AMSOIL Series
3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil Is Correct Choice
For Jeff Foster Trucking
|
With the help of Jeff Foster Trucking Inc. of Superior,
WI, AMSOIL put its Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil
(HDD), as well as its Dual-Gard filtration system, to the test.
Ten 1996 Kenworth Class 8 tractors used as interstate
freight hauling vehicles and equipped with Cummins N-14 ESP3 diesel
engines participated in the demonstration. Five trucks equipped with
AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil,
AMSOIL BMK-12
Filter mounts and BE-110 By-Pass filtration elements utilized 120,000-mile
oil drain intervals,20,000-mile full- flow oil filter change intervals
and 40,000-mile By-Pass filter change intervals, while the other five
trucks continued using petroleum motor oil, utilizing 20,000-mile
oil and filter drain intervals.
The 10 Jeff Foster Trucking vehicles were identical in the following
areas:
1. Vehicle manufacturer,
model and model year 2. Engine model, displacement and year 3. Transmission and differential manufacturer
and model 4. Tires (brand and design) 5. Mileage (10,000-mile minimum;25,000-mile
maximum)
The objective of the field demonstration was to prove
that using AMSOIL Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil,
together with the AMSOIL Dual-Gard filtration system, would result
in a reduction in operating expenses when compared to the use of conventional
petroleum lubricants and filtration methods. Verification will be
demonstrated through increased fuel economy, extended drain intervals,
reduced oil consumption and reduced maintenance.
Both the AMSOIL motor oil and the petroleum product
were sampled and tested at 20,000-mile intervals in the areas of elemental
analysis (including wear metals, contaminates and additives), physical
properties (including viscosity, total acid number and total base
number) and contamination (including water, solids, glycol, oxidation,
fuel soot and fuel dilution). Oil condemnation limits vary due to
individual engine idiosyncrasies, operating conditions and time the
fluid has been in service.
The total mileage in this demonstration exceeded 2,548,580
miles, with the average over-the-road mileage for each demonstration
vehicle exceeding 217,527 miles. Even while making use of extended
drain intervals, the protection and fuel economy advantages of
AMSOIL
Series 3000 Synthetic 5W-30 Heavy Duty Diesel Oil met or exceeded
that offered by the petroleum products utilizing conventional 20,000-mile
fluid and filter change intervals. Furthermore, Jeff Foster Trucking
saves $61.90 in lubrication costs per vehicle by using
AMSOIL products.
Calculated to cover the entire Jeff Foster fleet of 200 vehicles,
that ’s a savings of $12,380.
The chart below demonstrates the fuel economy benefits
of the AMSOIL products. Overall,
AMSOIL provided a 3.065 percent increase
in fuel economy. For every 240,000 miles a single Jeff Foster truck
travels, it saves $1443 in fuel costs by using
AMSOIL products. Calculated
to cover the entire fleet, that’s a savings of $288,600 at an average
diesel fuel cost of $1.30/gal. Jeff Foster Trucking currently uses
AMSOIL Diesel Oil in its entire fleet of 200 trucks.
