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 industry’s 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 world’s 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-a, ECF-2 • 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
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 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.
• Pre-2007 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) Modifications and Alterations – Engines operating under modified conditions
are excluded from extended drain recommendations. Examples
include the use of performance computer chips; non-OEM approved
exhaust, fuel or air induction systems and the use of fuels other than those
recommended for normal operation by the manufacturer.
(2) Mechanically sound engines are in good working condition and do not,
for example, leak oil or consume excessive amounts, are not worn out,
do not overheat, do not leak anti-freeze and have properly working
emission control systems. AMSOIL recommends repairing malfunctioning
engines prior to the installation of AMSOIL synthetic oils.
(3) Personal vehicles frequently traveling greater than 10 miles (16km) at a
time and not operating under severe service.
(4) Gasoline Engine Severe Service defined as turbo/supercharged engines,
commercial or fleet vehicles, excessive engine idling, first and subsequent
use of AMSOIL engine oil in vehicles with over 100,000 miles, daily
short trip driving less than 10 miles (16 km), frequent towing, plowing, hauling
or dusty condition driving.
Diesel Engine Severe Service defined as extensive engine idling, daily
short trip driving less than 10 miles (16 km), frequent towing, plowing,
hauling or dusty condition driving.
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.
