Default Anyone heard of AMSOIL?

Hey All,

This is a short emal that my buddy on the Supra list sent me...Check it out and for anyone who has direct experience....post it for other members....
he can get this stuff cheap too....

I am swiching onmy next oil change in the Supra and then the Lex..after engine flush....Amsoil has their own engine flush system.....

"How to save money on fuel… with AMSOIL.

It does little good worrying about whether fuel prices will go up or down. Very few people have control over the price of fuel at the pump. What you should focus on, then, are things you can control.

Foremost among these are the lubricants you use in your engine and drivetrain. Synthetic motor oils, transmission fluids and gear oils have a proven reputation of increasing fuel efficiency. AMSOIL has been the leader in synthetic lubrication for automotive service since 1972, hence its name "The First In Synthetics." Compared to conventional petroleum based lubricants, AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oils yield significant increases in fuel economy.

Not everyone is able to downsize their vehicle every time gas prizes go up, but whether you downsize or not, you'll want to switch to AMSOIL synthetic lubricants for more efficient, cleaner engine operation.

wow my first spam ;-)

You are lucky Dave isn't around as this has been covered hundreds of times!!

DaveGS4 uses it so I suggest searching for his name and Amsoil.

My valve body upgrade is getting installed today and I am putting Amsoil in instead

Search by Amsoil with my name as poster if you want to know about it as tranny fluid. Search Amsoil in general for other perspectives.

My thoughts - Amsoil has very good products but IMO they make some outrageous marketing claims. I think their synthetic engine oil is fine but no better than Mobile One.

The stuff they make I like is the synthetic tranny fluid that is an approved synthetic alternative to Toyoto/Lexus stuff.
