• Change to a 160-degree Thermostat - In order to meet EPA fuel economy and emissions, vehicle manufacturers are forced to run engines hot with oil and coolant temperatures in excess of 200+ degrees. One of the problems with this is that most engine heads are made of aluminum which expands much more than cast iron. By increasing the temperature range of the engine from cold to hot, and ultimately the amount of aluminum expansion and contraction, there is a significant increase in the chances of blowing a head gasket over time. Please note that this change may reduce fuel economy slightly.
• Use Synthetic Transmission Fluid in Automatics - High transmission temperatures can greatly impact the longevity of automatic transmissions, particularly the internal clutches. A synthetic transmission fluid can provide better protection and lubrication at higher temperatures without breaking down, which is especially important if you do lots of towing or hauling. Synthetic transmission fluids also reduce friction of internal valves and solenoids providing better shifting performance. It can also improve fuel mileage slightly.
• Get Your Vehicle Professionally Tuned or DIY - Factory ECM (Engine control management) settings are often times very conservative in terms of ignition timing advance, and AFRs (air-fuel ratios) at WOT (wide-open throttle). This is especially important if you have added or are planning to add a higher-flowing air intake system. We have found that some vehicles are severely de-tuned from the factory at the higher airflow rates beyond what the OEM air system flows. This is why some people have experienced decreased performance when adding a cold-air intake system to their vehicle. The ECM will actually retard the ignition timing at the higher air-flow rates, thus reducing engine power significantly at full throttle. Please note that high-performance cars are usually better tuned from the factory and may not see as much gains. For GM vehicles, we use HPTuners available at www.hptuners.com.
• Use Fuel Injection Cleaner Periodically - We recommend using fuel injection cleaner quarterly (once every 3 months) to help maintain your fuel system. We hate to brag, but AMSOIL's P.I. Performance Improver gasoline additive is an amazing product. It's about the only product we've ever used that provides a noticeable increase in performance and fuel mileage when added to a tank of fuel. Be sure to try it out with your next oil change. If you're really tuned in to your car, we think you'll be impressed.
• Clean/Inspect Your Air Filter - A reduction in air-flow through your air filter will reduce engine power, and require more engine throttle to achieve/maintain your speed, thus reducing fuel economy and performance.
• Inflate Your Tires - We know you've been told a thousand times to do this, but it is still very important for fuel economy and safety.
• Change Your Fuel Filter - We recommend changing your fuel filter annually. Any reduction to fuel pressure can reduce your fuel injectors performance and ability to atomize the fuel optimally. Increased backpressure can also shorten the life of your fuel pump. We also recommend keeping at least a quarter-tank or more in your fuel tank. The fuel in your gas tank is what keeps your electric fuel pump cool.
• Accelerate/Decelerate Gradually - For maximum fuel economy, this does help.
• Tailgating - We don't recommend tailgating, but there are significant gains in fuel economy by following other vehicles. Some studies using computer controlled vehicles following extremely closely to one another have shown gains of 30+ %.

• AMSOIL Introduces 15,000 Mile Ea Oil Filters including reintroduction of Ea Oil Filters for popular Toyota applications

  The OEMs are continually trying to increase efficiency and decrease emissions, but a huge majority of the techniques used negatively impact motor oil and oil filtration. The motor oil faces more contaminants, which then causes the oil filter to reach capacity sooner. As a result, some filters on certain models (due to sludge problems, etc.) can't safely last 25,000 miles which is what led to the development of the 15,000 mile filters.

• AMSOIL Introduces OE Synthetic Motor Oils

  

  AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oils are designed as an entry-level product for customers who want synthetic quality, but don’t want to pay a significantly higher price than a conventional product and/or aren’t initially interested in extending their drain intervals. Priced competitively with other standard-drain synthetic motor oils, AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oils offer the protection and performance benefits of a high-quality synthetic for OEM-recommended drain intervals.

• AMSOIL Quickshot SE Wins Best New Powersports Product at SEMA

  Over 2,000 new products were submitted for consideration of this distinctive honor in 15 different categories, and judges were looking for superiority of innovation, technical achievement, quality, consumer appeal and marketability in their search for the winners. With Dave McClelland of Hot Rod TV and the Voice of SEMA leading the awards program, AMSOIL Quickshot SE (AQS) was announced as the winner of the Best New Powersports Product Award.

• AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils Reformulated

  

  AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils have been reformulated to last longer in service and meet the more stringent ILSAC GF-5 and API SN service categories. Available in four different viscosities, XL Synthetic Motor Oils are recommended for up to 10,000 miles or six months of service, whichever comes first, or longer when recommended in owners’ manuals or indicated by electronic oil life monitoring systems.

• Testing Shows 16 Percent of Oils Fail API SM Specification

  According to the Institute of Materials (IOM), testing shows that 16 percent of the 250 off-the-shelf motor oils that claim to meet the API SM specification do not. According to the IOM general manager in Midland, Mich., 40 motor oils failed at least one of the specification limits. They also gather samples from the marketplace and do testing, but are still seeing oils that are off-spec which carry the ILSAC and API marks on the labels.
  
  AMSOIL synthetic motor oils meet or exceed minimum API SM specifications, and the company’s rigorous quality control program ensures each quart delivers superior protection and performance.

• New AMSOIL Dominator® Coolant Boost Provides Effective Heat Transfer and Enhanced Corrosion Protection

  Racers demand lower engine operating temperatures in order to achieve maximum efficiency and horsepower on the track, while the straight water coolant used by many racers opens engines up to damaging radiator and water pump corrosion. New AMSOIL Dominator® Coolant Boost (RDCB) provides racers and motorists with significantly lower engine operating temperatures, quicker engine warm-up times and advanced corrosion protection.

• Engine Oil Treatments Containing Chlorine Prove Corrosive

  Aftermarket engine oil supplements are “treatments” advertised to enhance an oil’s properties. Manufacturers claim these treatments reduce friction, noise and wear; maintain higher lubricity and break down sludge and varnish, protecting the engine components. However, the use of aftermarket engine oil supplements that contain chlorine can cause corrosive wear to a vehicle’s engine and possible subsequent engine failure. AMSOIL INC. recently initiated an independent lab study to determine if four engine treatment products contained chlorinated ingredients, and if so, how much each contained...Read More
