Welcome to Amsoil from SyntheticOilHQ.com!

Sign up for our FREE newsletter

Fall is here, and in most states that means cooler weather. We have customers across the United States and Canada, so we know there are some lucky folks that enjoy warm weather year around. In this issue, we would like to mention three things you can do quickly and easily to prepare for cooler weather.

Check your antifreeze if you live where temperatures will be below freezing;

  1. Consider a quality biodegradable, non-toxic coolant like Amsoil Antifreeze and Coolant. Amsoil Antifreeze and CoolantThis product is non-toxic, and won’t injure your pets if they accidentally drink it. The Amsoil Dominator Coolant Boost will also allow your car to warm up more quickly in cold weather.  
  2. Check your tires; make sure they are properly inflated, and have good winter tread for use in areas that get snow.
  3. Now is a good time to get new wipers. It’s better to check and replace them now, and not in the middle of a blizzard. We carry the entire line of Trico wipers for any vehicle.Trico winter wipers

For Diesel engines;

  • Amsoil has a complete line of diesel fuel additives to ensure you don’t have any cold weather problems with your diesel fueled vehicle. There is a Cetane Booster, Flow Improver, and a Diesel Recovery Emergency Fuel Treatment. The Diesel Recovery is formulated for use in a system that is already exhibiting symptoms of gelling or freezing. Keep one in the back of the truck just in case.

Amsoil Rider Canard Crowned Champion at MX Finale

Canard Crowned Champion at MX Finale

Pala Raceway proved a perfect spot to crown an new champion in the AMA Outdoor Nationals 250 class and just about everything went right for Team AMSOIL rider Trey Canard.

After gaining ground all season long, Canard needed to make up seven points on rival Chris Pourcel of in the final two moto to bring home his second career points championship.

A strong day of riding and a little bit of luck, (good for Canard, bad for Pourcel), put the championship talk to rest in the first moto. Even though Canard crashed, so did Pourcel and the Frenchman’s was much worse than Canards. A dislocated shoulder took Pourcelout of first race, and caused him to miss the second.

After finishing fourth in moto one, Canard ran with race leader Dean Wilson for much of the second moto before going on cruise control and enjoying his first outdoor championship and finishing third overall on the day.

Ford Knocks 3,000-mile Intervals

Ford issued an “automotive maintenance myths” statement March 12 that labels the idea that cars need oil changes every three months or 3,000 miles as a myth, though fast lubes caution that such an interval is still smart for many vehicles driven under severe conditions.

“That used to be true, but not with newer cars,” Ford stated. “Because of synthetic oils that don’t break down as quickly, consumers actually don’t need oil changes as often – more like every 5,000 to 7,500 miles – or even 10,000 on the new 2011 Mustang depending on your driving habits.” The 2011 Mustang features a die-cast aluminum deep-sump oil pan that Ford claims provides for up to 10,000-mile oil change intervals

The company’s current recommendation is 7,500 miles per oil change, said Ford Car Marketing Manager Robert Parker. “Special operating conditions are 5,000 miles, 6 months or 200 hours of engine operation, whichever occurs first, and that’s for severe usage like taxis and things of that nature,” Parker told Lube Report.

Ford noted that there may be two recommendations for oil change intervals – one for normal driving and one for hard use – and advised checking one’s owner’s manual to be sure. The c
