AMSOIL Synthetic 5W-40 Premium Diesel Oil resists breakdown and is recommended for the longest service interval established by the engine, vehicle or equipment manufacturer. Drain intervals may be extended when monitored by oil analysis.

It is compatible with all exhaust treatment devices and designed to extend the service life of particulate filters.
