Can AMSOIL Gear Oil Be Used In Wavetrac Differentials?

,

A reader asks: I have a Moser M9 built Camaro with a Wavetrac differential. Wavetrac specifies not to use gear oil containing friction modifiers. I can’t get the oil they recommend for a cost that makes sense. Does AMSOIL have a gear oil that will work for this diff?

Our answer: All of AMSOIL’s automotive gear oils have some friction modifier content. Based on what Wavetrac is saying, it might be wise to go with a different brand for this particular application.

AMSOIL’s synthetic gear oils such as Severe Gear and Long Life Series can certainly be used in most all original equipment differentials. They are designed for both limited-slip and non-limited-slip differentials. The exception is AMSOIL Severe Gear SAE 190 Racing Gear Oil. Friction modifiers are not needed as it is strictly a racing oil.

AMSOIL Synthetics Gear Oils can also be used in many aftermarket differentials with outstanding results. AMSOIL gear oils do contain ingredients to help provide seamless performance in clutch-type limited-slip differentials. Wavetrac’s differentials might be the only situation where this isn’t a benefit. Or at the least, a harmless addition. AMSOIL synthetic gear oils provide outstanding wear control and cooler operation in most any other differential design.

In the case of Wavetrac’s aftermarket differentials, they use helical-cut gears. Apparently, the Wavetrac design requires some friction between the gears in order to function correctly. Therefore, gear oils that have some friction modifier content might be too slippery for proper operation. It is important to note that “synthetic” gear oils are not the issue for Wavetrac. It is the addition of limited-slip additives.

To find the correct gear oil for your differential, see our application guide.

A High Zinc Motor Oil For Winter Use?

,

A reader asks: My daily driver pickup has a Chevy 283 engine with flat tappet cams. I use this truck all winter and it regularly sees sub-zero cold starts. So, I need a high zinc oil that flows fast in the winter. Will AMSOIL Z-Rod 10W-30 work well for winter use?

AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy-Duty Diesel OilOur answer: AMSOIL Z-ROD Synthetic 10W-30 does offer very good cold weather properties. But we have another option that will offer better winter start-up performance.

AMSOIL Series 3000 Heavy Duty 5W-30 Diesel Oil has very high zinc and phosphorus. It is also designed for gasoline engines. This 5W-30 has 1379 ppm of zinc and 1266 ppm of phosphorus. These amounts are more than adequate for flat tappet cam protection.

Series 3000 5W-30 has a cold-pour-point of -47°C (-51°F). Therefore, it will flow very well on those cold mornings, while delivering exceptional flat tappet cam wear control.

What About Z-ROD 10W-30 Winter Performance?

First off, AMSOIL Z-ROD Synthetic 10W-30 offers 1440 ppm of zinc and 1320 ppm of phosphorus. So, its flat tappet cam credentials are ideal.

Z-ROD 10W-30 has a cold-pour-point of -46°C/-51°F. On the surface, it looks like the winter performance between Series 3000 5W-30 and Z-ROD 10W-30 is identical. The cold-pour-points of the two oils are within 1°C.

The cold-pour-point is the temperature threshold where a motor oil stops flowing.

But there is more to the story.

Comparing “Cold Cranking Simulator” Values

An important indicator of a motor oil’s ability to perform in extreme cold is the “cold cranking simulator” (CCS) test. This is a widely recognized industry lab test. In the CCS test, a motor oil is cooled down to a specific temperature. Then a crankshaft is rotated in the chilled oil. The viscosity of the motor oil is measured in “centipoise”. (cP)

A lower viscosity number scored in this test means better oil flow in extreme cold.

Industry standards dictate that 5W-30 motor oils are measured at -30°C and 10W-30 oils are measured at -25°C.

Therefore, the CCS numbers for these two products are not measured on exactly the same scale. But we can extrapolate.

  • Series 3000 5W-30- CCS @ -30C is 5286 cP
  • Z-ROD 10W-30- CCS @ -25C is 5138 cP

Remember, the lower the score in this test, the better an oil performs in cold weather.

If Z-ROD 10W-30’s CCS test was measured at -30°C, it’s cold cranking performance would turn out to be about 15% worse than Series 3000 5W-30.

To sum up, both AMSOIL Series 3000 5W-30 and Z-ROD 10W-30 offer very good winter performance. The 5W-30 has a distinct edge in terms of winter-cold-cranking performance and would be our choice for this scenario.

Which Motor Oil For Generac LP And Natural Gas Generators?

AMSOIL 5W-30 Synthetic Small Engine OilA reader asks: Our company has several Generac generators that run on liquid propane and natural gas. These generators run in severe winter temperatures and summer heat. Do you have an engine oil that will be suitable for all-season use and is compatible with LP and natural gas fuels?

Our answer: Yes, we have the perfect motor oil for your LP/natural gas-powered Generac generators. AMSOIL 5W-30 Synthetic Small Engine Oil ticks every box. This product is a high-quality replacement (and a tremendous upgrade) for the conventional Generac SAE 30 Motor Oil.

