Does Your Differential Feel Neglected? Synthetic Gear Oil

Does Your Differential Feel Neglected? Change to synthetic gear oil

Free Amsoil Catalog

Many truck and SUV owners personalize their vehicles with aftermarket products such as lift kits, tires and rims, custom grills, paint, wheel well flairs and engine upgrades. While these upgrades and accessories can increase engine performance and add plenty of visual appeal, they do nothing for extending drivetrain life like synthetic gear oil can do.  Most people perform proper engine maintenance and change their engine oil on a regular basis, but according to one quick lube business, only about two percent of its customers purchase differential gear lube changes. Even fewer change to synthetic gear oil. Sometimes this out of sight, out of mind differential neglect results in costly gear failure, leaving the motorist stranded on the highway.

synthetic gear oil

differential drain plug

There are two basic ways to change differential gear lube to synthetic gear oil. The old fluid may be drained or suctioned out and the differential refilled with new gear lube, or the differential cover may be removed to allow more of the old gear lube to drain out and allow access to the magnet inside the differential. Unlike engines, differentials are not equipped with filters. Instead, magnets that are open to the entire gear lube sump are used to catch some of the metal wear particles. When changing differential fluid, the magnet should be cleaned to ensure the new gear lube does not
become contaminated.

After draining the old fluid and cleaning the magnet, the differential cover should be re-installed and the differential filled with the correct viscosity grade of AMSOIL SEVERE GEAR® Synthetic Gear Lube. The use of cleaning solvents is not recommended. Initial differential oil changes are recommended by some manufacturers after the first 500 to
3,000 miles. synthetic gear oil

Even when vehicle manufacturers do not specify to change the factory-fill gear lube to remove wear particles, it is a
good practice to do so. For optimum gear and bearing life, AMSOIL recommends the factory-fill differential gear lube
be changed no later than the first 5,000 miles with new or rebuilt gears, followed by 50,000 mile drain intervals in
severe service or 100,000 mile drain intervals in normal service when using AMSOIL synthetic gear lubes.

AMSOIL recommends any one of three SEVERE GEAR viscosity grades, 75W-90, 75W-110 or 75W-140, for turbo diesel or 4×4 trucks, SUV’s and automobiles.

SEVERE GEAR 75W-90 (SVG) replaces competitive 75W-90 and
80W-90 gear lubricants and delivers the optimum fuel efficiency and cold temperature performance of all the SEVERE GEAR gear lubes.

SEVERE GEAR 75W-110 (SVT) replaces competitive 75W-110, 75W-90 and 80W-90 gear lubricants and delivers increased fluid film wear protection over lighter viscosity fluids and better fuel efficiency than 75W-140 gear lubes.

SEVERE GEAR 75W-140 (SVO) replaces competitive 75W-140, 80W-140 and 85W-140 gear lubes in applications where these viscosities are recommended by equipment manufacturers.

Also don’t forget to look at the RACING gear oil options.

Family Handyman Magazine Gets it Right on Synthetic Oil Myths – almost : Amsoil Engine Flush.

Amsoil Engine Flush

Family Handyman magazine

Family Handyman Magazine had a short tip on the 4 Big Synthetic Oil Myths. www.familyhandyman.com

The big four myths listed were;

  1. You have to flush the engine before you can run synthetic oil in it. FALSE. You should NEVER flush your engine. All carmakers warn against this practice. (editorial comment; this is the one reaction we disagree with)
  2. Synthetic oil causes leaks. FALSE. This was true 25 years ago. Not anymore. Current formulations contain seal conditioners to prevent leaks.
  3. Once you switch to synthetic, you can’t go back to regular oil. FALSE. No truth whatsoever to this one.
  4. Since synthetic oil flows better when cold, I can ignore the manufacturer’s 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’s oil weight recommendations.

Amsoil Engine Flush

In general, Family Handyman gets it straight on these tips. These have each been a long standing myth so it’s good to get a major magazine to clear the air. We agree with their reaction to tips 2,3, and 4.

Engine Flush

Amsoil has sold an engine flush product for years. In many cases, it’s not needed. However, in certain cases it’s a proper product to use to transition a car to synthetic oil. It’s been used in thousands of vehicles by thousands of Amsoil customers with no issues.

