Commercial fisherman Paul Daniels switched his DetroitDiesel 525 hp 12V-71T boat main engine over to AMSOILSynthetic 15W-40 Heavy Duty Diesel and Marine Oil andan AMSOIL Dual Gard By-Pass Oil Filter to increaseengine life and decrease maintenance.

Daniels had been changing his conventional oil at 250- to 300-hour intervals. With AMSOIL products on board, he conserva-tively increased his change intervals until he reached hispresent 2000 hour oil changes with sampling and filter changesat 500 hours.

Fisherman Saves Time and Money“We fish three to six days at a time, sometimes trawling

24 hours a day. The engine runs at continuous load mostof the time, which is ideal for a Detroit Diesel. But there’sno getting around it—we really work that engine.

“AMSOIL Heavy Duty Diesel and Marine Oil and theAMSOIL Dual Gard filter give me the outstanding protec-tion I demand and the extended drain intervals I want.I appreciate the savings in time and money.”

Engine OilAMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Heavy Duty Diesel andMarine Oil provides the ultimate in diesel engine protec-tion. Specifically formulated for long-life, it resists oxidationand thermal breakdown, retains viscosity and eliminatessludge and varnish formation.

Outstanding lubricity provides unbeatable wear protec-tion and maximum fuel efficiency. It contains special per-formance additives for acid and soot control. Extended draincapability reduces downtime and oil expenses.

AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty DieselOil has a fuel efficient formula for gasoline and dieselengines. It contains the beefiest additive package of allAMSOIL motor oils and delivers better wear protection than other popular diesel oils, effectively reducing fuel consumption.

These oils contain anti-rust agents that shield enginemetals from water. They are formulated with 12 Total BaseNumber for dependable, long-lasting acid inhibition and corrosion protection needed in the operation of diesel marine engines. Generally, motor oils average 7 TBN,offering significantly lower corrosion protection thanAMSOIL diesel oils.

Engine Life Increases 500 PercentMore than 60,000 tourists annually visit Alpine Canyons,South Island, New Zealand for high-speed thrills onShotover Jet Ltd. jetboats.

The tourist trade is tough service for the boats. The Chevro-let 454 cu. in. V8-engined jetboats are in service 365 days ayear, making up to 28 high speed river trips a day. The boatsdevelop maximum torque at extremely low engine operatingtemperatures, due to the cooling effect of the snow-fed riverwater they draw. How does Shotover protect these hard-work-ing engines?

With AMSOIL synthetic motor oils and AMSOIL by-passoil filters. Before converting the boats to AMSOIL motor oiland filters and propane fuel, oil change intervals were at 25hours and engine life in the 500-hour range. The propanefuel, AMSOIL synthetic motor oil and AMSOIL by-pass oilfilter combination provides 400-hour oil change intervalsand engine life up to 2500 hours — that’s 16 times greateroil service life and five times greater engine life — a hugesavings for Shotover Jet Ltd.

AdditivesPerformance Improver GasolineAdditive dissolves and removes fuelsystem deposits and other contaminants for improved power andoverall performance in fuel injectedand carbureted gasoline engines.AMSOIL PI also reduces PCV andEGR system deposits, reduces exhaustemissions and improves engine start-ing, idling and response.

Gasoline Stabilizer keeps gasolineand diesel fuel from oxidizing anddeteriorating, prolonging its storagelife. Gasoline Stabilizer inhibits theformation of varnish and gum, whichhelps prevent poor injector and engineperformance.

Shawn Towner, Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, maypractice catch-and-release as an angler, butTowner says AMSOIL products are keepers –all of them.

“Being a professional angler for the past sixyears, I rely on the performance of my equip-ment,” Towner said. “Most important are mytow vehicle and boat motor. I have switched toAMSOIL lubricants in all applications.”

He installed AMSOIL 2-Cycle Oil in his 2002Mercury XR6 150 horsepower outboard motoron his 2002 Triton TR-185 bass boat.

“The oil has really peaked the performanceof my engine,” Towner said. “There’s lesssmoke at start up, no plug fouling, no buildupon the carburetors. Everything is nice andclean in the engine, and I get great perform-ance. The engine never falters once.”

Engine Oil By-Pass Filter outperforms conventional oil filters that cannot remove waterfrom the oil circulation or consistently capture particles smaller than 15 microns. Researchshows particles in the 5 to 20 micron size range cause up to 60 percent of engine wear.

The AMSOIL By-Pass Filter removes water. It also removes virtually all particles down tothree microns in size, and even removes particles smaller than three microns with greater than50 percent efficiency.

Ultra-filtered oil – like that delivered by the By-Pass Oil Filter – lasts longer and performsbetter than conventionally filtered oil, which increases engine life and performance.

Engine Oil Full Flow Filter, the AMSOIL Super Duty Full Flow Oil Filter (SDF),offers superior filter life and filtration to that offered by conventional full flow oilfilters. Its blend of cellulose, fiberglass and synthetic media and tight pleating opti-mize small particle capture, total particle capture, media durability and mediacapacity.

In fact, performance tests demonstrate the AMSOIL Super Duty Filter provides more than 75 percent bettercombined efficiency/capacity than other leading filters, and that increases filter life and engine life.

The AMSOIL SDF also features an oil pressure relief valve when required, to ensure continuous oil flow; aheavy-duty drawn case with a drawn steel double-crimp base and rolled under seaming for filter body strength;and an anti-drain-back valve, when required, to keep dirty oil in the filter when the engine is not running.

AMSOIL Dual Remote Oil Filtration Systempairs an AMSOIL SDF Full Flow Oil Filter with anAMSOIL By-Pass Filter, providing the superiorwater and small-particle capture of by-pass filtrationand top-quality full-flow filtration on one conven-ient, easily accessible mount.

The Dual Remote filtration system increases thevolume of oil in engine circulation, especially when

the largest possible fil-ters are installed in

the system.Increased oilcapacity increases oil life, helps optimize engine operating temperatures and enhances engine life.

With AMSOIL 15W-40 or 10W-30, the Dual Remote Oil Filtration System and a regular program of used oil analys is and filter changes, inboard marine engines may never need another oil change.