What Makes A Good Motor Oil For Generac Generators?

Here are the features that make AMSOIL 5W-30 Synthetic Small Engine Oil the perfect oil for generator applications.

  • Suitable for engines powered by LP, natural gas, gasoline or diesel fuels
  • Delivers commercial-grade wear protection
  • Pours down to -44°C (-47°F) for excellent winter start-up protection
  • Robust synthetic chemistry withstands long days under load
  • Resists oil consumption and deposit formation under extreme heat
  • Contains anti-rust and corrosion ingredients for protection during periods of inactivity

Can Car Engine Oil Be Used In LP Or Natural Gas Generator Engines?

Automotive motor oils are not suitable for liquid propane or natural gas-powered generators. Car motor oil would tend to break down relatively quickly and be prone to oil consumption. Passenger car motor oils are simply not designed to work with LP or natural gas fuels.

To sum up, we can’t think of any reason as to why AMSOIL 5W-30 Synthetic Small Engine Oil would be anything but perfect for your generators.

We can sell AMSOIL 5W-30 Synthetic Small Engine Oil at wholesale prices in Canada and the United States. We ship from 13 warehouses with  free shipping on qualified orders. Request a price list using the form on this page or call us at 1-800-748-5781.

2020 Ski-Doo Snowmobile Engine Oil Recommendations

2020 Ski-Doo Summit X

Photo Credit: Sledmagazine.com

Here are our oil recommendations for the 2020 Ski-Doo snowmobile line-up.

Ski-Doo’s product line sees modest changes for 2020. However, one of the big highlights is the revamping of Expedition line of touring/utility sleds. These models now ride on Ski-Doo’s top-shelf REV Gen4 chassis. Another interesting addition is the optional “Expert” package for the Summit X mountain sled. The Expert package is tailored for serious back-country powder carving.

There is an interesting Ski-Doo-related update regarding AMSOIL products. Ski-Doo now dictates that injector oils must meet the JASO FD oil standard for their E-TEC 2-stroke engines. AMSOIL Interceptor meets and exceeds the JASO FD specification. Therefore, the JASO FD spec has now been added to the Interceptor label.

Below is a list of the entire 2020 Ski-Doo snowmobile line along with the correct AMSOIL synthetic oil recommendation for each model and engine option.

AMSOIL Synthetic Products For 2020 Ski-Doo Snowmobile Models

AMSOIL Interceptor Synthetic 2-Stroke Oil For E-TEC Engines
Interceptor delivers all of the performance and protection offered by BRP 2T E-TEC Full-Synthetic Oil. However, Interceptor is available at a lower price (request a price list with the form on this page). Interceptor has been fully and thoroughly tested in E-TEC engines. Our customers have logged hundreds of thousands of real-world miles with Interceptor in E-TEC motors. The clean RAVE valves, exceptional performance and world-class protection leaves no doubt. AMSOIL Interceptor is the ultimate E-TEC injector oil.

AMSOIL Synthetic 2-Stroke Injector Oil
Why not replace XPS 2T Carb Premium Mineral Oil with full-synthetic injector oil at a lower price? AMSOIL Synthetic Injector Oil is perfect for any recreational or work snowmobile. It is even suitable for older Ski-Doo models with RAVE valves. Interceptor is our dedicated E-TEC oil, but this product can be used in any other Ski-Doo 2-stroke engine. AMSOIL Injector Oil delivers clean operation, outstanding performance and great wear protection at a value price. It can also be used as a premix.

AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke 0W-40 Synthetic Oil
An upgrade over XPS 4T 0W-40 Synthetic Oil. Excellent for ACE 600 and 900 4-stroke engines. Designed for both turbo-charged and non-turbo engines. Pours down to -51°C (-60°F) for fast cold-start protection. Withstands extreme heat, heavy loads and long days in the saddle.

Will AMSOIL Release Signature Series 0W-16 Motor Oil?

AMSOIL OE 0W-16 Synthetic Motor OilA reader asks: Will AMSOIL be coming out with a Signature Series 0W-16 oil anytime soon?

Our answer: It will almost certainly happen, but we wouldn’t expect it in the immediate future. For now, just the Honda Fit and certain Toyota Camry models take 0W-16 motor oil. So it goes without saying that the market for 0W-16 motor is currently very tiny. As of now, AMSOIL offers the value-packed OE 0W-16 Synthetic Motor Oil.

We expect that many more automakers will start to suggest 0W-16 for some models in the next few years. This would likely prompt AMSOIL to expand the 0W-16 offerings to the higher-end Signature Series and XL Series.

If auto manufacturers make a significant move to 0W-16 motor oil in 2021-22 (and that is plausible), it would expand the 0W-16 market overnight. But again, until more engines are designed for 0W-16 motor oil, we would expect that AMSOIL will offer only the OE Series version.