Amsoil Engine Flush

Amsoil Engine Flush 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. Amsoil Engine Flush

Restores Vehicles to Like-New
New 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

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. Amsoil Engine Flush

• Cleans engines and transmissions for improved efficiency, fuel economy and lower emissions
• Prolongs equipment life
• Detergent-based formula more environmentally friendly
• Compatible with seals and gaskets
• One-treatment results
• Easily disposed of with waste oil

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

AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush Benefits
Unlike 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:

Gasoline and Diesel Engines

• Helps loosen sticky valves and rings, minimizing blow-by and reducing emissions
• Helps quiet lifter noise
• Promotes lower operating temperatures through sludge removal
• Easy disposal

Automatic Transmissions

• Cleans deposits in oil cooler and ports
• Helps unclog fluid passages
• Cleans deposits and varnish from clutch plates, helping improve efficiency
• Promotes smoother operation and transmission life through reduced shift delay

Applications
AMSOIL Engine and Transmission Flush is recommended for diesel and gasoline engines, and automatic transmissions. It is not recommended for CVT transmissions or differentials.

Directions for Use
Though 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’s recommendation. Otherwise, use the following guidelines:

Engine: 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
drain. Remove and replace the engine oil filter. Refill engine with new engine oil in the viscosity grade recommended by the manufacturer.

Transmission: 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.

NOTE: It is not recommended to flush transmissions that do not have a removable pan or access to the transmission filter.

Synthetic Compressor Oil

Synthetic Compressor Oil – eliminate maintenance on compressors

Free Amsoil Catalog

synthetic compressor oil Buy Amsoil Synthetic Compressor Oil now!

Synthetic compressor oil can eliminate one maintenance chore in your shop. Most folks never change the compressor fluid in shop air compressors. These are often neglected, but critical tools in a shop. You can eliminate the need to maintain and monitor oil changes in compressors by installing synthetic compressor oil. AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil is a long-life, premium compressor lubricant based on novel, proprietary technology. It incorporates the highest quality, thermally stable PAO synthetics fortified with premium non-detergent, ashless additives for maximum protection at high temperatures and pressures. It lasts up to eight times longer than petroleum oils, effectively reducing maintenance and waste oil disposal costs.

Improves Compressor Efficiency
AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil has low friction properties and resists viscosity increase from oxidation. It helps improve operating efficiency and saves money on electrical energy consumption.

Synthetic Compressor Oil

synthetic compressor oilControls Foam and Reduces Wear
AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil contains anti-foam additives and, unlike some other compressor oils, is anti-wear fortified. Good foam control reduces heat, oxidation and wear. High contact regions are protected against wear for increased compressor life and efficiency.

Resists Water Contamination
Water from condensation builds up in compressors and can cause unwanted oil/water emulsions, environmental discharge hazards and rust. AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil is hydrolytically stable. It resists acid formation, readily separates from water and is anti-rust fortified. Water can be easily drained for simplified environmental discharge and increased oil life.

Resists Heat and Oxidation
AMSOIL PC Series Oil combines the inherent stability of premium synthetic base oils with specialized anti-oxidant additives to resist varnish, carbon and acid formation. It is formulated to protect compressors better and last longer in service than petroleum oils, especially during hot operating conditions.

Synthetic Compressor Oil

Safety Advantage
AMSOIL PC Series Oil is an ashless, high-flash-point formulation with very low carbon-forming tendencies that minimizes the incidence of ignition-promoting “hot spots.” While PC Series Oil can provide improved fire safety, it cannot be considered non-flammable.

Application Recommendation
AMSOIL PC Series Oil in the appropriate viscosity is recommended for use in single and multistage rotary screw, vane, centrifugal and reciprocating compressor crankcases and cylinders, vacuum pumps and other applications such as gears, bearings, blowers, pumps and handheld pneumatic tools. In compressor applications, drain intervals of 8,000 hours or more can be expected under normal operation. Drain intervals are subject to operating conditions and maintenance practices. Monitoring by oil analysis is recommended. For best performance when converting to AMSOIL PC Series Synthetic Compressor Oil, it is recommended the compressor be drained of the old fluid prior to the installation of PC Series Oil. If carbon deposits are present on the internal components, it is recommended they be removed following the compressor manufacturer recommendations.

