Product Description

AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil is specially formulated to provide superior protection and performance in a wide variety of demanding applications. By incorporating high quality synthetic base stocks and additives, AMSOIL Premium Protection Oil exceeds the needs of large and small gasoline or diesel engines in cars, motorcycles, trucks, motor homes, maintenance equipment, heavy equipment, street rods and marine applications.

AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil provides flexibility and performance beyond conventional oils for convenience and trouble free operation.

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.

Provides Superior Wear Protection

AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil is a high viscosity oil engineered to protect against metal-to-metal contact. It resists viscosity shear and is formulated with a heavy treatment of anti-wear additives for excellent protection of gears, bearings, cam lobes and other high-pressure components in engines and transmissions. AMSOIL Premium Protection Synthetic Motor Oil helps extend engine life.

Exceeds the Requirements of Wet Clutch Transmissions

AMSOIL Premium Protection Synthetic Motor Oil contains no friction modifiers, making it ideal for motorcycles, maintenance equipment and other wet clutch transmission applications. Formulated to prevent clutch glazing and slippage, it insures smooth clutch engagement and long term, dependable transmission operation. AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Motor Oil reduces clutch wear for extended transmission life.

Resists Oxidation and High Temperature Breakdown

AMSOIL Premium Protection Synthetic Motor Oil overcomes the thermal deficiencies common to conventional petroleum oils. Volatilization (burn-off), oxidation and excessive deposit formation from high heat are greatly reduced. Viscosity thickening is controlled and engines run clean, promoting cooler operation and long engine life in air or liquid cooled engines.

Extends Drain Intervals in Gasoline and Diesel Engines

The superior AMSOIL synthetic base stock and additive technology exceeds the requirements of both gasoline and diesel engines. AMSOIL Premium Protection Motor Oil neutralizes acids, disperses soot and lasts longer in service than conventional oils.

AMSOIL 10w40 HP Typical Technical Specifications


AMSOIL 10w40 Synthetic Oil - Typical Technical Specifications (Data)LET'S DO THE MATH!!

The best way to know the quality of a synthetic lubricant or filter is to compare the technical data to other brand offerings. Unfortunately, many lubricants manufacturers provide little, if any, technical data for their oils. Of course, it's not hard to imagine why that is.

Our technical specifications prove that our products are superior to the competition, and we're not shy about making that information public.

The technical specification data for AMSOIL Synthetic 10w40 Oil is available as a PDF document. Please click on the link below to open or download the Adobe PDF document to your computer:

For additional information and assistance, see our blue "Website & Product Help" button at the top of the navigational column to the right.[newpage=Mixing with Other Lubes]

Mixing AMSOIL With Other Lubes

Mixing AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants with Other brand oils shortens lube life and reduces performance benefits
AMSOIL motor oils are compatible with other conventional and synthetic motor oils, so there should be no concern over engine problems due to the mixing of our products with other brands. Mixing AMSOIL synthetic lubricants with other oils, however, will shorten the life expectancy of the lubes and WILL reduce the performance benefits.

AMSOIL does not support extended drain intervals where oils have been mixed, and the AMSOIL warranty is only valid if AMSOIL is being used as the exclusive lubricant and is not being routinely mixed with other brand oils.

Aftermarket oil additives are also not recommended for use with AMSOIL motor oils.

Service Life of AMSOIL 10w40 Synthetic Oil


AMSOIL 10w40 Synthetic Oil Change Intervals - Service Life InformationAMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 Premium Protection Motor Oil is recommended for use up to 15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first, in unmodified(1), mechanically sound(2) automotive gasoline or diesel engines. In motorcycles, small engines, stationary engines, heavy equipment and other applications, extend drain intervals based on oil analysis or follow the manufacturer recommended drain interval.

AMSOIL Ea™ full-flow oil filters are designed for extended drain intervals. They stop smaller particles, flow more oil and last longer than regular filters. For best performance, use AMSOIL Ea™ full-flow oil filters and replace at the time of oil change. Other oil filters should be changed at standard OEM^ intervals.

^OEM - Original Equipment Manufacturer


For maximum engine protection, use only AMSOIL high efficiency oil and air filters, which offer, not only incredible contaminant removal ability, but also long change interval capability for maximum economy.

Note: Most quick lube service centers will install these products upon request or you can install them yourself.
