Better Fuel Economy = Savings for Your Company

Replacing popular conventional petroleum engine and driveline lubricants with AMSOIL synthetic lubricants in Class 8 diesel-fueled vehicles increases fuel mileage up to 8.2%, according to the findings of an independent test facility.

Fuel accounts for roughly 37 percent of Class 8 truck operating expenses, so reducing fuel expenses is a top priority for truck operators. In fact, it may actually be THE top priority for many owners/operators. With the potential to save thousands to millions of dollars just by making a change to increase fuel economy, it is certainly worthwhile to investigate all options.

AMSOIL is the leader in the race to develop fuel efficient low-viscosity lubricants for trucking and other heavy-duty diesel applications. Independent laboratory testing shows AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil in the engine and AMSOIL synthetics in the drivetrain provide up to 8.2 percent more miles-per-gallon than other popular lubricants provide.

Introduction

At the request of AMSOIL INC., an independent research institute conducted a month-long test com-paring the fuel consumption of Class 8 diesel trucks equipped with AMSOIL synthetic lubricants to Class 8 diesel trucks equipped with conventional lubricants.

The research institute used the SAE J1321 Joint TMC/SAE Fuel Consumption Test Procedure-Type II, an industry standard test procedure for comparing in-service fuel consumption of a vehicle operated under two conditions, one with the control lubricants in place, the other with the test lubricants in place.
