"Fabulous" Fuel Economy |

The independent test facility that conducted the Sequence VI Engine Test for fuel economy on AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil said, "You'll NEVER pass the test with that shear stable viscosity index improver in your formulation. It CAN'T be done!" |

 Unbeatable
wear protection and unbeatable fuel economy. Who says it can't be done?"Most oil manufacturers use a quick shearing viscosity index improver that helps their oil pass the test by allowing its viscosity to drop," said the lab rep. "When the viscosity drops, intrafluid friction drops and fuel economy rises. But wear protection also drops. Of course, wear protection isn't a concern in the Sequence VI test. Fuel economy is the only concern. AMSOIL insisted on using a shear stable viscosity index improver - it was, after all, part and parcel of the oil's formulation. After testing, the independent test facility changed its tune. "The AMSOIL 0W-30 had a fabulous EC-II pass in the Sequence VI," remarked the tester in an interoffice memo. In fact, it was the highest Sequence VI score ever recorded by the facility. Field Results Supportive - Reports from the field indicate that Series 2000 consistently gives users a fuel economy increase, with increases varying between 4 and 40 percent. Many users also report their fuel economy continues to increase for an extended period after installation of Series 2000. For example, the user who reported an increase in mileage from 18 mpg to 21 (See table below) also reported that his mileage increased to 23, then to 25 mpg with successive fuel fills. In fact, the sheer number of unsolicited reports of increased fuel economy suggest that Series 2000 makes a very real difference. No Compromise on Wear Protection - Reports
from the field also consistently show the oil has outstanding friction
reduction characteristics. Not only are users reporting fuel economy
gains, they are also reporting their cars run quieter and more
responsively. Some have also reported they've had to reduce their engine
idle speed. Friction, of course, is a wear mechanism. Series 2000's
ability to reduce friction indicates an ability to also reduce the rate
of engine wear. Indeed, Four Ball Wear Testing bears out the assumption.
Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil shows up to two times better wear
protection than other top selling oils do. Finally, the friction
reducing ability of Series 2000 increases with time. That's the crucial
difference between Series 2000 and conventional fuel efficient oils. |

| Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30
Applications- Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil is formulated
for use in passenger cars and light trucks and makes a perfect
replacement for 5W-30 and 10W-30 motor oils, including new vehicles
under warranty. Users from all regions  have reported success with the oil. However, as a
0W-30, it offers users in cold regions an added benefit in cold
temperature starting and cold temperature engine protection.
Finally, Cale Yarborough Motorsports, the NASCAR team spearheaded by the legendary racer, uses AMSOIL Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil to qualify for all the races of the 1996 Winston Cup, the ultimate tour of the NASCAR circuit. That's pretty tough service for an oil. Good thing they use Series 2000! |
