PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Natural Gas Engine Oil is chemically
formulated to deliver unsurpassed protection for natural
gas engines. AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil has a low-ash
formula with highly effective rust and corrosion inhibitors.
It circulates quickly to critical engine components for
fast, easy cold-weather engine start-ups and has a very
low volatility to remain stable in hot engine conditions.
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil will not break down like
petroleum oils because it resists the effects of high
temperature oxidation much longer than petroleum oils
do.
Inhibits Rust
and Corrosion
Natural gas engines are unique in that they
must often operate in locations where service is infrequent.
Many natural gas engines undergo long periods of inactivity.
The rust and corrosion inhibitors in AMSOIL Natural Gas
Engine Oil provide protection during periods when the
engine is not running or running intermittently.
Improves Spark
Plug Reliability
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil is an extremely
low-ash oil, which greatly reduces spark plug fouling
and post plugging in two-cycle natural gas engines and
virtually eliminates ring belt deposits in four-cycle
natural gas engines. In some four-cycle applications,
port cleanings have been reduced four-fold.
Maintains Viscosity
Due to its synthetic formulation, AMSOIL Natural
Gas Engine Oil is a true SAE 40 oil, yet it passes SAE
20W viscosity specifications for low temperature performance
without the use of special additives.
Resists Oxidation
and Thermal Breakdown
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil resists the damaging
effects of heat, blowby chemicals and oxidation up to
ten times longer than do petroleum oils. AMSOIL Natural
Gas Engine Oil neutralizes sludge and acid formation to
provide engines with long-lasting performance and reliability.
Performs in Cold
Weather
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil remains fluid
in extremely cold temperatures. It resists the low temperature
congealing that often occurs in petroleum oils. AMSOIL
Natural Gas Engine Oil ensures instant start-ups, fast
oil circulation and ideal protection under frigid conditions.
Extended Drain
Intervals
AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil affords exceptional
extended drain intervals when monitored by an oil analysis
program. Periodic oil analysis should be conducted at
the engine manufacturers recommended drain intervals.
Change the oil filter at the recommended engine manufacturers
drain intervals.
MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL Synthetic Natural Gas Engine Oil is
compatible with conventional petroleum oils and other
synthetic lubricants; however, mixing AMSOIL Natural Gas
Engine Oil with a petroleum oil will reduce the drain
interval of the AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil. Engine
oil additives or after-market products are not recommended
for use with AMSOIL Natural Gas Engine Oil.
Note: AMSOIL
Synthetic Natural Gas Engine Oil should not be used in
automotive engines that have been modified to use propane
or natural gas.
