PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30/SAE 30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil (ACD)
is formulated with premium synthetic base oils that exceed
both 10W-30 multi-grade and SAE 30 straight-grade viscosity
requirements for outstanding performance in modern and older
diesel engines. Unlike conventional SAE 30 motor oils,
AMSOIL ACD has a naturally high viscosity index and does not
contain paraffin (wax). It has a -33°F pour point and
qualifies for SAE 10W, making it an all-season multigrade
lubricant with a wide operating temperature range. AMSOIL
ACD is formulated without viscosity index (VI) improvers.
This shear-stable formulation is designed to stop viscosity
loss and associated bearing and cylinder bore wear. AMSOIL
Synthetic 10W-30/SAE 30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil contains
premium additives with a high 12 TBN to neutralize acids
from blow-by, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and
high-sulfur diesel fuels. It protects against damaging
piston deposits, ring sticking and sludge.
AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic
lubrication, produced the world’s first API qualified
synthetic motor oil back in 1972. Trust the extensive
experience of AMSOIL The First in Synthetics®
to do the best job protecting your equipment.
PERFORMANCE
Where these viscosity grades are specified, AMSOIL Synthetic
10W-30/SAE 30 Diesel Oil provides outstanding performance as
a straight-grade SAE 30 for older two- and four-stroke
diesels and as a multi-grade SAE 10W-30 in modern
four-stroke diesel and gasoline engines. AMSOIL Synthetic
Heavy Duty Diesel Oil is ideal for use in a wide variety of
light and heavy-duty applications, including agriculture,
off-road construction, trucking, mining, industrial (pumps
and generators) and personal automotive or commercial
transportation. It is recommended for use with low- or
high-sulfur diesel fuels in standard, turbocharged or
supercharged engines, all off-road engines and pre-2007
on-road engines.
• SAE 10W-30 performance

MIXING AMSOIL
AMSOIL ACD is compatible with conventional and synthetic
motor oils, however, mixing AMSOIL ACD with other oils will
shorten the oil life expectancy and reduce the performance
benefits. AMSOIL does not support extended drain intervals
where AMSOIL ACD has been mixed with another product.
Aftermarket additives are not
recommended for use with AMSOIL ACD.
SERVICE LIFE
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-30/SAE 30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil
(ACD) is recommended for extended drain intervals in engines
that are unmodified and in good operating condition.
Diesel Engine Service
- Three times (3X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed
50,000 miles/600 hours or one year, whichever comes
first. Drain intervals may be extended further with oil
analysis.
Gasoline Engine Service
- Two times (2X) OEM* recommendation, not to exceed
15,000 miles or one year, whichever comes first.
*Operating conditions and drain intervals for severe and
normal service are defined by the OEM. Refer to your owner’s
manual.
Note: Extended drain intervals are not
recommended when using biofuels containing >10% ethanol or
5% biodiesel (B5). Follow OEM drain intervals or extend
drain intervals with oil analysis.
AMSOIL Ea™ and Donaldson
Endurance™ full flow oil filters are designed for extended
drain intervals. They stop smaller particles, have less
restriction and last longer than regular filters. For best
performance, use AMSOIL Ea or Donaldson Endurance oil
filters.
AMSOIL
Ea By-pass
oil filters are specialized for the removal of small,
wear-causing dirt particles, thereby extending engine life.
AMSOIL encourages using an AMSOIL Ea By-pass filter system
for maximum engine and oil life.
