Why Use Synthetic Oil?

Q WHY USE SYNTHETIC OIL ?

A BETTER AND LESS EXPENSIVE !

Well citizen. that's pretty simple is it not? Not convinced.well continue on down below but first

CAUTION !!

You Must Engage Your Mind And Activate The Thought Process Or It Will All Be In Vain

WHY SHOULD YOU USE SYNTHETIC OIL (AMSOIL)?

1. Reduces engine or component friction and wear compared to crude mineral base stock formulations
   
   
2. Improved wider lubricating range capability over crude mineral base oil from cold winter starts to hot desert highway running
   
   
3. Cooler running engines or components, exhibiting up to and over 50 degree temperature reduction compared to mineral oil base stocks
   
   
4. Longer oil service life (less cost) up to 25'000 miles (mechanically sound engines) or "no drain ever" capability with easy to install filter systems
   
   
5. Reduced oil consumption and emissions due to more stable synthetic base stocks

HOW CAN IT DO THAT?
