| AMS-Oiler™
high-tech oil pre-charger | The
needs of automotive and industrial equipment have continued to place increasing
demands on the lubrication industry. Over the years, AMSOIL research and development
has responded to changes in the industry by developing products that keep AMSOIL
on the cutting edge. The new AMS-Oiler™ is the most recent example in a long
line of top-quality innovations from AMSOIL. Independent
studies have concluded that engine wear during start-up is a major concern. Even
though engine components remain dry for only a short period of time at ignition,
when this circumstance is multiplied by the 400 to 600 dry starts a year by the
average motorist, the potential for harmful metal-on-metal contact and significant
wear is great. The
AMS-Oiler™ is an oil pre-charger that puts an end to dry-engine starting.
Typically, an engine that sits idle for even a short period of time will operate
relatively dry upon starting before oil is able to fully lubricate the system.
In fact, the automotive industry estimates that up to 50 percent of engine bearing
wear occurs during the starting process. Indeed, the superiority of AMSOIL motor
oils minimizes start-up wear by clinging to the metal surfaces, but even more
can be done to concentrate the oil on the critical wear areas in an engine. With
the AMS-Oiler in place, 160 cubic centimeters of oil is injected directly on the
engine bearings and other wear sensitive surfaces upon turning of the key,
giving instant protection to vital engine components.

"stand-alone" configuration | The
AMS-Oiler™ outperforms gas and air charge systems. When the ignition key
is turned to the on position, an audible alarm sounds while a 12-volt DC solenoid
initiates the AMS-Oiler's operation. When the oil delivery process is complete,
the alarm ceases and the operator can start the engine. The engine can be started
at any time without damage to the AMS-Oiler™, however, the AMS-Oiler™
is recharged by the pressure generated by the engine's oil pump. Complete recharge
is accomplished within 40 seconds. The absence of a gas or air charge eliminates
the possibility of cross-contamination of dirty gas or air with the engine oil,
keeping the oil pure and performing optimally. The design of the AMS-Oiler™
reservoir also protects the unit from ambient temperature fluctuations. Specially
crafted by AMSOIL technicians, the AMS-Oiler™ is the culmination of extensive
research and development. “Our products are exceptional when it comes to
reducing wear during operation,” said Technical Director Dave Anderson. “The
weakest link in the chain, however, was still during startup. With the AMS-Oiler™,
we’re closing that last gap.” With
an extremely rugged chrome plated hi-grade carbon steel reservoir and anodized
aluminum base, the AMS-Oiler™ is crafted to withstand severe service and
to perform reliably in any personal, commercial or industrial application. Unlike
other pre-charger systems, the AMS-Oiler™ has no bulky moving parts which
need maintenance and does not rely on pressurized gas to function. The AMS-Oiler™
is a self contained, streamlined unit that has a mechanical life cycle exceeding
one million engine starts, with no maintenance required. The AMS-Oiler™ is
self-lubricating with an integrated overpressure protection device that protects
units from retaining pressures in excess of 90 p.s.i.

"bolt on" configuration | In
order to meet consumers’ needs, AMSOIL has designed two AMS-Oiler™ models
to cover all applications. The first model is crafted to attach directly to the
AMSOIL Dual-Remote and Dual-Guard By-Pass Filtration mounts, with the second model
designed as a stand-alone system for all other engine applications up to 500 CID
(cubic inch displacement)(8.2L). The AMS-Oiler™ retro-fit applicability to
the AMSOIL By-Pass filtration systems provides a convenient perch for quick installation.
For non by-pass-equipped engines, the stand-alone AMS-Oiler™ mounts easily
at any angle to accommodate virtually every engine. With
the new AMS-Oiler™, AMSOIL continues to make lubrication history, with quality
still the number one priority. |
