Amsoil

I did a maintenance top-end and two ring piston update on a ski-doo last summer that used Amsoil.  The pipe, exhaust valves, & combustion chamber were clean with little to no carbon.  Aside from a little water in the fuel wear, the pistons, rods and bearings looked great.  Based on different teardowns Amsoil synthetic two stroke oil is what it claims to be.

I personally don't use Amsoil, but if my favorite brand raises thier cost much more I too will make the switch.

The oil that I use is far superior to Amsoil (proven in many lab tests, and ASE tests), however; Amsoil is probably "the best for the money" averaging over $20.00 a gallon cheaper.

Surprisingly Royal Purple is at the bottomof the list, and Motul pulls in just above them, just shows it is not always in the name!!!!

To see a copy of these federal breakdown and performance tests, stop by the shop-the four stroke line of oils are quite surprising in thier results as well-Honda factory oil was the bottom of that list-Maxima shines above them all.

We do sell Amsoil in our shop, and if I didn't believe it was a good product I would not support them.
