blend) and my car drove like crap. Went with Pennzoil Ultra and my Telluride rode like crap and also burned half of that oil. Then I went back to Amsoil and my Telluride rides like a new car, does not burn oil and just gives me that reliability I am looking for. I'm at 70k miles on my Telluride and still using Amsoil to this date.

      You'll be happy to know your Kia is wearing really well at 70,278 total miles. Universal averages for this type of V-6 show typical wear levels after nearly 5,300 miles of oil use. You went 7,880 miles on this oil and wear metals are in great shape. Iron is especially low. It's from steel parts and it tends to track with oil use. On a per-mile basis, iron is well below average (0.89 ppm/1K miles vs. an average of 1.89 ppm/1K miles) so steel parts are happy and healthy. The TBN was strong at 4.2 since 2.0 is low. Try 10K miles next time. All is well from what we see!

    The terms "Full Synthetic" and "100% Synthetic" are the same, and can be used interchangeably. What differentiates AMSOIL from other less expensive synthetic oils on the market is that AMSOIL uses only the best, highest performing base stocks and additives in their formulations, making it a better performing oil. With that performance comes a higher price tag. AMSOIL has always focused on formulating the best lubricants possible. It's never been the company's objective to formulate a low priced lubricant that barely meets industry standards. Cheap hamburger is 100% beef as is filet mignon...there's a huge difference, but they're both 100% (or Full) Beef. AMSOIL is the filet mignon of motor oils.

    • @edwardanderson2632

      All motor oils are comprised of base stocks and additives. Group 3, 4, and 5 base stocks are all synthetics, and oils which use them can be called Full or 100 percent synthetic. Synthetic blends include some amount of conventional base stocks and must be labeled as being a blend. As you know, AMSOIL recently introduced a synthetic blend themselves, but true to form it far outperforms other blends and many full synthetics out there
