I would start using Amsoil ACD if it didn't only come in gallons. None of my cars take 4 quarts what's up with that?

It's made for large trucks. I have asked for quarts, but I don't think it's a huge priority.

I own (2) 1 gallon cars. No more qt bottles for me.....

I must have missed the memo on not having left over oil...
None of my engines take 5 quarts so I guess I better stop buying 5 qt jugs of oil..
If you want to use the oil, the LAST thing I'd worry about is having a 4 quart container with oil left in it.

I agree, and I have been asking amsoil for a couple years to put fluted ends on their filters. The ACD fits a great category for motor oils, thin enough for most motors and thick enough for sae30 applicaitons and diesels.

If you have a 5 quart sump, get one gallon of ACD and one quart of Series 3000. I'd have no problem running that, even though it's not recommended for extended use.
Are the additives and chemistry similar between the ACD and the Series 3000?
It's pretty much a matter of demand. The demand for qts of ACD just isn't there. Matter of fact, there isn't a high demand (at least in most places) for the ACD.
I carry none in stock, but can get it. To the best of my recall, I've sold one case of gallons in the past 3 years.
I will admit that is more than I have sold of the scooter oil!
And stocking stuff costs money.

Mixing them creates an unknown. Get enough ACD to fill the crankcase.

I concur - probably won't hurt...but...a real unknown.
I must be the king of ACD sales. I sell some every month. And it's gaining popularity. It's a really great oil.

I'll be testing out a 1.5-2 year OCI with 1 gallon of ASM and 1 quart of Series 3000. I have another quart of Series 3000 in the event that I need to top off the oil during that length of time.
There will be a UOA as well.
