I always believed that all oil was the same until about 18 years ago. I was at a buddy’s mechanic shop and he had a motor job on a a Ford super duty pick up truck. This truck had 315,000 miles on it and was in for a leaking intake manifold or something. When he pulled the intake and valve covers off everything looked brand new. We were both amazed and were astounded by the cleanliness of this engine. When the owner showed up to pick up his truck we asked him what oil he was using. When he said Amsoil both of us went and got our own Amsoil accounts. To this day I run Amsoil engine oil, trans fluid and differential fluid. I’m pushing 422,000 miles now and my truck runs as good as it did when it was new. I would love to get a new truck but my truck runs so good that I decided to fix the rust, paint it and keep her going. I also installed an Amsoil bypass oil filter about 12 years ago so now I change my oil every 25-30,000 miles.

And because of Mr Banks himself, I look forward to using Amsoil products in not just my diesel, but my other gas and two stroke engines!

I use it not only in the engine but in the gearbox/transaxle as well where applicable. Their customer service is always there to make a recommendation based on what is best product for each vehicle and if they don't offer anything that meets or exceeds the manufacturers recommended fluids they always tell me.

I worked in a diesel engine lab doing this type of testing, seeing how the oil responds to soot creation by changing timing, vgt and egr. Keeping everything in parameters and how the different oils and additives did in with the different engines.

I use to race snowmobiles back in the 80's and I used Ams Oil. We run 2 cycle engines and was getting 114 hp with a 340cc Rotax engine. We run them engines ar 12000 rpm and run 100 to 1 mixture. We never had a engine failure due to oil. The only failure we had was running the engine a little on the lean side. Our mistake by jetting the carbs a little to lean trying to grab a little more power. When we took the engines apart there was a surprising amount of oil in the crankcase. I have never seen this before with other 2 cycle engine oil. Ams Oil was far ahead and better then anyone else in the business that we used back then.

Another very informative video. A bit of an advertorial maybe, but I don't begrudge that considering the information it gives. Once again Kudos to Amsoil for giving us a pretty good look behind the doors at what they do to keep their edge. I did see Amsoil kicking goals on another KZbin site which validated the cold flow especially but also when the oil had been cooked, it still flowed better than the competitor's new oil. Not big for me in Australia as we hardly go below freezing in Adelaide but those snow caked cars definitely need free flowing oil in winter time.

50 + years ago Smokey Yunick did an oil test article in Popular Science Magazine. He was testing a home brewed synthetic oil made by a chemist (?) some where in Wisconsin. The oil was called All Proof 5w -50, packaged in round metal cans. His test engine was 300 hp 302 Chevy. He tested with conventional oil, then synthetic oil and back to conventional oil. He checked valves and whatever between tests to maintain an accurate comparison. His results were a gain of 20 hp and a 20 degree drop in oil temperature. I called Smokey and ordered the oil for a twin engine boat with 2 modified 302 Fords with 7 Qt oil pans. Boat also had Oil temperature gauges. I picked up almost 100 Rpm and oil temp dropped 15-20 degrees. 100rpm was a measurable speed increase. The oil was $5 a qt. When I called sometime later to order more oil he said the formula changed and he didn't like it and and couldn't supply me. Just talking to Smokey on the phone a few times made the transaction very informative. He was brutally honest with his answers. I wonder if this oil had a connection with Amsoil.

I you wanted money, you worked for a neighbor who needed hay put up, field plowed, cattle moved 6 miles down a county road as few had help, part time, full time help. It was just all on the farmer and most could make it work, but sadly some couldn’t take it. But we had Amsoil salesman show up, like an implement dealer with the latest plow. Boss told me to run the plow and report. If I gave 3,4,5 reasons for now liking the plow, boss told him to leave. The one thing I remember was the Amsoil rep. Local, knew the name but did it part time. They were unsure of how to point out things because they forgot, we’re not that good but remember, public speaking is the hardest thing or phobia for most. Looking back on a career of fixing cars, then later teaching and holding tech seminars, if you lived to product, knew it inside and out, the became better. I honestly feel sorry for those who tried but gave up. DK, ASE master tech since 78. Raytheon contract labor for GM/ACDelco. No school, no tech college but apprenticeship only.

Do they ACTUALLY test to all of those specs and just choose not to pay licensing fees to the OEs that make them?

I saw a rep from amsoil answer that saying that it does meet dexos standards, and that basically they didn't want to pay for licensing. Considering the price of amsoil it wouldn't be much added but they seemed adamant about not paying it. Problem is some dealers were saying that amsoil would void the factory warranty if you had a engine failure.

You can buy an engine pre-lube system that will force oil out through the passage ways. It comes on automatically when you turn the key. This way if the engine has been just sitting and not running for a while, it is not running dry for the first few seconds. That is where a big part of the engine wear comes from.

Just came across this and it is intense how much they torture the motor and oil. One question I have is does the horsepower and torque go up or down at the end of the test with motor breaking in/down after 50 hours plus with the oil breaking down?

[@2down4up]

I’m curious as to why they used such a relatively mild engine for that dyno oil test. 300HP ain’t a whole lot and an engine of the same size but outputting 500HP would exert much more stress on the internal components and thus the oil. Is there something I’m missing here as to why they used that particular power combo?

[@puzzleluvr]

I'd assume because it's cheap and easy to get parts for. Also I'd imagine a lot of grassroots racing still uses it as the motor of choice for the same reasons.

[@2down4up]

@@puzzleluvr Perhaps that’s true, you certainly make some valid points. I’m unfamiliar with most grassroots racing so maybe this is the typical power level of some grassroots series. But for sure the higher levels of competition make much more power out of equivalent or even smaller engines and I’m sure they may use Amsoil too.

Much better to try one of these little 2 liters that are pumping out 300 hp with turbos. Running intense heat and pressure.

I would like to see the results compared to other high end motor oils.

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

Bet the oil companies wouldn't,... :)

Gale, Amsoil is some pretty good stuff- none better. That said, I think I'm going to include an accumulator at the least for my future performance engines! FR

[@gregclaiborne3691]

More info... What oil did they use? Is the block and all parts stock??? Do they modify the oil gallery, high volume oil pump? Great video! 👍 But I like details. Info junkie...

[@gregclaiborne3691]

Thanks! And I forgot to say, not only do they make some Great Oil ! They also have a great engine builders!!!!

I'm going to have to try some Amsoil!, In the 2009 mustang GT CS ,in the LT swapped 72 GMC, What else? I'll have find a Local distributor in Manitoba Canada..I'm enjoying this series.

Just for a Dyno fun run they should try the Porsche 500 hour endurance run that mimics the race car driver telematics racing through the Alps full tilt. Harley did it with their VRod engine on the dyno and it was much more brutal than they expected.

I believe Deere also tests to 500 hours at about 140°C oil temp and 85% engine load. Rpms won't be very high, but that's hot for the oil.

So, obviously AmsOil doesn't refine but blend. But is synthetic motor oil still refined from good ol crude oil fractions? I've used AmsOil gear oil and theirs are among the best.
