Subject: Amsoil Guy? IP: Logged
Message: I have changed all the fluids in my dakota to amsoil synthetics. Works great with 195K miles. There is one question I have. I have a mini bike and I just bought the amsoil interceptor 2-cycle oil. There is no mixing charts that I have found on the yamalube that is the only benefit of yamalube and that is the chart they provide, lol, I don't want to use that stuff. I was wondering how much interceptor would I need to add to properly mix one gallon? Is there a chart online someonewhere? I found one but it didn't download on my computer. I just need to know how much to the gallon, if you could do that I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Two-cycle engine designs are changing and it's absolutely imperative that AMSOIL provides the best possible products for those new designs.
Direct fuel injection and exhaust power valves have been incorporated in two-cycle engines in efforts to improve performance, reduce emissions and improve fuel efficiency. As a result, we're seeing leaner fuel-to-oil ratios and hotter-running engines, up to one-hundred and twenty degrees Fahrenheit hotter. This places additional demands on two-cycle oils.
Amsoil Interceptor 2-Cycle Oil eliminates exhaust power valves gumming up and sticking!
We took orders for over 40 cases at the NorthEast PowerSports Rally.
All of the ATV and Snowmobile Club Members PRAISE our oils.

| Amsoil = Better MPG and Better Performance IP: Logged
Message:
I live in Manhattan, so the only time I ride an ATV or Snowmobile is if I borrow a friends or rent one. For that reason I can not give you any comparative MPG improvements.
__________________________________________________
However, I have an onboard indash computer in my Lexus that monitors my Total Miles, My Current MPG, My Average MPG, my average MPH, my MPG since the last fill-up, etc.
I purposefully ran the odometer to 9,000 miles using Castrol GTX from the Quickie-Lube (changing the oil every 3,000 miles) ... before I switched to Amsoil 100% True Synthetic SAE 5w-30.
I do this with every new vehicle ... to test the oils by performing Used Oil Analysis, to monitor how much quieter it is using Amsoil, to monitor the fact that the engine runs cooler using Amsoil, and to monitor any positive changes in MPG using Amsoil.
I must see positive results with my own eyes to be able to truthfully talk about Amsoil.
The truth ...
After switching from Castrol GTX (at 9,000 miles) to Amsoil ... my average MPG (per tank) driving a combination of city and highway (living in Manhattan, NYC and commuting to my office across the GW Bridge in New Jersey) went from an average of 16.2 MPH over 9,000 miles using Castrol, to 18.1 MPG for the next 15,000 miles using Amsoil, averaging approximately 26+/- MPH.
18.1 MPG using Amsoil ... vs. 16.2 using Castrol ... a 13% increase
My vehicle currently has 24,000 miles on the odometer, the engine runs cooler, the engine runs quieter, and I am getting better gas mileage.
FYI ... The last long distance all highway miles trip I drove was Lake George, New York and back, 200 miles each way, and I actually averaged 24 miles to the gallon on that trip ... using Amsoil ... and I believe I beat the window sticker ... and that was driving 75 mph +/-.
__________________________________________________
I have experienced the same (or similar) results in my last 3 "new" vehicles (all three had in-dash on-board computers), and a "used" Jeep Wrangler that was purchased with 21,000 miles on the odometer when purchased, testing between 21k and 30k using dino, and then testing from 30k forward using Amsoil. The Jeep tests were less scientific and factual. The Jeep did not have the computer system.
__________________________________________________
Industry tests have shown improved fuel economy of 2 - 5% in vehicles using synthetic lubricants vs conventional "dino" lubricants.
However, it has been my experience that most people that switch see between 4% - 10% increase in mpg.
My results were excellent ... a 13% Increase!
I guess it depends on the vehicle.
