GW, The data speaks for itself and Johnny is right on target. The test was designed as a Schaeffers oil/ diesel engine run.
Amsoil happened to be the oil in the test engine prior to the Schaeffers. I dove-tailed the tests for one very important reason; I have recommended AME for years to my analysis customers and bench testing of Schaeffers got my attention as a possible lower cost substitute. Instead of guessing I took 13+ months to test the product.
AME is one of Amsoils best products but a primarily petroleum base oil is as good or better in performance at a lower cost. Also without the MLM crap.I would not have believed the results without seeing them. Disclaimer I do not sell either product,or any for that matter.Note I used OAI for the trend analysis to preclude that being a angle to discredit a very straight forward test.
Finally you question the Amsoil not being taken to longer interval as the Schaeffers, Bob didn't pay for the Amsoil testing I did and I chose to share it because of my respect for Amsoils formulation.
I have tested Amsoil out to 23000 miles+ and it does fabulously in the cummins engines.
So does Schaeffers 7000 blend at 1/2 the retail cost.