How to change the air compressor oil

Some air compressors are oil less; they do NOT use oil. If you have one of those, you don’t have to change oil since there isn’t any. Most large shop style tower compressors ARE oil lubricated.

  • Do NOT use regular automotive oil; this is against almost all manufacturer recommendations. Read your manual.
  • Determine the weight and spec recommended.
  • There will usually be a drain and a filler/dipstick.
  • Drain the oil, and put the plug back in.
  • Fill the oil to the level recommended on the dipstick, or on the oil sight glass.
  • Most manufacturers (including CH) recommend changing once after the first hour of use.

New After-Dark Wisconsin Dells Boat Expedition Exposes Systems Of The “Lost Voyage” – Non toxic antifreeze.

<!–ACNTP

Summer arrives in the Midwest, disclosing a totally new and highly eerie puzzling journey on the Wisconsin Brook in the popular Wisconsin Dells holiday spot. Opening Commemorative Day weekend, Lost Voyage takes brave-hearted souls on an after-dark boat excursion upriver to Cold Water Ravine, a traditional gorge that cuts deep into the cliffs on the eastern shore. Once there, passengers disembark and take a led walk deep into the almost pitch-black canyon to face a horrifying skirmish with the legendary mystery surrounding a missing tour ship. “Lost Voyage is not a beautiful tour ; it's a totally new brand of interactive entertainment,” explains Amanda Glime, aid chief of Lost Excursion. “On one level, Lost Voyage is a bizarre ship ride and ravine walk crammed with thrills and chills but for people who dare to unravel the mystery, there’s lots more excitement and multiple layers to peel back.” The fictional tale centers round the Badger – an old tour ship and an essential part of the whole experience. According to legend, in the summertime of 1943, the Badger disappeared during a tempest near Cold Water Canyon.

No trace of ship, passengers or crew was ever found till just recently, when a threesome of teenagers press releases distribution stumbled upon the missing vessel in the depths of the canyon – resting on dry land! At least, that is what the photos on their camera advises ; while their camera was recovered, the teenagers have gone missing. Now, you are part of an expedition to try and find the youths and unravel the mystery of the disappearing excursion. Why did the ship disappear 68 years ago? Where did it go? And why did it suddenly reappear? What's happened to those kids? Could Fascist spies, paranormal forces or Native American spirits be the root of these unusual events? “It is that puzzle element that makes Lost Voyage so unique,” explains Emil Bertalot, the creator of the attraction.

“There's not merely an explanation for what is going on ; there’s a whole story that you become an active participant in. There are reasons why you see, hear and experience everything you will on the expedition. Hints to solving the mystery are everywhere.” Discovering the answers will not be easy – but it should be enjoyable. The answers could be faced anywhere : Around the Lost Excursion dock, in the adventure, even on the Lost Voyage site itself. When participants find all the answers, a code will be revealed. That code will unlock a critical part of the puzzle, and qualify the lucky code breaker for the opportunity to win prizes.

Lost Voyage photo 1

“Lost Excursion doesn't end with the night ship adventure,” says Bertalot. “We are extending the experience by providing some truly top quality entertainment and intrigue by following along online.” The puzzle of the Lost Excursion will be disclosed in stages, over 1 or 2 seasons, inspiring folk to make the nightly trek several times. Annually there'll be new questions to answer and new codes to unlock as pieces of the haunting puzzle are revealed. Even the experience itself will develop over time, presenting a fresh chapter, new frights, and new clues to find. In time, the developers hope this new sort of interactive experience builds an audience of fans that may share their theories and thoughts online about the fate of the Lost Excursion and those hooked up to it. “Lost Voyage is a completely unique mix of Blair Hag, Lost, X-Files and Indiana Jones, with masses of conspiracy speculation tossed in for good measure,” claims Glime. “If you want to figure out where the boat went, why it reappeared, what happened to those youths – the answers are out there.” Due to its ill-omened themes, the Lost Voyage attraction is geared toward older grownups and children.
