FALSE. You should NEVER flush your engine. All carmakers warn against this practice. (<em>editorial comment; this is the one reaction we disagree with)<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Synthetic oil causes leaks. FALSE. This was true 25 years ago. Not anymore. Current formulations contain seal conditioners to prevent leaks.<\/li>\n<li>Once you switch to synthetic, you can\u2019t go back to regular oil. FALSE. No truth whatsoever to this one.<\/li>\n<li>Since synthetic oil flows better when cold, I can ignore the manufacturer\u2019s recommendations for 5W- 20 and use 10W-30. FALSE. Heavier weight oil reduces fuel efficiency and can mess up valve timing mechanisms. Stick with the manufacturer\u2019s oil weight recommendations.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Amsoil Engine Flush<\/h2>\n<p>In general, Family Handyman gets it straight on these tips. These have each been a long standing myth so it\u2019s good to get a major magazine to clear the air. We agree with their reaction to tips 2,3, and 4.<\/p>\n<h1>Engine Flush<\/h1>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/catalog\" target=\"_blank\">Amsoil<\/a> has sold an <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amsoil.com\/storefront\/flsh.aspx?zo=313120\" target=\"_blank\">engine flush<\/a> product for years. In many cases, it\u2019s not needed. However, in certain cases it\u2019s a proper product to use to transition a car to synthetic oil. It\u2019s been used in thousands of vehicles by thousands of Amsoil customers with no issues.<\/p>\n<h3>Amsoil Engine Flush<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Amsoil Engine Flush<\/strong> AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush (FLSH) helps restore fuel economy, increase operating efficiency and reduce emissions in gasoline and diesel engines, and automatic transmissions. Its potent, detergent-based formula cleans sludge and deposit build-up, promoting lower operating temperatures and reduced oil consumption. AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush is safe on parts and can be easily disposed of with waste oil. <em>Amsoil Engine Flush<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Restores Vehicles to Like-New<\/strong><br \/>\nNew engines and transmissions run more efficiently, but over time they gather harmful deposits that cause power and performance loss. Stop-and-go driving, prolonged idling, short trips that do not allow the engine to reach full operating temperature, towing, the ingestion of airborne dirt, fuel dilution, water condensation and oxidized oil all can promote sludge build-up in motor oil and transmission fluid. As it settles, sludge clogs narrow oil passages, restricting oil flow to vital parts, especially the upper valve train area. Amsoil Engine Flush<\/p>\n<p>In transmissions, deposits can form on clutch plates, causing hesitation and erratic shifting. Ultimately clutch glazing can set in, reducing the life of the transmission. Deposits in engines and transmissions can accelerate wear, causing power loss and increased fuel consumption. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Amsoil Engine Flush<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2022 Cleans engines and transmissions for improved efficiency, fuel economy and lower emissions<br \/>\n\u2022 Prolongs equipment life<br \/>\n\u2022 Detergent-based formula more environmentally friendly<br \/>\n\u2022 Compatible with seals and gaskets<br \/>\n\u2022 One-treatment results<br \/>\n\u2022 Easily disposed of with waste oil<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Installing new oil or transmission fluid into a dirty vehicle may not be enough to remove deposits and increase efficiency. The detergents and dispersants in some lubricants may not be able to handle leftover sludge and deposits, and the new lubricant soon becomes unfit for service, accelerating the formation of even more harmful deposits. Amsoil Engine Flush<\/p>\n<p><strong>AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush Benefits<\/strong><br \/>\nUnlike many flush products, AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush features a multi-use formulation that dissolves and disperses sludge, varnish and deposits in both engines and automatic transmissions. Due to its detergent-based formulation, used AMSOIL FLSH can be easily disposed of with waste oil, making it more user-friendly. Its advanced formula of light base oil technology, powerful detergents and dispersants provides safe cleaning action. AMSOIL FLSH is compatible with both petroleum and synthetic oils, preparing poorly maintained equipment for installation of new oil. It represents the first step toward restoring neglected equipment to top-notch performance. AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush provides the following benefits in only one treatment:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gasoline and Diesel Engines<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2022 Helps loosen sticky valves and rings, minimizing blow-by and reducing emissions<br \/>\n\u2022 Helps quiet lifter noise<br \/>\n\u2022 Promotes lower operating temperatures through sludge removal<br \/>\n\u2022 Easy disposal<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Automatic Transmissions<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2022 Cleans deposits in oil cooler and ports<br \/>\n\u2022 Helps unclog fluid passages<br \/>\n\u2022 Cleans deposits and varnish from clutch plates, helping improve efficiency<br \/>\n\u2022 Promotes smoother operation and transmission life through reduced shift delay<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Applications<\/strong><br \/>\nAMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush is recommended for diesel and gasoline engines, and automatic transmissions. It is not recommended for CVT transmissions or differentials.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Directions for Use<\/strong><br \/>\nThough it works in one treatment, AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush is safe enough to be used at every oil change. If using a flushing machine, follow the manufacturer\u2019s recommendation. Otherwise, use the following guidelines:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Engine:<\/strong> Add 16 oz. bottle of AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush to engine oil fill port. Idle the engine for 10-15 minutes, then immediately drain the oil. Ensure enough time for the system to completely<br \/>\ndrain. Remove and replace the engine oil filter. Refill engine with new engine oil in the viscosity grade recommended by the manufacturer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Transmission:<\/strong> Engage emergency brake. Add 16 oz. bottle of AMSOIL Engine Flush to transmission oil fill port. Idle for 10-15 minutes; shift through drive and reverse. Do NOT place vehicle under heavy load. Drain entire transmission and torque converter of fluid. FILTER MUST BE CHANGED prior to refilling with new transmission fluid.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> It is not recommended to flush transmissions that do not have a removable pan or access to the transmission filter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\">\n<div id=\"attachment_2438\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Trans-clutch-plates-before_418.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2438\" data-attachment-id=\"2438\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/family-handyman-magazine-gets-it-right-on-synthetic-oil-myths-almost\/trans-clutch-plates-before_418\/\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Trans-clutch-plates-before_418.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"418,211\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Amsoil Engine Flush\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Amsoil Engine Flush&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Amsoil Engine Flush&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Trans-clutch-plates-before_418-300x151.jpg\" data-large-file=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Trans-clutch-plates-before_418.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2438 \" title=\"Amsoil Engine Flush\" src=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Trans-clutch-plates-before_418-300x151.jpg\" alt=\"Amsoil Engine Flush\" width=\"300\" height=\"151\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Trans-clutch-plates-before_418-300x151.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.syntheticoilhq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Trans-clutch-plates-before_418.jpg 418w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2438\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Amsoil Engine Flush<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>(above) Automatic transmission clutch plates pre-cleanup.
