To understand how we use (oil testing) an oil analysis to bridge the gap, schedule a meeting with Dale Cox and let’s talk about your fleet, your challenges, and some of the objectives you need to achieve. We outline recommendations to guarantee the desired results before you commit your team and the maintenance budget to switch to AMSOIL commercial products.

In our fleet maintenance recommendation, you’ll receive any must-haves you described, such as delivery times, package sizes, pricing, and how this relates to your goals. This also includes a “Proof-of-Concept” outline describing the steps, timeline, assumptions, and success criteria for how the AMSOIL brand can take your fleet maintenance program to the next level.

We will only undertake this engagement if we can agree to our mutual satisfaction that the value we are creating is greater than your current process.

Proof of Concept is a pilot project with one or more vehicles where we monitor the engine oil performance to achieve the desired outcome. You may have experience working with oil analysis testing, or this may be your first time. Our oil analysis testing will take a comprehensive look inside your engine, transmission, or gearbox to demonstrate that our products do exactly what we say they do… outperform the competition.

Contact us for our commitment to you before, during and after the “Proof of Concept” period.

Here’s a spoiler: the oil itself may not be the problem. This is a comprehensive oil test used to prove oil quality over a longer service life. The process may reveal some mechanical issues you may not be aware of.

Have you ever extended oil drain intervals before? It can be a strange feeling the first time. But trust me; it becomes a right of passage “feeling,” as our oil analysis will prove that you are in good hands with the AMSOIL team.

The steps to carry out the Proof-of-Concept are taken from previous clients’ processes that we learned from in past success. The outcome is so predictable that we could write the playbook on it. The essentials for the proof-of-concept are your engine oil and filter supplies and an oil analysis program. Our first steps will outline the two (or three) oil sample intervals, the quantity of oil and filters needed before beginning the Proof-of-Concept process. Every Proof-of-Concept is a custom-tailored program because, as a fleet manager, the vehicle operating situations and solutions you must achieve are always unique.

Gasoline Car & Truck Oil Change Maintenance

Fleet management question: “Our fleet vehicles are used for security patrol. Vehicle engines run 22 out of 24 hours daily, mostly idling to run the heater or the A/C. We are unsure if we should track engine hours or mileage to determine our oil change service. We want to extend our oil change service. How can AMSOIL help?”

Current products & oil change interval

Castrol motor oil, OEM spec oil filter, and oil service every 5,000 km. Present oil change tracked with hours or kilometer odometer reading.

Recommendation

Switch to AMSOIL Signature Series 5W-30 and use AMSOIL’s Ea® long-life oil filter. Take an oil sample at mileage intervals of 15,000 km and then again at 20,000 km.

Proof of Concept

The process results from both oil samples proved that AMSOIL was suitable for continued service until the next service interval.

At 25,000 km, the customer changed the engine oil and oil filter, even though our last oil analysis showed no reason to do so. The customer saw 5X the previous oil change service interval and was happy with these results.

Note: The AMSOIL Signature Series 5W-20 and Ea® oil filter are both warrantied by AMSOIL INC. for 40,000 km./ 24,000 miles or one year when used in gasoline engines.

Customer Satisfaction

AMSOIL extended the customer’s oil change service and proved that the oil change service could be tracked by odometer reading alone.

Summary

AMSOIL reduced the overall cost of oil change service by 38% and freed up more time for staff to perform other proactive maintenance.

Truck Turbo Diesel Engine Oil Change Maintenance

Heavy duty mechanic question: “We use the Dodge 3500/ 6.7 L turbo diesel trucks for long hauling. Our trucks travel 2,400 – 3,600 miles weekly, working nine to ten months of the year. We are currently changing our engine oil every month. We want to extend our engine oil service to keep our trucks on the road longer to avoid servicing between long-haul destinations. An oil change every month is too much to manage when the trucks are loaded. If possible, we need to keep within the budget, spending no more than we currently fund for the oil change service. How can AMSOIL help?”

Current products & oil change interval

Dodge service brand motor oil and engine oil filter, oil service every 7,000 miles. Oil change tracked with odometer reading in “miles.”

Recommendation

Switch to AMSOIL Signature Series Diesel 15W-40 synthetic motor oil and use AMSOIL’s Ea® long-life oil filter. Oil analysis is to be carried out two times at mileage intervals of 10,000 miles and 17,000 miles.

Proof of Concept

The process results from both oil analyses showed that the engine oil was suitable for continued use until the next oil change interval.

Note: The customer replaced the motor oil and oil filter at 20,000 miles. The final oil analysis showed no reason to change the motor oil.

Customer Satisfaction

AMSOIL proved three times (3X) longer drain interval for these turbo diesel engines to the customer’s satisfaction by keeping the trucks on the road working and spending less time for routine oil change service.

Summary

AMSOIL reduced the cost of oil change services by over 50%. The customer was delighted with the results and decided to change the transmission fluid for its longer service life and better protection.

Changing your fleet vehicle’s engine and transmission oil is a hassle and chews up precious time. It would help if you found a place to do the work, get the oil supplies (perhaps storing large quantities), and then spend time changing engine and transmission oil. What if you only had to check the oil dipstick over the next 12 months and thousands of miles and imagine you only see clean oil on the dipstick scale reading?

You can install AMSOIL synthetic lubricants in any application that currently uses conventional oil and ensure that your vehicles are getting optimal performance. Additionally, you’ll decrease fuel and oil consumption by reducing friction inside your engines and transmissions with the best synthetic lubricants.

Fleet lubricants and supplies are often viewed as a consumable rather than an asset. If you view it as an asset, you can make major improvements by upgrading the fluids in use. Many operators may not be fully educated on how lubricants can work for them as an asset. They know that what they’re doing today is getting them by and introducing any change is a high-stakes proposition.

We are a high-service organization. We don’t talk about the same things that our competitors talk about. We work hard to become true partners and help them improve their operations so their vehicles and equipment run longer and reduce energy consumption over the life of an asset. High-quality fluids can result in efficiency gains, reduce maintenance requirements, increase equipment availability and higher throughput.

Our people and expertise differentiate us from the competition, along with the performance of our products. We are eager to talk about how our approach can benefit your operations. Let’s explore the possibilities further.
