Q.
Can I use AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 in my new 4-stroke snowmobile?
A. Absolutely! AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 was specifically
formulated for use in small, hard working 4-stroke engines. AFF is ideal
for 4-cycle snowmobiles, ATV's, personal watercraft, 4-stroke boat motors,
lawn equipment etc...
Q. Can I use AMSOIL AFF 0W-40 in my car or
truck?
A. AMSOIL AFF can most certainly be used
in cars or trucks but it is not our first choice for automotive applications.
We offer a full line of automotive oils. AFF is specifically formulated for small recreational 4-stroke
engines, and is an excellent choice for 4-Stroke outboards, ATVs, lawn
equipment, snow blowers etc…. |

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is specially formulated
for four-stroke recreational motors, including ATVs, outboard motors
and motorcycles. It may also be used in cars and trucks. Its broad viscosity
range makes it excellent for use in both hot and cold temperature extremes.
Resists High Temperature Vaporization
Conventional motor oils tend to vaporize and lose weight in high temperature
conditions, contributing to poor oil circulation, reduction in fuel
efficiency and excessive emissions and engine wear. AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke
Synthetic Motor Oil is highly resistant to evaporation. While conventional
petroleum oils thicken due to evaporation, AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic
Motor Oil maintains its viscosity in high temperature service. The superior
evaporation resistance of AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil
keeps engine wear, oil consumption and emissions to a minimum, while
keeping oil circulation efficient and fuel economy high.
Friction Modifier Free
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil contains no friction modifiers,
making it ideal for ATV, outboard motor and motorcycle engines. The
friction modifier free formulation of AMSOIL 4-Stroke ensures transmission
(manual or automatic) and clutch compatibility and prevents slip.
Performance Formulated
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil contains a robust dispersant/detergent
package, making it ideal for use in high-stress four-cycle engines.
The dispersant/detergent additive package effectively suspends harmful
combustion by-products and prevents deposits, keeping AMSOIL Formula
4-Stroke clean and serviceable.
High-temperature operations often lead to the thermal degradation and
oxidation of conventional oils, leading to the formation of deposits,
sludge and varnish. The superior oxidative and thermal stability of
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil inhibits the formation of
varnish, deposits and sludge so equipment runs clean in high-stress,
high temperature operations.
Temperature and Performance
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil has a broad viscosity range,
making it excellent for use in both hot and cold temperature extremes.
As an SAE 40 weight motor oil, AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke provides superior
protection for hot operating, hard working motors, while its SAE 0W
rating ensures easy cranking, excellent cold weather starting and quick
post-startup protection.
Copper Corrosion, Rust and Foam Inhibition
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil protects equipment from
copper corrosion and rust, even during equipment storage. AMSOIL Formula
4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil does not foam in service, protecting equipment
from the metal-to-metal contact and wear that occurs with use of foam-filled
fluids.

Applications and Recommendations
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil may be used in all applications
specifying 0W-40, 5W-30, 10W-30 and 10W-40 viscosity grades and is recommended
for applications specifying the following:
• API SJ, SH, SG, SF, CD, CF
• JASO MA
Use in Yamaha®, Suzuki®, Honda®, Mercury®, Kawasaki®, Arctic Cat®, Polaris®,
Nissan® and Bombardier® motors and transmissions. Safe in wet or dry sumps.
Recommended for manual or automatic clutches.
Compatibility
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is compatible with other four-stroke
fluids. However, a mixture of AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor
Oil and another oil may offer a shorter service life than pure AMSOIL
Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil.
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil is compatible with and recommended
for use with clutch plates in ATV’s and motorcycle transmissions.
Installation
Change AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Motor Oil according to manufacturer's
recommendations, without oil filtration. With oil filtration (AMSOIL SDF
Filter), up to 2 times longer than manufacturer's recommendations or 6
months, whichever comes first. If a Hastings or other filter is used,
filter should be changed at manufacturer's recommendations. |
