Engine Flush – Most Overlooked AMSOIL Product

Product Overview: AMSOIL Engine Flush

One of my top sellers of course is the AMSOIL Engine Flush but when you take a look at the number of oil changes we sell really only about 15% are adding the flush to their order. In reality at least 75% of all the oil changes that are using AMSOIL for the first time with over 25,000 miles should use it.
Among the many reasons to use a walk-in customer had the following to say:
“My truck  (Ford F-150 non-ecoboost) was using about a quart of oil every 4000 miles or about at 3-months. I used the flush on the last oil change per your recommendation on using it to neutralize acids in order to help the oil’s detergent last longer and low and behold it also stopped from then on using oil!”
AMSOIL Engine Flush – Recommended for any engine with over 25,000 miles (Order FLSH-CN)
Well then this low cost product actually ensures our detergents will last longer by neutralizing the acids which are caused by deposits. It’s designed for all modern seals and gaskets. So it helps you get more out of the AMSOIL motor oils. The flush is also non-solvent based – Non-flammable meaning it’s not harsh on engines and contains nothing different that what is already in our oil – essentially a concentrated form of the detergents and depressants. That also makes it more environmental friendly. The flush helps reduce lifter noise, increases mileage by improving compression. Effectively addresses deposits around piston rings which rob power and cause blow-by. Helps the motor control temperatures. And as we learned – lessons blow-by aiding in better crankcase ventilation.
You want to take care of any deposits early and the volatility of non-synthetics or competitor’s synthetics which are likely to be of the Group III nature can potentially leave deposits in engines which run under severe service. In most applications you only need to use it once but on higher mileage engines which you may not know the history you may find two applications are necessary – meaning one at the time of each subsequent oil change. I can personally attest to that need in my 83 Eagle which was sludged up when I bought it. Slowly using our HDD 5W-30 (high detergent Heavy Duty Diesel & Gasoline Synthetic), flush and our bypass kit (BMK-21), I have improved mileage and oil consumption significantly.
Any car with more than 50,000 it’s a must. Customers do notice a difference. Use approximately one bottle for every 10 quarts of oil.
Amsoil Engine FlushAnd a note on the conditions which will create the need to flush – Sioux Falls winters especially – every time you cut that engine off and the crankcase drops below 60 degrees you are building up moisture in the crankcase. This eventually creates a condition resulting in wear is the motor is not warmed up properly but subsequently deposits as well so we urge you be aware of this and avoid running the engine for less than 10 minutes after the motor is fully warmed on days below 30 degrees. You need to get the moisture out of the crankcase as often as possible.
So if you are not interested in AMSOIL Synthetic Motor oils, still this makes a reason to visit our store. Our flush is unique – it’s not harsh like popular solvent based ones as it contains no flammables. It is mild enough to be used as a transmission flush as well and quite effective. Full instructions are located on the bottle.

Seventy Five Percent more protection than required.

Excessive engine wear eventually leads to costly breakdowns and catastrophic engine failure. But even if your engine doesn’t fail, wear robs your vehicle of power, performance and that “like-new” feeling you crave when driving.

Modern engine parts are finely engineered to tight tolerances. This helps engines run more efficiently and last longer. Over time, however, wear causes bearings, pistons, piston rings and other parts to deviate from their original specifications. Bearings no longer run “true,” causing noise and heat. Worn piston rings and cylinders reduce the effectiveness of the dynamic seal that forms between the ring and cylinder wall, resulting in compression loss and increased oil consumption. Engines that lose compression produce less power.

Valve and camshaft wear are also a problem. Worn valve stems and cam lobes negatively affect valve timing and lift, which reduces efficiency and power. Variable valve timing (VVT) systems, common on most newer vehicles, contain intricate components that are especially prone to the ill effects of wear. VVT systems use oil-pressure-operated mechanical devices to change valve timing, duration and lift to achieve improved fuel economy and performance compared to traditional engines. Since most VVT systems are non-serviceable, wear can lead to costly problems down the road, in addition to poor performance.

To demonstrate its superior wear protection, AMSOIL Signature Series 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil was subjected to the 100-hour Sequence IIIG Engine Test (ASTM D 7320), an industry-standard test designed to evaluate motor oil in several key performance areas. It must be passed to meet the API SN and ILSAC GF-5 motor oil specifications.

AMSOIL instructed the lab that performed the test to double it to 200 hours. Signature Series not only passed the double-length test, it did so with flying colors. Its superior wear protection in the test, and because reducing wear has a direct correlation with reducing horsepower loss, allows AMSOIL to confidently claim Signature Series guards against wear and horsepower loss 75 percent better than required by a leading industry standard.

Upgrade to AMSOIL performance to protect your vehicle against wear and horsepower loss.

*Based on independent testing of AMSOIL Signature Series 5W-30 in ASTM D7320, as required by the API SN specification.

Here is the Sequence III tests. The results would be the same for all the Signature Series and the European line of products. 5W-20, 0W-20, 10W-30, 0W-30 included.Double Length Sequence IIIG Testing
