WarrantyMSDSData Sheet

AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil helps provide better wear control, improved high- and low-temperature protection and increased fuel economy compared to conventional oils. The oil drain interval recommendations for many of today's vehicles extend well beyond the traditional 3,000-mile interval, especially when electronic oil monitoring systems are employed. AMSOIL OE Oil provides excellent protection and performance for the entire length of the original equipment manufacturer's recommended drain interval.

AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic lubrication, produced the world's first API-qualified synthetic motor oil in 1972. Trust the extensive experience of AMSOIL, The First in Synthetics®, to do the best job protecting your engine.

Improve Fuel Economy
Formulated with friction modifiers, AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil is a fuel-efficient oil that reduces friction-related energy loss. It provides better fuel economy compared to conventional, non-fuel-efficient motor oils.

Maintain Low Emissions
AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil is friendly toward modern emissions control systems, promoting proper operation of catalytic converters for optimum service life and low exhaust emissions.

Protect in All Temperatures
AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil is a multi-viscosity formulation. It resists the effects of thermal breakdown, including evaporation and viscosity loss, while remaining fluid in cold temperatures for easier cold starts and fast startup circulation.

Keeps Engines Clean
Fortified with high levels of detergent and dispersant additives, AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil is engineered to resist sludge and carbon deposits better than conventional oils. It promotes clean operation for longer-lasting, better-running engines.

Bid Appropriate
AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil fulfills the requirements of most public and private purchasing bids. It is cost-effective, making it ideal where synthetic motor oil is specified.

APPLICATIONS
AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil is excellent for use in all types of gasoline-fueled vehicles. It is recommended for all domestic and foreign vehicles requiring any of the listed performance specifications:

5W-30 (OEF)

  • API SN (Resource Conserving), SM...
  • ILSAC GF-5, GF-4...
  • Ford WSS-M2C946-A, WSS-M2C929-A
  • Chrysler MS-6395
  • GM dexos1TM (supersedes LL-A-025, 6094M and 4718M)
COMPATIBILITY
AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil is compatible with conventional and other synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil with other oils, however, will shorten the oil life expectancy and reduce the performance benefits. Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended for use with AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil.

SERVICE LIFE
In gasoline-fueled vehicles, AMSOIL OE Synthetic Motor Oil is recommended for the intervals stated by the vehicle manufacturer or indicated by the oil life monitoring system. Change oil filter at every oil change.

Change Your Oil – Your Trees Will Hug You For It

Change Your Oil – Your Trees Will Hug You For It On the surface, oil mixes with environmental stewardship as well as water. Anyone who’s concerned about the environment is supposed to oppose oil, right? They’re supposed to view oil as a commodity one uses begrudgingly and only out of necessity.

Switching to a high-quality synthetic oil, however, can change one’s outlook. Premium synthetic lubricants – like AMSOIL synthetic motor oils – deliver surprising environmental benefits compared to conventional oils.

The first is extended drain intervals. The main benefit of driving longer between oil changes is obvious – less waste oil to dispose of. Say you drive 15,000 miles per year and change oil about every 5,000 miles. You have to buy, use and dispose of 15 quarts of oil each year (assuming your engine holds five quarts). If you switch to AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil, which carries a recommended service interval of 25,000 miles/one year (15,000 miles/one year in severe service), you only need five quarts of oil per year. (Make sure to check your oil periodically and top-off as necessary.) Not only do you enjoy the convenience of a once-a-year oil change, you significantly cut the amount of waste oil entering the supply stream. Imagine if every car and truck on the road used Signature Series and changed oil once a year. The reduction in waste oil would be staggering, and that’s not taking into account the benefits of sourcing less oil in the first place.

The air we breathe also benefits from AMSOIL synthetic motor oils. Conventional motor oils are more volatile than synthetics, meaning they boil off, or evaporate, more readily when exposed to extreme heat. When oil evaporates, it produces emissions that exit the tailpipe and enter the atmosphere, contributing to air pollution. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils offer better resistance to volatility, helping cut emissions and air pollution.

AMSOIL synthetic lubricants also maximize fuel economy. Unlike their conventional counterparts, AMSOIL synthetic motor oils are engineered with pure molecular structures that allow their molecules to slip more easily over one another, resulting in less restriction to moving engine parts. Less restriction reduces the amount of energy lost to friction, increasing fuel economy and benefiting the environment.

Switching to AMSOIL synthetic lubricants and practicing extended drain intervals is a small step that, if we all take, can lead to big changes down the road.

Communication is King

7/24/2014

0 Comments

 
In my video tip, I mentioned that I was communicating with a Dealer who had decided not to make a current customer aware of a new product offered by AMSOIL. This customer found out about this new product through other means and was not very happy with their servicing Dealer.  Communicating this information to this customer could have saved this Dealer a great deal of angst, but this Dealer didn't want to introduce this product because they didn't make as much commission as other products. 

Do you see the problem here? The focus of the Dealer is on himself, not the customer. The customer knows their customers 
and what they will buy. The focus needs to be on your customer and that is why it is so important to communicate with them, and to do so in a manner in which they prefer. 

We all know what happened to the Titanic. Clear and direct communication probably would have prevented the tragedy and the loss 
of more than 1,500 lives. 

Here are some tips on how you can communicate more effectively with your customers. 

1.) Listen to the customer. 

It seems simple and intuitive, but active listening  is one of the most important components of effective communication. Take notes  on what the customer is saying, and rephrase their concerns to confirm that you  understand what their complaint, concern or question is. Don't simply reel off a list of prepared questions. This can hamper active listening.

2.) Be informed. 
  
Effective communication needs to be educated communication. Before  addressing a comment from a customer, make sure you have all the right information.  Let's take this in two parts. First, be as educated as possible on the  AMSOIL product(s) you are presenting.  Investigate every topic related to the AMSOIL products, your services and to their market that you can. This will 
help you to be able to respond with great information to  customer issues in an informed manner. However, because you can never know  everything, be willing to tell the customer that you have to do some research or will contact the AMSOIL Technical Department to  make sure you are giving them an accurate response, and look it up before  answering to their comments. Customers will appreciate your  thoroughness and professionalism.
  
3.) Follow up!
  
After the initial communication has ended, be sure to contact your  customer again to ensure that their concerns have been adequately addressed.  This does a few things. First, it confirms that the answer you provided was  adequate, which is not only good customer service,  but it helps you in answering similar questions in the future. Second, it allows the  customer to ask any follow up questions necessary, which expands your knowledge  base and leads to a more satisfied customer. Moreover, customers who feel taken  care of are more likely to become repeat customers of your AMSOIL business, impacting  your bottom line.
  
And last but not least;
  
4.) Beware of interrupting!
Titanic wireless operator Jack Phillips interrupted a wireless message from a nearby ship, telling them to shut up. In doing so, he prevented that ship from sending Titanic an iceberg warning Be careful about interrupting others, particularly your customers. They'll be especially upset if, while they're explaining a problem, you interrupt them and start offering a solution. This is what is called "premature elaboration." Don't fall into this trap, even if you have seen the same problem before. If you feel you have to interrupt, at least cut to the chase and tell the other person what you think his or her main idea was. That way, the other person at least can confirm or correct you, and in either case save time.

As to the method of communication preferred, you have to ask! Does your customer prefer to communicate in face-to-face meetings? On the phone? Email? Blog? Newsletter? A combination of these methods? Be sure to ask how many different communication modes they prefer. 

Remember, communication is King! Take 100% responsibility for the communication with your customers and watch your business 
increase!

Good Luck and Good Selling!
