Why use AMSOIL Synthetic Small Engine Oil?

Protect your investment with 100% Synthetic oil that is specifically formulated to solve the problems that plague small engines, including wear, power loss, oil consumption, harmful carbon deposits, and stuck rings and valves. It helps homeowners, landscapers, contractors, and other professionals get more work done and save money.

How is AMSOIL better than using automotive oil I can buy from the store?

Automotive oils are formulated with fuel economy in mind, not durability. That won’t cut it for small engines. Compared to liquid-cooled automotive engines; Small engines run hotter; operate under constant load; generate more oil-damaging contaminants; suffer from neglected maintenance; and are exposed to dirt, rain, snow, and other extremes.

The Truth: Most small-engine oils we’ve tested are nothing more than re-labeled automotive oils. Small engines put a lot of strain on oil than most people think. Using automotive oil in small engines could lead to potential engine damage, costly repairs and engine failure. 

AMSOIL Synthetic Small-Engine Oil isn’t merely a re-badged automotive oil. It delivers commercial-grade protection and outperforms conventional oils. We designed it from the ground up specifically for small-engine dependability. You can rest assured your engines are protected even during periods of extended use when there’s no time for scheduled maintenance.

How often should I change my lawn mower oil / small engine oil?

Any 4 stroke engine power equipment you have such as a lawnmower, lawn/garden tractor, zero-turn mower, leaf blower, pressure washer, or snowblower must have its oil changed according to our owners manual. 

AMSOIL Synthetic Small-Engine Oil is a long-life formulation that has repeatedly demonstrated its ability to safely exceed OEM drain intervals in the toughest conditions. Extensive severe-service testing proves its ability to provide service life of up to 200 hours or one year, whichever comes first. It provides an extra measure of protection when equipment goes longer between oil changes than is recommended by the OEM.

For Example: if your owner’s manual says to change your oil every 50 hours or 1 season, AMSOIL can provide you up to 200 hours of service life in one season before you need to change the oil! 

Simply put – If you want to extend the oil drain interval of your small engine for the season you can save time, money and extend the life of your equipment!
